RE: "we have a Plan" - bandit571 - 10-03-2024

A Serious Can Opener was required..
[attachment=52655]
It even came with a screwdriver end, for those Old School Types that use a screwdriver to open a can of varnish...I used the Hook for mine...

Door #2....moved it a bit, varnished to inside face first...then carefully rotated it to do the show face...
[attachment=52656]
That center "stripe" is sap wood...aka...SPONGE...will let this coat of Varnish dry...then go over the sap wood later...

Knees were protesting ( again?) with all the bending down...so. IF I can not go to the "Mountain"...
[attachment=52657]
This is the inside face of Door #1...there are 2 wood Dobies underneath it...

As I will have Laundry Detail later today,,,will check on both doors...and flip #1 Door over, and varnish the show face...and let both doors sit overnight...rub down tomorrow, after I get back from 2 Yard/Moving Sales....

Stay tuned..


RE: "we have a Plan" - bandit571 - 10-05-2024

Both doors have been hauled upstairs,,and are awaiting to be installed..
3 Rails for the next 2 doors ( #3 #4) have been milled to rough length, width, and thickness..
[attachment=52671]
Was trying out a "New" toy in the shop...
[attachment=52672]
Came in a box with 4 other power tools...$10......

Stay tuned..


RE: "we have a Plan" - bandit571 - 10-06-2024

one hour shop time, today..

Hauled one plank to the shop...marked it up for 3 Top/Bottom Rails..trying to avoid stuff like this..
[attachment=52707]
Wanted three blanks..3/4" x 5" x 19"....
[attachment=52708]
To match the 4th rail I already had milled...freshly milled parts, get clamped up for a day or three...
[attachment=52709]
To season them a bit..along with the 4 stiles...

tablesaw was the main tool, today..
[attachment=52710]
Clean up, Aisle #2!

Have 2 options for Monday...either mill the rest of the parts needed...or...start running beads on the parts I already have....
The Raised Panels were done a while back..
[attachment=52711]
So, it is just a matter of making frames to hold these in...

As for that powered planer...
[attachment=52712]
It do make a big mess...and this is just what hit the floor...

Stay tuned...


RE: "we have a Plan" - bandit571 - 10-13-2024

Up-dates?   Been a few days, hasn't it...and with 90+ minutes each day...things have moved along quite a bit..
Beads have been milled
[attachment=52748]
4 Stiles,and...
[attachment=52749]
Along with the top and bottom rails to match up with the center stiles and Lock rails..
[attachment=52750]

Ends of the stiles were mitered...
[attachment=52751]
And made sure they matched...

Then turned these into half laps..
[attachment=52752]

Then the top and bottom rails were done to match..
[attachment=52753]

Next. tenons were milled..
[attachment=52754]
And the corners mitered..

Then mill a few grooves, with  the router table...as some of the grooves need to be stopped...
[attachment=52755]
Yep..NEW fences, even...
So, now the bench is filled up..
[attachment=52756]
As all grooves are done...
[attachment=52757]

So..later today..layout and mill a few M&T joints, and maybe see about a half lap the the lock rail crosses over the Center Stile? 
Stay Tuned...


RE: "we have a Plan" - bandit571 - 10-15-2024

Dry fit #1...
[attachment=52785]
Lock rail mortised into the 2 Stiles...2 raised panels fitted to the grooves....

Dry fit #2...
[attachment=52786]
Center Stile Mortised in the Bottom Rail....remaining 2 Raised Panels planed for a better fit in the grooves...

Half Lap:   Laid out on the Center Stile...
[attachment=52787]
Will work on the last Mortise ( top rail) next time I am in the shop...and work on that half lap..

MIGHT just get Door #3 Glued up before next weekend?   We'll see...

Stay tuned...


RE: "we have a Plan" - bandit571 - 10-15-2024

These are not Passage doors. these are Cabinet Doors...

IF they were Passage doors...They would be twice as thick.....thinking 6/4...the tenons would be in through Mortises..fastened with wedges and pins....Long time ago, I used to make and sell Passage Doors...pre-hung ones at that...both solid panels and Louvered versions....

These are for a Bathroom Linen Closet...that happens to use 2 pairs of doors, 4 doors total.

Feeling a bit under the weather, today....unable to stray too far from the Bathroom....trying to get Laundry Detail done...but nothing getting done in the shop...today...will have to wait and see how tomorrow ( Pay Day !!!) turns out....
Hopefully I am not boring everybody....

Ok...start here..
[attachment=52854]
Have a selection of helpers handy...
[attachment=52855]
Bottle of glue, a brush to spread it around..and plenty of clamps...
[attachment=52856]
Including a LARGE Pipe clamp underneath..

Plan is to let Door #3 sit here for a day or 2...until I need the Tablesaw back...while I work on the Joinery for Door #4..
[attachment=52858]
