Here are some photos
showing the
history of the making of these beautiful
doors........
Enjoy !
|
|
|
Here I scanned some of the off cuts of the lumber
used in the doors
|
|
|
pieces
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and more pieces
|
Each door has 4 coats of varnish oil
|
the oil soaks in for over an hour before wiping off
the excess
|
and the cure for at least 4 days between
coats
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here the bookmatched panels are being hand
sanded
|
and stops are precut for the panels
|
the class is clear, tempered, and insulated
|
the panels are oiled Before they are
placed in the door ....... 4 coats
|
|
|
|
|
|
all are a bookmatch and beautiful
|
the panels "float" in the frame and are caulked in
with a siliconized latex that turns clear
|
here we are making the jambs out of
Mahogany
|
they are made of two pieces of 1" material
|
|
|
|
|
|
........ then sanded ......
|
then oiled ....... 4 coats here too !!
|
here is a close-up of the Mahogany of the
Astragal
|
....... it is oiled several times too.
