    I know how much work it is to film & create videos. It amazes me that people are shocked when the vlogs ask for some help. They are FREE for most of us & if you don’t want to buy a coffee, don’t. I love your vlogs & I hope that you Ed can get sponsorships, you deserve them!

    There have been Several great suggestions for people who can help, even if you have the machinery (which you should based on your projects), they can help you figure out how to use them and how to construct the doorframe. We all love a crossover collaboration with our favorite TH-cam channels. Personally it gives me joy to see the people I follow doing joint projects.

    Jeeze, the comments are brutal. Come on people, you think Edd and Anna didn't agonize over asking for help? You think asking the Pethericks carpenter for help is a solution? Bordeaux is not close to Ernee. Have a heart. Good job on the tiling, Edd. Take care of your back.

    If it’s what all the craftsman in the area charge it’s not “over the top pricing” it’s call the going rate for a craftsman service. They’ve already purchased the expensive equipment you’re talking about and are experts at doing the work. That’s why it’s expensive.

    It makes more sense to use a new door if it costs less and you can get it in, that home isn't one that you've been careful to go with period pieces everywhere. Then take time to learn how to use the blue door at a future project, and you don't need to delay in this one any longer.

    Ceramic tile is rarely completely flat from my experience, but it can still turn out beautiful, and no one can tell the difference. It is always best to get all walls and ceilings primed after having sanded them, as the porous nature of the taping cement will absorb ambiant moisture and produce unwanted shrinkage. You’re doing a fine job of it all.

    I do have to say, I wonder how Dan would feel about everyone happily offering his time and services when he is working himself sick on his own project. He might or might not help, and he is certainly a good guy. But you all are setting him up to get bad publicity if he feels he cannot do it. I am not autre that is helpful to either Dan nor Edd. Just offering another point of view. Each of us should make our own choice in giving while considering our own circumstances. I will do what I can or cannot do and am sure others will make the same choices.
    And from Edd’s point of view. Give if you can and want to. Or don’t. Watch if you want to. But don’t watch any of these channels and shame the people who present them. I am glad there is not an audience out there to preach to me. It would be uncomfortable. And, yes, this may seem like preaching, but all these vloggers put themselves out there for us to enjoy. I thank them.

    That unevenness just happens with large format tiles. It's called lippage. That's by installers lay them on the running bond or 1/3 to 2/3 layment. It lessens the lippage. The leveling spacers help too.

    To go with a new door would not be the end of the world. This is only a rental. I could understand it if it was the passion project. Don't stress about a fancy blue door that people are asking for. If you can't afford it, you can't afford it. We all have to live and work within our means. And it's tough for everyone at the moment.
    Keep up the good work. I can't wait to see what you come up with next. I will never forget when you showed us this house. I thought you had lost the plot. I should have known better. Your work is meticulous.

      I hope that you get your tools. This house will not be your last. You are a renovator! Dan has the tools that you need and can help you, or maybe another blogger can help. All of Dan's tools were donated. Keep talking about your needs, and maybe , in exchange for good PR a company will give you a good price. Bring some money for Dan he has hired help to pay. Good luck.

      @@subbookkeeper Ok, I guess amount of subscribers makes you a royalty and gives you priviledge to somebody elses time, in your opinion?
      How many times do you see youtube videos: "we are very busy but this other youtuber I don't know wants us to do something for him now".
      Do you live in some youtube fantasy world?

    It is a big heavy door. You would need at least one if not 2 helpers, 2 tall ladders. A means to get it to the house to get everything level and true so door will swing and close easily. Depending on cost, I would go with a good contractor.
    Floor looks great.

    Festool is one of the top of the line woodworking tools. A tablesaw, planer, router table, and Hepa vacuum sawdust extraction system are four of the most needed tools in a woodworking shop. The festool chop saw (1500.00$ US) is also required in the shop. Festool domino jig for assembling the door frame. Numerous clamps, festool clamp/work table, misc sanders, sustainer boxes/kits for various power/hand tools..... my 60 years in homebuilding/remodeling Bosch was my choice as a- top brand. At 80, still have 10 inch portable table saw and 12 inch chop saw. Very reliable and less than half price of Festool. Always wanted Festool brand , not something that I would use out on jobs. Definately shop tools of high quality. As to the doorframe, it will be interested in watching videos of woodworking, and your increasing knowledge of woodworking/shop use. From Oregon, USA, go with the blue door!

    Dan Preston has a lot of interesting machinery at Chaumont I wonder if you asked him maybe he would help you build the frame for your door maybe he knows how to and can help you build it. He has all kinds of specialist equipment it would save you the cost. It's a thought He has friends you could stay with I am sure take a few days. Otherwise the only other is Chateau du Theil in Ussel has a few brilliant talented folk over there sure if you asked they might help you they have all kinds of equipment and skill sets. Another channel that may be able to help is ' Broad_Maker' and they are closer to you in Bordeaux. I am sure you can learn it on your own but making new friends is sometimes useful if you supply the materials. The floors look great I think it will settle the bumps maybe it's the cold weather and no heating inside makes the tiling grout funny or the heating elements. Will you be using this tile for the splashback in the kitchen or something else? Look forward to seeing the end results of the floor hoping they will settle on their own. Well done Edd and Anna :)
