You have become the only "youtube" channel I watch. For me, it's seeing the high quality finishes, knowing that things are getting done thoroughly and I can't look to your videos for guidance. Keep up the great work pal 👍🏼
Wow, I never imagined there was so much work involved in making a door! This was an eye-opener. But it'll probably still be a good solid functioning door in 300+ years' time. I'm impressed.
This is not how they were fabricated back in the day. They were either sandwiched for strength or just backed with battens for expedience and cost cutting. Many barn doors, for example, were braced doors and you better believe no tongue-and-grooves were cut and they didn't mortise the frame.
@@DiffEQ this isnt a barn door! Its a traditional ledge and brace and this is how they were made back in the day. (If it was never done how did it ever evolve?) In fact mortise and tenons were used even on cheap pine lounge doors. Its today we have the "expedience and cost" with the cardboard filler, chipboard, mastic and nail gun gangs!
It only looks like a lot of work because he does not have the proper equipment. A proper joinery shop could be ten times quicker for the same door.. still - he is talented
@@stiggywatts4258 There’s good reason for the cringing. I won’t count all the ways, but the glue - particularly the one he uses - prevents expansion and contraction. This may cause some splitting over time, as it’s an exterior door. Not sure there’s anything warranting a thumbs down here, however. It’s a beautiful door.
Exactly. Some youtube videos been ruined with a so called "music". We came for the content, not for the music. Purest content possible. If someone wanted to listen some music along it, they have the option to do so.
No longer working, I am a retired cabinetmaker. I worked with only wood in the beginning, residential furniture. After, mostly commercial furnishings with very little wood used. It was a job and hard work, loud and dusty, I do not miss it now. I have made frame and panel doors. This was good to see..
Man, I just love this door. I've watched this video probably 20 times and learned something new every single time. I want to make one for my house that's similar but more barn style, so I've been researching it over and over. It just amazes me every time I watch
Bench hand Joiner here of 30 years i absolutely love traditional joinery making bespoke items. You made a good here, i would have done things slightly different but we all work differently to achieve the same goal nice job.
I lived and worked in France for over 13 years and I worked in a fourth-generation artisan woodworking shop. we did a lot of restoration and new construction on Chateaux and government buildings and we made a lot of Doors and jambs, a lot of them and this video brings back a ton of memories of those days. I might share with you one thing we found out about the glue you used in this video. yes, it expands and that seems to be a good thing to get everywhere but tests have found that due to the expansion process it foams up, and by foaming it creates air pockets and the bond is not as good as good old wood glue. we stopped using Gorilla Glue and went back to brushing wood glue all over both areas and no more problem of separation or even failures at the joints. I liked the bar you made earlier.
This is old world craftsmanship with modern tools. Beautiful job. It's not often these days when you see a person who takes real pride in every project. Cheers.
Beyond amazing. You're craftsmanship is rare, here in the USA it's extremely rare. The people who call themselves craftsman are usually carpenter's at best. Thank you for sharing your video. We thoroughly enjoy watching the building process. God bless 🙏
I can only imagine what that door must cost! Looks like you spent a week on it. I nearly cried at the end when that piece of fine craftsmanship got mounted in that $hitty cinder block wall.
@@trentinh Required talking to explain a step the average beginner craftsman might not know, but none of that drivel that flows like Niagra Falls from the mouths of tubers like Wranglerstar or Jessie (from Pure Living for Life). Seems like their channels have become 90%+ yacking, and not much whacking.
no comment can express my admiration as much as your craftsman ship and quality speaks for itself. that goes for the video presentation too, just the required facts, no waffle or fuss.
How does shimming 2mm for expansion work if the battens are glued and screwed to the frame and braces? In a traditional cabinet, the panel floats in the style/rail frame to allow for expansion, for example. On a tongue-and-groom floor, only one side of each floor plank is nailed. etc.
It's great to know that there are some real carpenters still out there, that can make a proper piece of kit like this door. A couple of coats of varnish every few years and that door will still be around, long after me and thee are long since dead and bearded. Beautiful piece of workmanship.
Peter Antonic Ditto, another Sandgroper Joiner. He did a pretty fair effort. 👍👍👍🇦🇺 I’m not a fan of through tenons with wedges myself, albeit I’ve made doors that way myself, however from experience over time the moisture gets in to the end grain on the tenons & the wedge and starts to rot process. Personally I prefer a blind stopped Mortice & tenon to keep that moisture egress out. Also I prefer a 2 part export resin, because it will last longer than the door timber. Then I also blind peg the tenons from the inside face of the door & plug the pegs so they are hard to see. Just small things that I would do slightly different. Our WA Jarrah (Euc. marginata) (or Swan River Mahogany as it was once known) is half as hard again as this oak he is using, (8.5 on the Janka hardness scale) and because the soils the trees grow in is slightly acidic here in WA - the sap inside the joinery timber is also slightly acidic and over time breaks down any glue other than epoxy resin which is inert to acid attack & gives a stronger bond than the surrounding parent timber. You adapt your techniques to the material your machining for joinery, what you see in this video works for this Oak species & thus is fine for this particular door. I do have to say the filming of his methods, assembly etc as well as the editing together of the final video was nothing short of masterful. Whist I might match him for joinery technique, no way that my self filming one handed with smart phone and zero editing efforts match his filming and production technique. All up a very solid effort in all aspects. Easily a $1200 🇦🇺 door in these parts not that you’d be able to source the euro oak easily here. Bunnings sell a US Ash door similar here at $1200.00🇦🇺 which is what I base my estimate / guesstimate on. Wish I was his age again & could throw timber that size around over machines again all day like I used too. I can still do it, but that would take me a week or more to do & trips to the Chiro for a couple days afterwards to try & iron out all the cramps in parts of me that get their ambitions confused with their capabilities. 😂😂
Always enjoy the table saw sled where the video has little reference to the blade being fixed; looks like the blade moves as the sled moves over the blade! Thanks for a great video and an elegant project.
Excellent video recording. No music, no high speed playback, machine sounds preserved. I like the work as well although I do many things (like mortise and tenon) with hand tools.
Thanks Garry. it looks like a garage as it isnt complete. it will be a little office/guest room with a small wet room and kitchenette and a wood burner so should be quite nice when complete.
I hadn’t realised quite how much work there was in a traditional style door. My house here in New Zealand was built entirely in that fashion from native New Zealand timbers about 110 years ago and the highly skilled man-hours to do so must have been staggering.
Outstanding work and love your shop. I am a 60 year old carpenter that's been trying to get out'a carpentry for over 30 years but never could. I now have a small wood shop, but build interior stain-grade stairs (traditional & curved, on-site). As I watched you work to build your door I thought about your shop & tool & material expenses and I kind'a thought to myself what it might cost to estimate; build; and, install that door .... and then I saw that wonderful door surrounded by concrete blocks w/no over-head water protection? I have been known to build and install several exterior doors in my day and therefore know the work, skill & knowledge they require. Great job & excellent video! P.S.: I also have a band saw that operates like yours.
If you cut the wedges from the waste cut from the tenons they will be the perfect width. Great work by the way! I used to be a Joiner but changed trades. Very satisfying work.
Titebound poly glue same quality as gorilla, and sells 12 oz for $10 at Ace. In Oregon, Gorilla sells for 8 oz for $10. Excellent quality video and editing and workmanship. Really appreciated the effort.
Thanks for taking the time to make this I have been retired for three years after forty as a joiner seems you can miss your work , also not to be preaching to the choir but unless gorilla glue has been improved maybe 15 years ago Fine woodworking ( I think it was them) did a failure test on different glues in full mortise and tenon joints by racking them until they gave and titebond really out preformed GG.I was surprised because I had switched to poly when it first came out. But they found it held tighter than a bulls sphincter in fly season . Along with flowing as smooth as bombyx mori :).
Todd of Project Farm also did independent testing of various glues on his channel. Both Titebond and Elmers did better than Gorilla Glue, if I recall correctly.
Superb demonstration of craftsmanship. I enjoyed *watching* with the occasional subtitle rather than (as is so often with US garage shop people) listening to every detail with the make and model of every tool being used at every stage which is highly irritating. Watching the skill of the man is all that is needed. Thank you.
Really excellent work! I’m probably not the first to say this but I did feel a certain high level pucker factor when you ran your thumbs passed that table saw blade! I was much relieved to see a push stick in use later on! Stay safe and all the best!

Great work! I'm a newbie and enjoyed watching you work. I got a more then a few great tips and techniques. I'm in the middle of building a barn door and wish I would have seen this a few days sooner. Definitely a few things I would have incorporated. The tongue in groove for the battens for one. Thank you for posting.
Only just stared watching your channel have to say very interesting to watch . Was a bit off put by not talking but got to say after a few videos, your workmanship speakes for its self . Brill work 👏.
@Leon Widdicombe In the UK most modern houses were built from concrete block. The blocks are 16" long , 8" tall and 4" thick. External walls are built in two layers with a 2" cavity in-between. The cavity used to be left open but insulation is now installed. Metal ties are placed in the mortar beds to secure the two layers. The walls are then rendered with sand/cement to a smooth surface. Bricks can be used for the outside layer and not rendered.

I don’t understand how anyone can give this guy a thumbs down. What’s wrong with you? He’s amazing
It could be the old bench joiners who I'm sure cringed when they saw him glue tongue and groove boarding to a frame ledged and braced door, big no no.
Probably the Ikea snobs

Same. Like putting the Mona Lisa on a factory wall.
There is something primal and deeply satisfying watch a craftsman make something wonderful and functional out of oak. Must be in our DNA
Aside from the excellent joinery, I found the following good things:
- No Talking
- No Music

In the olden days we use to make oblique mortise and tenons to fit the braces, no screws just glue, proper job.
How did you attach the battens?
Sounds great, now you do a video where you show your skills doing that
the washer on the plug cutter is a trick I am going to steal, thanks.

shaddec55 My thoughts exactly! Naturally, therefore, he will be finishing this building in grand style to match this door.
Cinder-block ? It’s oak
@Leon Widdicombe In the UK most modern houses were built from concrete block. The blocks are 16" long , 8" tall and 4" thick. External walls are built in two layers with a 2" cavity in-between. The cavity used to be left open but insulation is now installed. Metal ties are placed in the mortar beds to secure the two layers. The walls are then rendered with sand/cement to a smooth surface. Bricks can be used for the outside layer and not rendered.
It would be built using the blood and bones of the proletariat.
