Thank you all! Due to time and weather i will fill the gaps w mortar and paint the door w linseed in due time 🙏🏼 love and respect ✊🏻 ..the people talking about wood movement, don't worry its all going to be fine. I've considered every possible out come.
i was wondering how you would even fill in the gaps, i was thinking spray foam? but how do you cover that up? some kind of scribed trim? but yeah, mortar, duh.. love it
As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement th-cam.com/users/postUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!
Considering all the amusing reveal shots, this could be called the Diresta Pet Door.... 😎 Seriously, wonderful piece of craftsmanship. Should easily go another 200 years.
One of the first TH-cam channels I watched was back when you were in NYC turning discarded items into functional things, like old lumber into a NYC skyline bench.
Jimmy, I used to think that your videos were sped up, which made them more interesting, but now I'm thinking that, that's actually how fast you work. BTW nice build.
That's a step or two up from the Home Depot. Well done! I think I've seen enough Diresta videos to know when Jimmy is saying "thank YOU", just by how he throws material around.
Such a delight, honor & responsibility to live in a generational property & to make it better in tasteful ways that enhance its charm, beauty & ambiance, adding new wonders, mystery & splendours. Thank you for sharing & inspiring!
Why would I care if he used a level? I have 12 different levels in sizes from 6-feet down to 8-inches and I don't need Jimmy Diresta to remind me how to use them.
This is so cool! You make difficult stuff like this look easy enough for me to do myself… even though I don’t have a welder, metal band saw, or a basement.
Good for another 200 years. Nice work building it to fit in the with style of an old house. Interesting how a flea market find from years ago finally was just the right part.
You've managed making a cellar door interesting, well done. I wish you, your family and colleagues a happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year. Thank you so much for all your video's.
The different items you make really show off your skill and versatility as an artisan. The stuff you make is just so incredibly beautiful...its functional art at its finest! Nothing but mad respect for your skill and creativity!
When I'm doing a project that looks old I like to take a torch to the zinc hardware until it gets red hot. It leaves it with a black patina that can be waxed, lacquered or just left to rust. It's an easy way to come up with some old looking hardware.
👍👍💪💪⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Aways the best Maker content on YT ….. congratulations on all of your successes, have been a fan since ‘12 when I first came across your TV shows on CCTV while living in China 😂😂👍👍
Nice job! Looks just like my basement entry, stone foundation, pvc pipes above door and all at my 200 yr. old Vt. home. I also need to build a new door.
This cellar entrance looks eerily similar to one which I had started a very similar door replacement for but never finished - now I see how it could have gone! In particular, your welded pin-into-foundation mounting scheme is a simple yet very effective manner of attachment and one which I had not imagined for my build. Excellent concept and build. I too am a fan of boiled linseed oil for some of my wood projects.
Hey all - Just a quick update to let you know that My Giant DiResta Razors are Now Live Here: imakeny.com/products/diresta-razor-blade
Thank you all! Due to time and weather i will fill the gaps w mortar and paint the door w linseed in due time 🙏🏼 love and respect ✊🏻 ..the people talking about wood movement, don't worry its all going to be fine. I've considered every possible out come.
It needs a Diresta cat door...😀
Freaking awesome, I need me a farm house, love the medieval aspect of it
I hope your blacksmith-ed handle makes it another 200 years, nice work.
i was wondering how you would even fill in the gaps, i was thinking spray foam? but how do you cover that up? some kind of scribed trim? but yeah, mortar, duh.. love it
Awesome build 🙌
Awesome project. Now build a workshop down there and you’ll have your original NY workspace back …haha.
I love your assistants!

beautiful door!!
where the hell have you been! ive been worried sick!
@11:56 I like to think that ToT was tearing up a bit....a lil' bit, a lil' bit. No (weirdly satisfying) blue marker, no uniform chips.... 😂
Tony!!! Xoxox 😃
Man, I sure like that ! And the cats love it too.
Estimado Jimmy, viendo como trabajas las cosas parecen fáciles. Es un placer ver tus vídeos. Saludos.
This descent of stone stairs ending with such a door... It feels like entering the caves of Moria !!! It's just beautiful!!!
Always impressed with the quality of your work.
Thank you! 👊🏼
Has a very nice closing and secured sound that you can readily identify when coming and going

Beautiful. Love the whole process. 😀
Thank you!

That is such a cool looking door! Love it!
😊😊😊👊🏼👊🏼❤️
Nice door that should strengthen the rubble foundation. Opening and closing the doors for our six cats makes me feel like a doorman in a cathouse.
The sound at 19:33 was super cool.
Great work!
Me agrada ver a este amigo,me recuerda a mi tío Pancho" entran,a todo le hacen,chambones pero aguerridos.
Felicidades..
I love the subtle xylophone when hammering in the set nails for the door frame. Gave me a little smile on a Monday lunch break, thanks.
I like the door
Good morning Mr Diresta
This door makes me wish we all lived in 200+y/o farm houses, with stacked stone foundations
Well done sir!
Это и есть рай на земле. СПАСИБО.
I had to rewatch 19:33 a few times. The pitch increasing as the nail was driven in was sooooo satisfying!
I live in earthquake country. I cant thank you enough for the metal shoring to the exit near that facade or real stone wall. Woot! Lemmie outta here!
For the hundredth time........here's a Jimmy video I'm not interested in watching. 5 Minutes Later....OMG!!! That is SO COOL!!! I love this video!! DD
unique anchoring system. fine lookin door. can not beat metal frame. thanks for the visit
Nice to see that cats everywhere are as indecisive regarding the desire to be inside or outside or inside =D
(Remember your videos when you spoke back to the Trolls? Those were good fun........as they all are). super video!
Very impressive. You make it look so easy and only took 20 minutes plus the time to edit the video.
Jimmy, I used to think that your videos were sped up, which made them more interesting, but now I'm thinking that, that's actually how fast you work. BTW nice build.
Ok for 200...
Congrat's as ever Mr.
Frankly, Jimmy, you are now living my dream. A wonderful workshop and beautiful kittens, well done work
That's a step or two up from the Home Depot.
Well done!
I think I've seen enough Diresta videos to know when Jimmy is saying "thank YOU", just by how he throws material around.
🤣👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Jimmy you are the best I've ever seen. Thank you for you kindness to share.
Such a delight, honor & responsibility to live in a generational property & to make it better in tasteful ways that enhance its charm, beauty & ambiance, adding new wonders, mystery & splendours. Thank you for sharing & inspiring!
First time I’ve seen Jimmy pick up a level. Thought he never needed one. Great lesson to all DIY guys like myself. If he needs one, you do too.
Why would I care if he used a level? I have 12 different levels in sizes from 6-feet down to 8-inches and I don't need Jimmy Diresta to remind me how to use them.
I'm so glad the house didn't fall and now is re-supported with a one of a kind! Looks great👊🏼
LOL “When your door is a structural element of the building “
A nice surprise and a gift at the time of Advent. 👏Good luck and happiness to all. 🎁 Warm greetings from Berlin 🙂
bonjour diresta
beau résultat magnifique travail
amitiés et respect ✊

now that is a different way to fix a frame . I never would have thought of that in a million years nice one
This is so cool! You make difficult stuff like this look easy enough for me to do myself… even though I don’t have a welder, metal band saw, or a basement.
And just like that, good for another 200 years!
good -better -best -never let it rest until your good is gooder and your better is best.
Hello . I look at your work with pleasure. Very good. Hello from Russia
I just love your style man. You Sir, are an old school Renaissance Man.
For a moment I thought we were back in NYC. Awesome door, should last another 200!
Good for another 200 years. Nice work building it to fit in the with style of an old house. Interesting how a flea market find from years ago finally was just the right part.
wow!!!you are amazing !!!! so many talents in one movie !!!! congratulations on your skills !!!!! greetings
I’m so glad you opened and closed the door (40 times) as I don’t know they did that. 😂👍
You've managed making a cellar door interesting, well done. I wish you, your family and colleagues a happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year. Thank you so much for all your video's.
Amazing work and "Diresta" is history 👏🏻!
Best made door for that spot ever.
I am just discovering you show and channel and I am very impressed thus far. I will definitely do more research and watch more shows.
Nice work. Another guy with many talents. Looks funny how you throw with tools and don't mess with anything. :D
У Диресты все как всегда на высоте :)))
Great project. Hats off to the video editor, excellent production.
Thank you!! And thank you again 😇
Man when he pulled back the card board I was like wow wait a min. That's a treasure.
men of few words are a delight. The door says everything. Capital!
Love how the Little Crew follow you around 😀
We know that section of the house is supported for another hundred years. Awesome job.
Haaaa ! Woodwork, metal work, welding, blacksmithing ! Jimmy is back to his roots ! Lovely job my friend, I wish you the best for the end of 2021 !🥳
I love those old houses with the crazy fieldstone basements.
your Minecraft skills are next level
The different items you make really show off your skill and versatility as an artisan. The stuff you make is just so incredibly beautiful...its functional art at its finest! Nothing but mad respect for your skill and creativity!
That door will still be there in 2121 . Nice work !
i think its so awesome your cats have a doorman.
Loving the heavy duty industrial style of that door.
DANG ! That looks great. Works good with the stone.
Looks really nice with these stone walls!
these are my favorite diresta projects.
It's a pleasure to watch your work and learn.thank you.Kostas Greece
MANA AT WORK!
want your T-shirt...
excellent work..

Love this, greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
Wow jimmy. Very nice job love the blacksmith work. Should last quite a long time.
Soon your house will have every door custom built by you. Great work as usual. One day I'll come to walk through all those doors.
I thought of something clever to say but decided something simple would suffice. You’re my hero. Great work Jimmy!
😇
This new door will last 500+ years, congrats.
Amazing friend!! Cê ta doido!!!
We go from wood working to medal forging in 2.2 seconds. Love it.
You forgot to emblazon it with “DiResta”!! 🤣
Well done Jimmy, another great do it yourself project and a nice break from the norm.
yeah, I was waiting for the huge Diresta Lettering
you gonna love all of the rust in the upcomming years :)
Cellar Door. Beautiful words, beautiful door.
Great work as always, condolences to your brother and his family
The little "It fits" at 18:38 was perfect
Tak ty si velky pan...krasna prace a pozdrav z evropy!🇨🇿
Shouldn't have to worry about any basement break ins. That is solid.
I love the band saw flip, the grinder throws, the best way to feed the trolls!! Lol!! 😆🤜🏻🤛🏻
Jimmy, you're a real treasure. I love watching your videos so I ordered the RAZOR BOX. Tis the Season.
Fantastic build, I love the rustic feel with stone walls and the lever mechanism is lovely. The best part is the cats passing through 😍
👍👍💪💪⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Aways the best Maker content on YT ….. congratulations on all of your successes, have been a fan since ‘12 when I first came across your TV shows on CCTV while living in China 😂😂👍👍

Well who doesn’t appreciate that….great video 😃

So cool, can learn something new in every one of your videos. Thanks
The sound at 19:33 was so satisfying
Fit for a castle, and whats more, for once it doesn't say DIRESTA, well done mate.
This is in my top 5 Diresta makes videos. Really nice craftsmanship.
