This is getting EASY - Building Doors like Legos

I’d go with the stop dado on styles then make mortises then fit your tenons a little smaller. Dominos would be quicker but I love the larger tenons once set up for them. 🤔🤷‍♂️ maybe even with face dowels slightly offset to pull joints together. Like the old days. I don’t think they even used glue. Anywhere. Definitely would work for hanging barn doors. I think

BTW I absolutely love the door design 👍👍👍. I need to build a couple barn doors of this design. 1”3/8 or 1”3/4. How do you keep doors from warping ? Spanish cedar and Mahogany or some other plywood panels would be great.

Why not use a mortising drill press drill

Makita slide not mentioned in the description of tools 🤔. Why not

To have a fire rated door, it needs to take over 20 mins for a fire to burn through. Your door easily passes this requirement. In my opinion.

Can u do a video on building a barn door?

You made a comment about the door not being fire rated so I looked up what the case was in my area. I suspect your door may actually be fine.

"Other openings between the garage and residence shall
be equipped with solid wood doors not less than 1 3/8 inches (35 mm) in thickness, solid or honey-
comb-core steel doors not less than 1 3/8 inches (35 mm) thick, or 20-minute fire rated doors."

Lololol sooooo many people with their opinions in the comments! Actually hilarious never seen a comment section like this

Nice door. Couldn’t you just cut a dado all the way down on the verticals and then cut tenons directly out of the horizontals … the panels slide into both vertical and horizontal dado and it’s locked in, very strong and fast.

While I get that the job of a carpentry project is to give one an excuse to to do carpentry; I would love to see anyone making "outdoor" doors actually subject it to a kick-in test, you know, basic security precaution on what is ultimately a security device. You would do a sit test on a chair, a sleep test on a mattress, same reasoning.

I can't put a dado blade in my table saw. I liked that you used the router table instead. What bit did you use?

the finish is technically called Bright Brass. to keep it that color longer hit it with some clear satin acrylic spray.

When you hang the door bevel both edges 2degrees , the leading edge give a nice margin -door edge s 3/16 smaller than openings

Make a video of getting your 5-panel door fire rated. 😅

Love your door . Would like to know what size bit did you use inthe router table to cut the groove that the panels set in

Great work! Can you please tell what are these router bits? Thanks!

I wish I had the skill set to build custom doors for my house

What brand is your router and router table

Do you think you could install glass panels with the floating tenons l? Have you had much movement sense you've installed them?

Who needs a Festool domino when you can do this? Haha 😎

What size is the router bit is it and where did you get it

More like IKEA than LEGO

hardest part was probably routing the mortise and dialing in the fit of the tenons. nice fine woodworking

That's some sweet doors

This guy is awesome and has incredible skills

Putting groves in the tenons help with glue up.

There is no S in lego.

I really like your Style buddy

Why don't you have a corner chisel bud?

Get the domino! It’s life changing.

Would you be interested in doing a video on building an exterior door slab with glass or sharing some content that would help fill in this gap? Really would love to create a craftsman / shaker style 3/4 lite 4 panel glass door but have yet to find content that would set me up for success. All the doors in store have an ugly routed trim, just can’t find what I want.

When it comes to square fits. I like to use 1/2 dowels about 5 inches long

Completed my first ship lap accent wall today. Customer was ecstatic when she saw it. I owe you a beer man, you have taught me so much. Thank you for all the content, it has truly changed my life.

Could you put actual dominoes in a domino hole? 😆

IT’S NOT BLOODY LEGOS !!!!
How many more times until you Americans pronounce things properly…..

Sheep and Sheeps.
The same thing….

Why not use Domino XL?

Nice work. You can try using oxalic acid to remove stains from the wood if you can't sand them out. This works well on old furniture as well.

So I do not have the domino but for what you’re doing I think you completely should get it. I know I’ll get one once I figure out how to get one without my wife seeing the cost lol

Any carpenter with any experience knows what you just did was an absolute nightmare, you might be able to get around a few things with editing but that door is a piece of s

The fire rating of the door is because the room is intended as place to park vehicles. He doesn't really need it if it is being used as a wood shop. But, keep the door for when you sell the house so you can put it back on to meet standards. Love watching your video's.

That is good 👍

Awesome! watch your fingers on the router table I watched a buddy of mine lose part of his finger on a jointer once I can still hear the cutting sound of his finger

What is that white machine behind you?

Wow not only do you make quality videos you're using dayglow as background music?? Damn I love this channel

If you get the domino it REQUIRES a vacuum to remove the dust while working. A buddy of mine did not use a vacuum and almost burnt it out before figuring out what he was doing wrong. BTW the domino has earned back its purchase price many many times over. Can’t speak highly enough about it. Don’t wait.

I really enjoy your videos. I have learned a lot while I am still no professional my remodel of my house looks almost like a professional did it.

Your doors are a beautiful upgrade for business. I think they’ll go a long way toward paying off your shop investment. I think they could also increase your share of the wealthier customer market. Well done!

Easy? Easy enough to build Shaker 1+2 panel interior doors just like your shop door minus the glass. I need approximately 17. Your doors are beautiful.
