Here is the
History of how this door was made
!!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here is the rough lumber to make 2 doors
|
.. some tricks are used to make the small center
rail
|
Here, I have all the pieces fitted..............
then the door is glued up and cures for 3 full days
|
We then surface sand it and then hand finish sand
the entire door
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since the door is heavy Mahogany, I joint the edges
with a power plane rather then a jointer
|
when it's ready ...... I leave my signature
|
The makers "mark"
|
Here is the door frame oiled with 4 coats of varnish
oil and waiting for glass and panels
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The panels are marine grade ply, edged with solid
lumber .....
|
..... then I vacuum press on the figured and
bookmatched Striated Fir
|
The "thick" veneer is 5/16" on each side and then
raised with a chamfer detail
|
Before we oil the panels
