Another great posting! And a true definition of ‘hand crafted’! You have become so consistent with postings that I find myself getting excited knowing I will get another visit! I know the filming is a pain and editing a drag, but on this end we get a visit and a treat of watching you put you dream together. Many congrats on finally being officially dried in. Well done!
Thank you for sharing your story. You are a real guy that can take advice, thank you for admitting that not many do. Real hard work that will last many lifetimes. 🖐🤗👍
By the way that door I built is a bit more than four feet wide so that too added to the stress. It is no lightweight. Only reason I don't still do them is there is no good way to easily insulate them. Now I build 3 1/2" hollow core with foam inside. They are pretty skookum too.
Like seeing you be so resourceful. Buying and using second hand materials and now building the doors from scratch. Good work! Videos have improved so much as well. Filming and editing is tougher than it looks. You are getting more comfortable on camera and it definitely shows. Keep up the great work.
I remember my father used to do the way you do with wood carpentry and wood carving..but for cabinets and doors the same style with out machine just hand tools and i wod help smoothing the surface of the wood with sand paper...i love those days when im with my father..
Great job on making your own doors! I have a lot of respect for your ability! I have only hung prehung doors. As always I am looking forward to the next video!
Congratulations on getting closed in, a great achievement! You have a hell of a weather dominated location which we see also with Red Poppy Ranch. Looking forward to the projects coming in spring/summer.
The door and frame look great. Just a couple of things to think about. If the pins in the hinges are removeable then the door is easy to take off. Most thresholds are made of a hardwood or metal. Have to see how that holds up. Over all a good job.
Twenty five years ago I made a door for my storage shed (unheated) out of 2x6's edge glued together with gorilla glue and a cross piece of 2x6 top and bottom with one diagonal of 2x6 also. However I laid out the door and cross drilled for three all thread 3/8" rod which was bedded in epoxy where I had drilled recesses for the two nuts locking each end. I was worried about expansion and contraction in our wet weather and cold winters but it has held together with no problems. I also fabricated 1/4" flat bar straps 12" long hinges with grease zerts and through bolted them and all the cross bracing with a myriad of 1/4" galvanized carriage bolts. The boards were straight #2 construction lumber which I jointed and used as they came (certainly not completely dry!!). Good heavy hinges through bolted carry the load and help prevent undue stresses on the door. The gorilla glue has been a real winner. Good luck with yours. I have since made several super insulated doors with plywood skins and framed with 2x4 lumber on edge. One of which I fiberglassed the assembly upon completion with several layers of cloth and resin. Again fabricated my own heavy duty hinges with ball bearings and grease zerts. Very efficient and super strong.
I'm glad to hear gorilla glue held up. That's what used knowing it's good. But hoping it will hold. I had thought about putting all thread through the doors. If they move at all I will still do that.
Mud season in the northern half of the US is something most of us Southerners don't understand but the easy way to cover it is with how deep the frost line is up there you get surface moisture that is blocked by the ice under it and the more you move on it the worse the mud gets as the ground slowly thaws out making the mud layer thicker every day. The 3+ feet of ice in the ground that took all winter to freeze will takes weeks to thaw out blocking any drainage of surface moisture till it is thawed. Southern mud is a different thing as it comes from water sitting for long enough to soak the clay enough to make some very messy places.
It would be good if you made a push stick for cutting on the table saw. Just get a piece of scrap and make a shape like a small boot with the top part bending back a bit. Or you can hook you pinky and the next finger over the fence when you push wood through the saw. Just a couple of safety hints. Not fun getting mangled by a saw! Great job you are doing. Thanks for sharing your videos.
Since your doors are already done cross drilling would be tough but you might use the classic look of strap iron surface mounted? With the gorilla glue I don't think there will be a problem. It doesn't get much tougher with the exception of direct sunlight (4' eaves a foot above the door) than my install. I used none of the techniques for expansion and contraction although I did worry a bit about it. I will say I painted it a couple of good oil based coats but only when I built it and not since. I also used the same technique for a 2x4 laminated on edge woodworking bench which was fifteen years in my unheated shop before I started heating it 25 years ago. It was glued with yellow wood glue (before there was gorilla). It does have two very minor checks but the top is dead flat. It too had the rod crossways. 8' x 2' bench with four 1/2" rods. You should be fine.
Our out opening exterior door is fitted with hinge bolts. They go into the door frame every time the door is shut just by the action of shutting the door, nothing to remember but much more secure.
Great job :) just one question...shouldnt the pins on the henges of the door go to the inside? Otherwise someone could just slip them out with s hammer and screwdriver...dead bolt and lock wont stop a thing if they can get those henges off...not trying to be critical but you've work so hard on all this...just trying to be helpful...
Love your channel, but today I believe you goofed. Question, why would you put the hinges on the outside of an exterior door ? Anyone wanting to get in for some nefarious reason would only have to pop out the hinge pins. Thus defeating the purpose of the deadbolt. Just wondering. 😊
My wife and I have been watching your progress over the past few months. We even binge watched one weekend to see everything from the beginning. I normally don't comment on things, just tell myself not to do what I see at home. We enjoy watching very much. Some things you do make me cringe. I have worked with power tools and equipment for 4 decades and you scare me. I have seen others get injured being much safer then you. I know it is difficult sometimes when you have limited access to different tools to do certain jobs, but there is always a way to be safe. All I want to say is PLEASE PLEASE be safer. I would hate to hear of you or one of your family being injured. The way you used your table saw in this video was so dangerous, i had a hard time watching. We will keep watching, but just wanted to ask. Take care.
Never wears eye protection or hearing protection. They are "tools" just as much as every other tool you use. His kids as well don't use them . Why not??
Why don’t you insulate the door? Do you have a mild climate? And why do you use doornobs? It only takes a wet hand to stop you from entering the house... and just not talk about ice or snow on your gloves... You sure know how to makes it difficult for your self. When I moved in to my house there was a doornob in the bathroomdoor, I don’t know how many times I had to get ”rescued” from the bathroom before I changed it to a handle. You see I have to treat my hands with lotion everytime I wash..
We have doorknobs now and never had that problem. Our climate is far from moderate. We see lots of zero to sub zero temperatures. But for a shop door I never thought of making it insulated, just real stout.
Congratulations on this big step of getting it totally enclosed.

It must feel so good to look at that building and see all the planning and hard work come together. Congratulations folks!!!

🖐🤗👍
those will be some beefy doors. nice jobs. I think you're going to appreciate you pegged them for years
I know what a good feeling it is to be totally enclosed....a sigh of relief.
Finally a video where someone knows how to use a table saw. Well done on the build...

It’s starting to come together so nicely!! Amazing job!!
Looks great! So time consuming for you all, but satisfying!

Wait! Don't lock us out! 😇 mighty fine work on this doors.
Congratulations being fully enclosed!!
That sky was awesome :)
Closed in. Good work!

In all build channels your channels is the best😃😃😃. You know a lot 😉 old style but keep it coming at least once a week
Great job on making your own doors! I have a lot of respect for your ability! I have only hung prehung doors. As always I am looking forward to the next video!

What a great feeling!! Looks great!!

Really starting to take shape now, built in winter also, well done. .
Day by day it's coming together. Dreams do come true.
That's a Door! No beasties thru there.
Good to see new video from you guys...Take care and keep safe!🙏🙏🙏
Spring is here it will soon warm up! The door turned out Great!! Y'all Take Care & Stay Safe.

Great to see the dowels in, it will make a huge difference! All the best
Great solid doors they look so good wow congratulations guys you did it enclosed and safe xxx
Man glitter looks great on you, Terrell!
Your Whole Family is a WOW!!! I do look forward to your exciting vids!!! Great ACCOMPLISHMENTS!!!
I like the door frame. Update on how your threshold is doing down the road would be awesome. Thinking of doing something similar.
The door and frame look great. Just a couple of things to think about. If the pins in the hinges are removeable then the door is easy to take off. Most thresholds are made of a hardwood or metal. Have to see how that holds up. Over all a good job.
The threshold is a rock maple hardwood from one of my trees I cut down it's super hard. If it doesnt hold up I'll remake one in oak.
Congratulations!! I have enjoyed watching your progress for a long time.
It is a good idea, that way your doors are stronger. And kind of look like doors built long ago.
I'm so very happy for you guys, it's great to see all the progress.
That's brilliant! So good to see you finally able to stay warm inside!
Just a excellent job! Congratulations on the lovely doors!!

Yeah we come from southern AZ. This northern mud is crazy
@@bustedwagonranch4546 It could be worse parts of Canada and Alaska have winter into mud then into bugs followed by fall.
That elephant steak is getting smaller by the bite. Good job.

Yeah I have had to help people pick up the cut off parts before
Those saws dont slow down for hands
Great video and Congrats on 20k Subs!
Gettin ‘er dun! I like it!
Place is looking awesome thanks for sharing
I see ICF forms. I built a two story garage with them. Fun to work with especially by one’s self if you have no help.
I think it looks fantastic! You guys do great work. Shop is great cannot wait to see the house!
Great Job!!!
lookin good
Congrats on a big milestone !
Must have loaned his safety glasses to Heath.
No worries...Doors don't bite.

I don't think TNT can blow those doors lol. Beautiful and secure at the same time.

Nice job guys it looks awesome.
Now that’s a door!
good to have doors
heat stays in
Nice work
...looks great, good job..
Thumbs up😀
congratulations!!
PPE police 🚨 😂 Seriously though, you should get a push stick for that table saw 🤷♀️
He used one.
I try and use my square when thing get alittle close. I've cut off a finger before. I dont plan on doing that again.
Nice work...What about snow drifts against the out swinging door in the winter?
We put alot of thought in to the way that door swings. I know I'll regret it swinging out sometimes.
You do good work
Should have put your hinges opening in because the way you did them, all anyone has to do to break in is pop your hinge pins!
Beautiful work, Sir!! You are a true craftsman! Are those hinge pins "tamper proof?"
My top one is not but the other two are.
What you're calling casing is actually the door jamb. Casing is the trim used to hide the transition of the interior wall and the jamb.
Yeah your right. Dang it. Now I feel like an idiot.
@@bustedwagonranch4546 Join the club mate, there's lots of us.

Great job :) just one question...shouldnt the pins on the henges of the door go to the inside?

If the door opens out they need to be outside. You can get tamper proof that one can not remove the pins. Not sure what was used here
going to be hard to open door when blocked with snow
@@rockcrusher7000 Then you climb out a window! LOL
The bottom two are tamper proof.
@@bustedwagonranch4546 thought that would be the case. All the best from new zealand
Ok now let’s all watch game night let’s rumble lol
👍👍💞

Use NRP hinges. Problem solved
Locks only keep honest people out......A thief will make his way in regardless of locks or where the hinges are located
They are tamper proof. The bottom two anyway. I figure they will go through my window before pulling the door off.
I'm not sure I'd have a wooden threshold on an exterior door

All that wood about you and have you ever thought about a push stick, they can be replaced but not your fingers.
