Oak Door Project Ep11 | Finishing the Handmade Oak Door Project 
"When this door slams, people are going to know about it!" - Alastair Genghis Watson, Esq.

The rustic front door project with a Prohibition sliding gate and hand-closed rivets is nearing completion, and the final touches are just being added. We'd love to hear your thoughts on the whole project and if you enjoy our content please recommend us to everyone you see and subscribe. Thanks for joining us on this journey of woodworking, joinery, metalwork, blacksmithing and good times in a dirty shed, love you Shedulencia!

In this Dirty Shed Creations episode we have the highs and lows of how to make a front door.
1) Bradford City Council weren't too keen on the grilles across the window, so removing the grilles from the front door is our first job;
2) fitting the letterbox to the front door is a right bloody faff, but luckily Uncle Al isn't the gorilla he appears to be and does a tidy job, but it does raise a few issues; 
3) with fitting the door in mind Al is aware that the door jamb is only 35mm whereas our door is 45mm, so he comes up with a cheeky trick to do as much work offsite prior to the fit and therefore maintain an excellent finish;
4) with all the amends and additions the door needs to be refinished with flame and lacquer!
