  • As I couldn't find a suitable door at a reasonable price to purchase for my new entry into the workshop I decided to build a door from scratch using traditional mortise and tenon joints. Further videos to come to show how to fix the hinges and lock!

    Would’ve better without the music but brilliant overall. The cheap chisel awesome reminds me of the phrase “ the sword is only as good as the hand that wields it” 👍

    I really like your videos, they are very informative. I just wish you would ditch the music, trust your customers here. No music required. Keep up the great work. I have to try building a door now. Looking forward to the next one.

    I've recently discovered your channel, watched your "drilling through steel" and "mortise and tenon door" videos and just wanted to congratulate you on the content of your videos and on their production value. I've been watching woodworking channels like "Wood working for mear mortals" and Jimmy Diresta for several years now and must say your camera work and editing skills easily match theirs. You explain what you're doing and why you're doing it very well, coupled with your natural on screen presence makes for engaging watching. Keep up the great work. I'm looking forward to learning more from you in the future. Cheers. Chris

    I like your vids, well explained and well shot BUT ... that infill music is really loud and irritating

    You are resourceful and don’t stand around crying about your lack of tools. I appreciate that because I usually just go and buy the tool. Good for you sir- inspiring.

    I don't have a house, I'm not going to build a door. I just searched last week for a short simple video explaining how to install a washing machine (and realised how bloody easy it was) and am now enjoying all these videos! Great stuff.

    Stuart! Just found your channel (through the magic of YT's algorithms) about 4 or 5 days ago. I've now watched around 20 or 25 of your videos (and counting...). THIS one is the most labor-intensive I've seen, to date. As you lamented your lack of a table saw, I very much felt your pain. YES-- such a tool would have shaved many hours of toil and fiddling off the work you had to do. Yet, still, you managed to get the thing done-- fitting perfectly-- all whilst working in a cold workshop. Gotta say, my dude, you put to shame any amount of effort into ANYTHING I have ever done.. IN MY LIFE! This was EPIC, fabulous and humbling to watch.

    Proper tidy job. But....just get yourself a friggin tablesaw! Just not a Einhell one...they're proper sh*te. Buying a table saw is like buying your first impact driver: you'll wonder how you ever got by without one.

    You're a very talented improviser. But how much easier if you had a table saw for the rebates and a domino for the loose tenons. Forming rebates with a router is an absolute pain.

    Love how informative your channel is. I would've liked to see how you added your braces in to this door.

    @ProperDIY thanks for the lesson. I'm trying to learn how to make doors. I've been collecting scrap building supplies from Facebook marketplace to make my own workshop and storage...I'm shakey on doors. The first one I did works but looks like crap. Fortunately it's just on my pounding station. I figured I'd use it as practice...lol

    This is just what I needed as I have to make 4 garage doors exactly like this! Excellent video, very easy to follow.

    A very nice piece of workmanship

  • @ahorton6786

    That's a nice looking door, and it looks solid as a rock. Must be immensely satisfying to complete a project like that.

    Stuart, your work is beautiful, all too easy to produce these sort of products if you have every modern machine/gadget at hand but your methods without said machinery is inspirational and you should be very proud. I know a cabinet maker who thinks he’s wonderful but he has machinery and jigs to do every cut and joint, doesn’t impress me but you do. True craftsman 👍👏👏
