    Completed Closet Door

    Since this was a first ever door attempt, I'd been posting my progress on about this on the Project Discussion forum. Here's the completed version. It'll replace a cheap builder's grade door in our MBR. It's red oak and butternut. The RO was chosen primarily b/c it was one of the few woods I had on hand that offered straight 7 footers that were 1-3/8" thick. The joints were done with a door making set of router bits.










    A little hidden treasure on the door's edge:
    Happiness is sort of like wetting your pants....everyone can see it, but only you can feel the warmth.

      That looks gorgeous, like it should be in the stateroom of a multi million dollar yacht...

                      VERY NICE! The arched top/bottom pieces are really nice touches.
