    This is brilliant Chad mate. I wouldn't understand how this works without the video tutorial to go with. Nice one pal.
    So I wanted to ask about the bigger archways let's say for under a double doorway inside between the Living Room & Dining Room?? How do u build those arches? I'm going off the premise that using plywood to build the archway out?? Is that why u used the board just there?
    U have great experience in this game so I want to ask could u do a full video on how to build the archway under a double door between rooms. I would love to see how that is done. How u get to the final finish, etc.
    ALSO, Is there any chance of u making a video on how to set the jams of a doorway in correctly? Do u have a video for that in the playlists on here??
    The back door to my workshop is damaged badly and I want to put a whole door jam/Frame in but I don't know how to go about it. I want t remove the old one and get the new one in straight away on the same day so I can build and hang the door too..
    I bought special locks for the doors of my shop to stop ppl from breaking in. In my area nothing is safe unless it's glued and screwed down.. haha! I need to put new doors in but I'm not well versed enough to put the door jam/frame in. I would very much appreciate a video on both the Archways over a double door and the Door Jams/Frames..
    I enjoyed this video very much Chad mate. Thanks for these helpful tips. I'm learning so much from ur channel..

    What is the reason to connect the width to the height did I miss something?

      Based on Chad's answer, I think I misunderstood the question

    • @ChadStanton

      It's important because if the height was taller than the width it wouldn't work out right if you didn't use that step.
