Recommended Posts

Ok..this first photo will be a bit FUZZY....taking photos without a tripod just don't work all that well:PullingHair:

I tried a dry fit of the outside door frame parts...seemed to fit up well enough....until I started checking the interior parts...stiles and rail..did not fit...so

The center Stiles were too narrow..cut 2 new ones the correct width...and length...needed and extra 1/2" to account for two 1/4" tenons...the center rail?  was TOO wide..ripped a new one to correct width and again the correct length...remember this photo?

well, I needed to add a1/4" more for a tenon.  On each end...

 

Ok. THAT was out of the way, for a bit...Raised Panels...need a rebate milled all the way around...

Set up the tablesaw..

And make a 3/8" deep cut on all 4 sides..times 16 panels..then reset the saw and..
