Inspired by some byproduct from a recent order at work and Sam Layton's recent interior door build, I've started building a new back door for the house. I have in mind a six lite cottage style door with a v groove bottom panel, possibly a curved top rail. I'm still playing with that aspect in my head, may come down to time. Speaking of which not sure I have enough of it to document the process as well as Sam did, but here are a few pics of the progress so far. The entire door will be made from the dumpster! Its a lamination of stock milled to .600" from 3/4" floor boards, all R&QWO. Not sure you can see the figure on the rough pieces for the panels. These I got before they wen't through the molder. Its mostly very subtle figure or plain rift sawn for the frame parts, but some real heavy figured QS for the panels.
Well, so far I have the stock glued up for all the rails, stiles and bars. I'll probably let it sit a few weeks stickered to give it a chance to really stabilize. Gives me a chance to finalize the design. One thing for sure, it is going to be a heavy one!
