HOW TO BUILD A DOOR ON A BUDGET
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 พ.ย. 2019
- Whats going on everybody. In this video i'll be showing you how to build a door out of 2x6 and 2x8 construction grade lumber. I had most of this wood laying around so it was relatively cheap for me to build. most of the tools i used i find to be faily common in most home garages at least in some sort of variation.

thanks everyone and I'll catch you on the next one. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Rad build! I know all the comments are old now, but it blows me away the people thinking they're owning you by pointing out all the expensive tools.
I just built my first interior door basically by watching your video closely many times, using the tools that i have available to me, and love how it turned out.
So annoying how whiny people are and need shit spoon fed to them.
Thanks for the inspirational video! I'll be making 5 more of these!
Thanks man, that is so cool that you built your own! I really want to remake this video just to do a better job at explaining my process. This was one of my first few videos on my channel and can say it isn’t the best, so I’m glad I was able to give you some inspiration, and enough guidance for you to be able to tackle it. 🤘🏻
Those whiny tool comments always crack me up, they are typically from people who have no actual plan on building anything, and I feel like that was a trendy fad that was going around. I felt that I used fairly basic tools for anyone that actually likes to dabble in diy woodworking projects. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Hit me up on I.G. 👊🏻
I made custom wood doors for a living for 4 years, But I had all the correct tools to do it. Pretty cool seeing it all done with a small planer, table saw and a router. Looks great
Right on! Yeah I’ve definitely acquired a lot more tools since I made this door. But sometimes it’s fun to make things with some more basic stuff.👍🏻
Really enjoyed your build and video. For some reason I’ve been watching lots of door videos lately, and I think yours is the most approachable of the quality door videos I’ve seen.
Thanks for the great feedback! This was one of my earlier videos, and I’ve been wanting to re-make a door and explain my process more in depth. I’m glad it made it seem approachable because it definitely is.🤘🏻
Absolutely did a great job. Thanks for sharing. Beautiful door.
Charles Biller thank you!
I just discovered your channel this evening. I've already watched several of your videos. Great job! I'll be looking forward to seeing all the new ones in the future.
Thank you so much for the positive feedback! Be patient I’m not the best with filming and editing videos! 😂😂 again thank you for the feedback and talking the time to leave me a comment!
Outstanding Job that you should be very proud of.
I have been building custom cabinets for 15 years and I still learned some tricks from your video.
Also need to make one 48" wide for the walkout door of my new basement wood shop, So Thank You
Thanks for your comment ken! I'll be making some door for my house in the near future, so I figured this would be a good way to practice.
The door looks great. One tip would be to resaw the stiles, flip and laminate them. This will help with warping. Solid rails and stiles for big doors usually warp pretty bad. I like how you did the stop after the hardware was installed. Its a good idea to use a thin cardboard shim between the door and stop when nailing it off. This allows room for the finish and seasonal expansion without binding.
Thank you for the tips! I kinda did this as an experiment, and to get some practice. I really figured it would bow over time, but surprisingly it’s held up nice.
That's brilliant. All the doors in my house are crap but it would cost me thousands to replace them - unless I could do this. Well done. 👍
Great Job and the Door look Great. Thank you for sharing the build
Thanks a lot, and I appreciate the kinds words!👍🏻
Beautiful work man I appreciate the time and craftsmanship.
Thanks a lot! 👍🏻
This is a really terrific build. I enjoyed watching this video and the editing is very good I might add.
Thanks a lot, and I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Beautifully executed Rob. I'm renovating a 200 year old house, and I've been contemplating how to build some replacement doors. This was a wonderful break down on the process. Thanks so much for sharing!
cavokdotcom sounds like a fun project!
Rob Brewer thanks! It's equal measures of fun and frustrating at the moment, but having heat at the end of the week will help tip the scales to good again. :)
cavokdotcom yeah I know all about those frustrating times! 😂 but I think that’s what makes it worth it at the end of the project!
@@brewbuilds Ah, agreed! Is your shop a new build?
cavokdotcom kind of. I had the the shop built the same time as my house about a year and a half ago.
A practical, relatively simple, well done project!!!
Thank you! 👍🏻
To the single young ladies out there. Look for a nice guy with skills. You'll be glad you did.
😂😂👍🏻
What a great looking door, thank you for making this video. Very helpful ❤
Thank you, and you bet. I’m glad you found it helpful. 👍🏻
Well done, brother. Looks great
Roger F thanks for the positive feedback man.👍🏻
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
I have to say that is a awesome looking door. I been wanting to make a door (doors) for my basement.
Thanks for the positive feedback! Funny you say that I used this door as practice, because I plan on making some doors for my basement too. I figured my shop bathroom door would be a good place to start, and with some cheaper lumber. I am super impressed with how well this door has held up this past year. I’ve had zero bowing. Thanks again for taking the time to comment!👍🏻
Awesome job sir! And it does look simple and easy!!
Thank you! Pretty simple techniques, and nothing to fancy. Thanks for watching.
Before you build a door out of construction grade lumber, know that the moisture level of most construction lumber is probably going to be about 12 or 13%. After you do all the work and put it in a finished environment, it is going to dry down to between 6 and 8%. You will have all the attendant shrinkage, cupping and twisting that comes with that additional drying. Plan ahead before you invest the time and work. I have had good success lumber that was racked and dried down before fabrication and I have had some misrable failures with lumber fresh from the lumber yard.
You are absolutely correct! This lumber had sat for months prior to building the door. And the cool thing is, it was able to acclimate where it would live. Some times people try and wait to get their lumber as dry as possible before using it, but if it’s permanent home is somewhere with a greater humidity it can cause just as big of problems. Thanks for your comment I feel like other viewers can learn a lot from it! 👍🏻
So what do we ask for and where do we buy it?
Buy regualar lumber then store stacked in a garage for a couple months with a box fan blowing on it and put little wooden shims between each piece so air can flow through the stack. A moisture meter for wood is very cheap. Use a meter to see what the moisture content of the other wood near your door way and compare to the lumber.@@MrMasterMarksman
Nice work on a good looking solid door that u pick up like it’s a hollow centered door.
Thank you Don!
Great job! Enjoyed watching the build!
Thank you for the feedback, and taking the time to watch! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 👊🏻
Nice job!! I like the narrow strips in the center of the door. It’s a nice detail!
Subbing
Thanks man! I’ll let you in on a little secret, those narrow strips in the center were to fix a mistake. I cut the inner panels a little to narrow so the center strip made up the difference.
Great job. Great skill.
Thank you!👍🏻
Really talented craftsman! I never got good enough with my router to free-hand hinge mortises. That could be a huge timesaver. Really, really nice work!
I really appreciate the kind feed back Matthew. I wouldn’t say I’m good by any means, I’m just good at hiding my mistakes! I still try to avoid any free hand work that requires precision. 😂
I gave it a try, not that easy. I suggest buying a hinge «jig» like the Ryobi-one for just 35$.
Great craftsmanship. Way to go.
Thank you. 👊🏻
Great build and video.
Thank you!
You my friend are a craftsman,just the facts.
I truly appreciate this, and thank you for the kind words! Really though I’m just bearded guy who spends way to much time in his shop! 😂 thanks for watching! 👍🏻
great work , keep it up brother ...
Thanks a lot dude! 👍🏻
Solid !! I just tinker from time to time w/ small projects but would def like to watch a more detailed vid about what you were doing in the first part of this vid where you were fixing a twist in that beam
Thank you! I really want to re-make this door and do a better job explaining my steps, This was one of my first couple videos and was still learning the whole video side of things out. My current videos are more detailed in what I’m doing. Maybe I’ll throw a video together explaining how I corrected that twist. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍🏻
Very nice work!
Thank you.
Bravo!! Great job.
Thank you mike. 🤘🏻
GREAT JOB !!!!
Thank you!!
Well done. Darlington, South Carolina
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
Great job and well put video!! New subscriber👍🏽
Thank you! And thank you for subbing! 😀
That’s a lot of work!
It seems like all the good stuff requires a lot of work. 😜
Build a door on a budget... Then uses a full shop with lots of tools. Although I really love the door made, and awesome craftmanship.
Thanks for watching, and the positive feedback!👍🏻 if you think about it… I really used very basic tools, that I feel any hobbyist woodworker would have in their home workshops/garages. Nothing to fancy. 👍🏻
@@brewbuilds Yeah you are probably right. I don't have a planer, but I have most of the other stuff. It's just smaller and portable, since I'm not a hobbyist woodworker, but more of a handyman. I've been working on a school bus to RV conversion and recently raised the roof. But in doing so, I destroyed the original doorway and was looking at alternatives to replace it, instead of the typical bus doors. This is doable with what I have, but would be much easier with the tools you have.
@@chrisgentry4427 yeah the planer was probably the only real specialty tool, but anymore it seems like those are pretty common.
Hey here you are converting a bus to an RV, and telling me you don’t have all the stuff to make a door!😂😂 sounds like a fun project! Something I probably don’t have all the tools for!🤣😉.
I learned a lot from watching the video. I am getting ready to build 7 doors similar to these.. Mine will be a bit more simple. I plan to use plywood where you put the slats (3 panels). They will match the existing doors. Not as pretty but they'll still look good I hope.
I’m glad I could help! There’s nothing wrong with keeping it simple. Keep me posted on how they turn out. 👊🏻
Nice work. The selection of construction grade lumber isn't as great right now. Last year i was looking through the 2x6 racks at lowes and actually found 4 really nice boards that were quarter sawn. I used them for a workbench top. They still haven't cupped
Thanks a lot! Yeah no kidding, And it doesn’t help with the prices being so high.
Nice job!
Thank you!
We are in Canada, the only construction grade lumber that we get here at Home Depot is SPF or PT. The only 2" X 8" lumber locally without going to a specialty wood yard, is Western Cedar and at $4.00 per lineal foot, that's about $150.00 in material, plus hardware, plus sundries, plus about $600.00 in self labor. Although I love wood working, I think that I would custom order the door, spend my time and money building new cabinets for the kitchen, at the cottage.
Yeah I see where you are coming from. For me this was more of a project that I wanted to build for fun, and I needed a door. At the time of the build this lumber was extremely cheap. I will say if I justified my time in my home shop at the same right I get paid an hour for my actual career (not woodworking) I couldn’t justify anything I build at home. 😂 cedar is extremely expensive where I live up in the northwest also. Where at in Canada do you live? And thanks for commenting.👍🏻
@@brewbuilds: east end of Toronto
You should be very proud. Inexpensive?
Maybe the materials but your knowledge is invaluable.
With the exception of the planer I have all the other tools but I do not possess the knowledge of their complete use.
However I'll give it a try.
I need to build 11 doors.
Thank you very,very much and wish me luck
Thank you so much George! In this application the planer isn’t totally necessary because I was limited with how much material I could remove while keeping a decent amount of thickness for the finished product.
I can insure you after making 11 doors you will gain a ton of knowledge on their use, and could probably give me a few pointers.
I dont think you need any (good lucks) given, you totally got this, have fun with it, and please let me know how they turned out. 👊🏻
P.S thanks for taking the time to comment, and leaving positive feedback.
Great job.
Thank you!
Nicely done
Thanks man! 👍🏻
Nice job 👍🏻
Thank you!
Awesome work. The door looks awesome. Hopefully I can bring my skills up to get something close to that quality. True inspiration. Might be awhile with the lack of specialty tools though haha.
Thank you! Oh I’m sure you’ll knock it out of the park. I don’t think the skill set I used to complete this door was all that complex. Thanks for watching and commenting, and let me know how yours turns out.
@@brewbuilds Thank you for the vote of confidence. It may take awhile to get to. Back to the retaining wall project in the yard that I've been putting together on the channel for some time now. My ADD butt keeps getting side tracked haha. Feel free to check out my stuff and join the zone. Trying to get a following as well.
@@ZeonsZone I’ll check it out man, and I know how them yard projects go! I’ve got a ton to do this coming spring once the winter weather calms down. And retaining walls are a big project!
Nice work.. Not Easy for average joe.. I need all those tool, and shop to make it easy...
I love this Video
I’m glad you enjoyed, thank you for watching, and taking the time to comment! 👊🏻
nice, thanks
I am going to make one but its going to be a Dutch door, thanks for sharing.
Yeah bet, and thanks for watching, and commenting! 👍🏻
This looks much better than spending a bunch of money on a pre made door. And it’s solid wood
Thank you! It was fun to build!
Nice job! I have a 110 year old house that has absolutely nothing original left inside thanks to it being a rental for a number of years, so I am going to build the doors for it. I really like how you built the door and since we live in the PNW also, I’m gonna follow your lead! Stay awesome!
Thanks a lot mark! Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions along the way, I’d be more than happy to help if I can!👍🏻
@@brewbuilds thank you, I’m leaning towards using cedar from from a local lumberyard. What are your thoughts on the material?
@@markcarlson2534 if you have access to cedar at a decent price I think it would be a great choice.
@@brewbuilds unfortunately decent price depends on how you define it! Lumber has jumped in price lately.
@@markcarlson2534 haha I hear you on lumber prices! I’m actually in the middle of getting my lumber sourced from a little private mill a few miles from my house. Really good on prices, but it’s green.
Nice, but I would love to see a wood working video done with just hand tools.😊
I enjoy using hand tools, but at times I don’t always have the time to only use hand tools on a larger project like this. 👍🏻
Great job on the build and the tutorial! I’ve tried using construction lumber to build doors but had trouble with boards twisting and bowing when I cut them length-wise. I saw you plane down the twist. How do you deal with bowing?
Thank you Kent. It’s been over a year so can’t quiet remember how much bowing the lumber I used had. When I planed it I shimmed all the gaps between my sled and the piece. So that would have taken care of it then. As far as bowing after it was installed I haven’t had any issues. It also helps that it is installed in the same place it acclimated and was built.
Nice work
Thanks a lot!
Nice door, very solid look to it. You picked out some good looking boards. Hard to find a 2x8 without cupping. What was your final thickness. Thanks for the video.
Thanks a lot man! Yeah I spent some time going through the pile at Home Depot😂
It’s final thickness was 1-1/4”.
Now that it's been in for over a year has it warped any? Turned out beautiful, thank you for sharing your time and talent!
Thank you! No it hasn’t warped. The only issue I’ve really noticed is a slight gap between 2 of the lower inner panels.
This was my concern. All that hard work on lumber that wasn’t dry. I don’t mind whipping up some quick pocket joinery projects with dimension lumber, but this kind of time, for me, would only be spent using kiln dried lumber from my local lumber yard...
Nice work on this though.
American craftsmanship
I hope that’s a compliment! 😂 joking! Thanks for watching and the comment! 👍🏻
Very nice
Thank you.👍🏻
I love it you did a GREAT JOB i wish you were my NEIGHBOR
Thanks Willie! 👍🏻
well done
Thanks man!👊🏻
My greeting from iraq well done
You can tell it's done right just from the sound of the door closing at the beginning of the video. The slightly narrower overall depth looks a little odd on the latch face plate, but otherwise that's a quality looking door.
Thanks man! Yeah it was kind of an experiment, I was curious to see how it would hold up, and yeah it’s a little thinner than I would have liked but I was kinda limited on material thickness with it being construction grade lumber.
Nice door, for real. But there wasn't really much tutorial to the video. But it was still somewhat entertaining to watch what you did show. It did turn out to be a nice looking door.
Hey man - I love the door. I especially enjoyed seeing the process of making it somewhat of a raised panel design with the tongue and groove. Ignore the people about the cost of tools - if they wanted to do it, they would study the methods or buy the tools.
Thanks a lot for great feedback, and I’m glad you enjoyed it! Yeah I find the tool cost comments to be pretty silly 😂. Again thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
@@brewbuilds Ever considered making the plans available for this? I did watch and try to extrapolate the theorem but I need adult supervision to ensure I stay on track lol
@@matthewc8160 yes I actually have. When I made the video for this door I didn’t really have any traffic on my channel and didn’t think there would be enough interest. Things have changed since, so I do plan on making a set of plans like I did for my farmhouse desk I built.
@@brewbuilds well let me know when they are made public, gladly have at them!
@@matthewc8160 same
Nice door
Thank you!
There's a reason they call it framing lumber. Also, basic beginners rule for table saws. Never use Rip fence and miter gauge together. Can you say kickback. The longer dimension of the board goes against the rip fence. That's why they call it a rip fence.
The Framing lumber statement I get, to each their own. That’s all some people have to work with, and I think you can make some nice things out of it. As far as using miter gauge with a fence you are 100% correct! I showed a bad working practice in this video! And I’ve thought about it since. I have made it a point in later videos advising against doing this! Thanks for watching and taking the time to give valid feedback for anyone watching!👍🏻
What router bit did you use for the tongue and groove? It looks like some pieces have an added bevel, was this all done with one bit?
I just used a straight bit for the groove, and did a separate pass with a chamfer bit.
Hi, great video! I have a qq for you. Should you be worried about temp changes that make the wood resize?
Good question. Yeah wood movement is always a good thing to plan for. Fortunately the wood acclimated in my shop for a couple months prior and it works in my favor that where it acclimated is also where it will live. The tongue and grove center panels are all free floating and not glued. The rail and stile joints are the only thing glued. This will allow the inner panels to be able to expand and contract throughout seasonal changes. So far I’ve only had a couple of the panels shrink up a little just making a little gap in a couple spots, but the door it self is still nice and square.
@@brewbuilds thanks for the quick response, I'm gonna buy some wood and let it rest for a couple of weeks and then to try to build one of this.
If you have the kind of a shop he has there's no such thing as building a door on a budget with top quality tools..
I mean the only real specialty tool I used for the project was a planer, but anymore I feel like most hobbyist woodworks have one. 👍🏻
Nice build! What was your final thickness? If you started with 1 1/2” construction lumber, did you plane 1/8” to 3/16” just to flatten the faces? Love the chamfers on the edges of the rails, stiles, and panels. Is it remaining stable for you? Best.
My final thickness was 1-1/4”, a littler thinner than I wanted but it worked out just fin, and yeah I was just skip planning them to get them as flat as possible. I was really pleased with the chamfer too!
This door has remained flat, and opens and closes the same as the day I installed it. The only issue I’ve had was I got a couple smaller gaps between a couple of the internal panels. I made a mistake and intended on gluing all the internal panels together then let them float inside the rails and stiles as a whole, but I got side tracked during my glue up and missed that. I realized it as soon as I was done, but it was too late by then. I think that would have eliminated that issue. Thanks for watching, and taking the time to comment.
Bravo
Thank you!
Looks great, I am not sure about the word “easy” in your description.
Oh come on it wasn’t that bad. 😀
Totally “easy” if you have all those tools and years of experience.
@@Rolexor simpleton : you could literally do this by hand if you were so motivated . He just used tools to make it faster . How do you think things were build before the dawn of electricity or power tools 🤦♂️
“On a budget” using a huge workshop space & high grade expensive tools.
Nice work, but not an accurate description.
@@panchopistola8298 then it should be demonstrated as such. You don’t make a DIY video that people then have to alter the technique to build. Per the description this wouldn’t help everyone try to build on a budget.
Beautiful! But where in the world do you buy 2x8 construction lumber that isn’t completely full of nots these days
I bought all this lumber at my local Home Depot. I did spend a decent amount of time going through the entire pile to find good ones. 😂
Brilliant
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
@@brewbuilds Subbed as soon as I saw the care you put into your work.
Thank you! I really appreciate all your positive feedback! 👍🏻
@@brewbuilds Well, I see good work, helpful work, or great ideas and I am inspired. Keep it up.
Very nice job. Ever worked with sweetgum wood?
Thank you! No I haven’t worked with it.
Awesome build! Five. The wood that you used, has it twisted or bowed at all? I made some doors out of 2x lumber and had issues with bowing after they were installed for a few months.
No issues, and it’s been installed for over a year. It was pretty dry when I made it, and it also helps that it lives in the same place it was built. Hope that makes sense.
Yeah I was thinking the same after watching a video about how exterior doors are made. But, it isn't an exterior door, so that should help.
Very nice. Now 1137 more to go...
Beautiful door. I was hoping you would have explained how to make it since this was a how to video.
Thanks Chris. This was one of my earlier videos starting out, so I was still kinda figuring the TH-cam game out. You’re not the only one who wished there was more voice explanation to it. With all the interest I’ve got in this video I’ve thought about redoing it and giving a more in-depth explanation and make plans available for it. All my recent videos I’ve made sure to explain my process throughout.👍🏻
Brewbuilds anywhere to purchase the plans for this door?
As of now there isn’t, but I’ve had so many people ask the same thing I just might have to design something up.
What is that machine with a pipe?
Lucky you you have the space .
It definitely helps, but it also means I have bigger mess to clean up! 😂
Damn fine door, solid as hell too. Very nice
Thank you!
Can you make this to wing out?
You certainly could. Having it swing in was the better option for me, so that’s what I did.
2x8 lumber will it not shrink as the wood dries leaving gaps?
The lumber had been sitting in my shop for a couple months, so it was fairly dry to begin with. It does move a little throughout the seasons leaving a couple little gaps.
My on concern is even if painted or stained is it warping over time
I put a few coats of poly on it. After 2 years it hasn’t warped.
What moisture content did you start with? Did it shrink?
It was around 10 or 11%. I only had a little shrinkage between two of the lower inner panels nothing I’m worried about.
You should have made it out of OSB like everything else in your shop. Just kidding, great job.
😂😂😂
Put scrap wood in ur left hand and use it to push the board of wood beinf cut too the wall for the saw
Wont that type of wood warp after time???
I allowed it to dry for a few months before using it, and since the door is in my shop where it acclimated it shouldn’t be an issue. I’ve had it for over a year and it’s still nice and square. I did get a little shrinkage between two of the inner panels, but it’s not a huge deal.
Nice job especially with the cost of wood doors...what would you have done differently if it was to be a exterior door...if anything...stay safe...
Thanks a lot chuck! If I were to do it differently I’d glue all the inner panels together, but still allow them to float as a whole inside the rails and stiles. (that was my intent with this one, but got in a hurry during my glue up), and I would use some sort of outdoor finish instead of water based poly. Really though I’d probably consider using a different type of wood for an exterior door.
Really nice job !
But I don't think this should be called on a budget, it requires quite some tools. But, the result is really great !
Thanks for the feedback. I’ve heard this a few times, I truly think I used fairly common tools that most hobbyists woodworkers would have.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. 👊🏻
What finish? Looks like total boat? Looks Great!!
Thanks a lot! No it’s just a water based polyurethane.
Very nice. I need such a door in my basement, how many 2x8 boards did yours use?
I believe I used 3 2x8”x8’ for the rails and stiles, and the inner panels were 2x6”x8’ and I probably used 3 or 4 for those. It’s been over a year so my memory is a little foggy. 😂
@@brewbuilds Thanks! (Time to build a door...)
Get after it! Haha let me know how it turns out! 👍🏻
This is great and nice idea beautiful and simple. Sending my love and support here see you and keep safe.
Sydney Workzone TV thank you for the positive feedback!
I really wanted to show that anyone can do it.
@@brewbuilds Yes you are right bro.
How do you find a typical 2x8 without huge knots?
Spend a lot of time going through the pile.😂
@@brewbuilds at our local store I would look through everything and have to break a new bundle open as well. I haven't found anywhere local that can get #1. I did make a screened door out of pressure treated 5/4 deck boards because the regular store bought doors don't last, plus I was able to incorporate rails to hold the cat door secure. I will have to checkout your channel for ideas as we are renovating a fire damaged house in the SE
You shouldn't knock him. Can you do what he can do? Just saying a little credit goes a long way, and I remember when I first started my TH-cam channel, and all I had was battery-operated tools. way to go brother keep up the excellent work new subscriber here
Thanks dude! I’ve been in this game for awhile, and I’ve found there’s always someone with something bad to say 😂🤘🏻👊🏻
easy if you have all those tools of course
I feel like most of the tools I used are fairly common in hobbyist garages or at least some sort of variation.
What's that board at the bottom of the door opening for? Just to trip over?
I pick my feet up when I walk. 🤷🏻♂️
@@brewbuilds Well that is a smart ass reply, but inside doors don't have transoms.
Didn’t mean any harm, just a little sarcasm! 😜I understand what your saying. When I built this door my shop wasn’t heated so I installed a wall heater in the bathroom to keep my pipes from freezing in the winter months, so my thought was this would help seal it up a little more and keep the heat in better. It’s a very low traffic area and I’m typically the only one using it.
@@brewbuilds Well since it doesn't do any harm, sarcasm doesn't get many subscribers.
I just want to know, where can I get one of those lefthanded extension cords?
They’re right next to the 13” crescent wrenches! 😂
Will this block sound?? As it is solid wood...
Also tell me the width of the door and panels in mm
Awesome work..
Thank u for this video
Thanks for the Positive feedback. The door is 755.65mm wide, and the panels are roughly 127mm plus 6.35mm wide tenons so overall 133.35mm wide. Hope that helps. And sorry for the delayed response I’ve been out of the shop for a few days.
@@brewbuilds one more thing to ask.
I am making a window sash , 2ft x 5 ft , have to put 10mm glass in it.. do I need a thicker and strong sash ? And thickness of sash..
@@nikhilpant6428 I don’t think I can confidently answer that. I don’t have enough experience with window sash’s to give you a solid answer, and I’d hate to steer you in the wrong direction.
