November 1, 20214 yr Author Popular Post Nice mellow day but got the rails and stile blanks milled. Static_LV came over for coffee this morning. It’s always nice to have fellow woodworkers in the shop. Paul
November 6, 20214 yr Author Popular Post Busy day in the shop. Got all the rails and stiles cut and one door glued up completely. The panels are coming out fine. The boss likes them and now that I see them assembled I can see the Art Deco rectilinear aspect better. Tomorrow is just keep going and try to get as many assembled as I can. Paul

November 8, 20214 yr Author Popular Post I managed to get the rest of the panels routered and one sanded and finished. The sanding is taking a little longer than I expected but the results are good. Paul
November 8, 20214 yr Popular Post Over the top Paul. That is one gorgeous panel with the bookmatch. Literally a piece of wood art.
November 11, 20214 yr Author Popular Post The last two days have been spent gluing up the frames and then sanding and finishing. Two doors are complete and I will finish the other six tomorrow. The panels turned out pretty heavy and I wasn’t comfortable leaving the mitered and glued joints unsupported so I decided to do a dogbone style inlay on the back. Paul
November 11, 20214 yr Popular Post Those finished doors are gorgeous Paul. Great idea on the dog bone reinforcement plus they just add that much more character when the doors are open. Top quality work. I can't wait to see the doors in place.
November 11, 20214 yr Popular Post Well, doggies. Looks like you have about gone out and out done yourself. Those are some fine doors.
November 12, 20214 yr Author Popular Post Thanks for all the wonderful comment ! Finished off the rest of the doors today so as soon as all the hardware arrives I will get them mounted. Now I have to make all the internal shelving and eight drawers to hold the DVD’s.

November 13, 20214 yr Author Popular Post Today was spent gluing up all the blanks for the drawer sides and partitions. Managed to get some of them surfaced. Paul Edited November 13, 20214 yr by Masonsailor
November 13, 20214 yr Popular Post Really enjoying the daily progress updates Paul. You are one busy guy for sure. Keep them coming.
November 13, 20214 yr Author Popular Post I just keep plodding along. I estimated it would take me about a year to complete this room. Keeps me off the streets. Paul
