    Ok back on the job. Time to begin the upstairs doors. I’m getting a start on it but it’s going to be slow going. February is a busy month.

    I was dutifully informed fun time is over so it’s back to doors. Have six more to go. I glued up all the components months ago so today was sizing and mortising for the frames. Next is the mortising for hinges and locksets.
