Episode 66- Hanging the new door, not an easy task. I wish I was 20 years ago tougher

In this episode, I face some problems in hanging the door that I finished building in the last episode. As heavy as it is, with so little to hold on to, this was really a two person task. Unfortunately, no second person. Check out my techniques, learn skills that it takes to be able to properly do something yourself.
This channel is dedicated to educating and entertaining anyone interested in the art/science of historic restoration, which will include construction techniques and goals, related off-site projects, a little homesteading and off-grid living, history and maybe even a little farming. Since I work alone, and depend on no one, this is the ultimate DIY channel! On this property stands a Dogtrot style log cabin built in 1850, with an addition constructed in the 1970's. Although at one point, this was likely quite a nice and well cared for home, but years of neglect has caused a lot of deterioration.My intent is to have you learn some construction and restoration basics, as you watch. None of my videos are intended to teach the use of safety techniques or use of personal protective equipment. That responsibility is yours and those around you.
Enjoy!

I'm getting too old to build it again, so I hope it lasts. Thanks for kind words!
