Thanks for the reply Josh..I am enclosing a partial area of a patio to accommodate a sitting room for a severely handicapped person abd I don't have the height to get a regular door there so I'm thinking that I nay have to build one. It will be a sliding exterior for wheelchair access..

@tonyalangdon763 2 роки тому

what of the door was made to short, is it possible to add a 12 inch extension? 🙁

@JoshWrightWoodworking 2 роки тому

@@tonyalangdon763 lol, we have all been there. Maybe you could edge glue a 6" piece on both the top and bottom to keep the symmetry... I think that may be the least noticeable fix but maybe you will think of something better.

Look up wobbling the blade its like a dato of sorts. Great job on them doors.

@johnholder4208 Рік тому

Pro-tip: as you were assembling the door, you were wiping the glue spill out off, after clamping everything together, let the bead of glue dry then just snap it off later. This will keep you from having to sand to get all the glue smear off and your whole surface will stay plumb. Just a light sanding will clean up where the glue was.

@bryansimmons3723 Рік тому

I have done this before, and it works great. A couple of things you might want to add to your shop to make your life easier is a couple of folding saw horses and a 1/2 pc of plywood to make an offload table, and a rolling stand to feed. I do a lot of stuff on job sites rather than in a shop, so I have had to make do a lot, but anytime you get stuff over 2-3ft long having a little extra support makes it easier, safer, and gives you a better product. But that said I really enjoy both the way you are doing things, and the way you explain them. As a teacher I enjoy watching others that teach, and explain things in a simple understandable way. It doesn't take a genius to make complicated well complicated, but it does take one to simplify things.

@patlyle2621 2 роки тому

Very nice job Josh. So nice to see such a young man with these skills! Never lose respect for your power tools as you continue to build your skills. Consider always using a push stick no matter what your depth of cut is! My rule of thumb (why I still have two at 73 years old) is to never allow my hand to pass over the blade on my jointer and table saw no matter what the depth of cut is set at. Enjoyed your vid! John

@cliffgrimes895 Рік тому

I use that same rule. My dad worked for a man when I was kid that built gazebos. One day the man was cutting a large rabbit in a 4x4 cedar post on the table saw. He was guiding the board over the blade with his hands, not really thinking much of it, I guess, because the blade was only cutting through half the thickness of the board. However, there a really bad knot in the board and when the dado blade hit it , the board pretty much exploded and his hand went right down on the blade. Lost his pinky, ring finger and a quarter of his palm. The stuff of nightmares.

Dude. Love this. Very efficient use of lumber, and can always use more expensive/clear wood if you need to. I will likely do this for a pocket door diy, and just buy a sheet of ply or MDF for the panels, since they'll be flat, and painted/sealed. But for another project later on I want a raw finish
