Great Job! Very creative. Great DIY techniques. One small suggestion. I built my costume mirror doors by laminating MDF also. One finish trick I have used several times is to fill the edges of the door with spackling compound and sand a couple of times before priming. The edge of MDF never looks good with just priming and painting. Also, the spackle will fill any small cracks left where the laminates don't meet perfectly. It's not much more time and work, doesn't cost anything but leaves the edge with a very finished look.
Desert Pro Tips for painting, pre wet your brushes, occasionally submerge paint brush in water while painting, keep an old but clean wet towel nearby and wrap your brush while not working.
Looks great, my only thing would be to polish the aluminum instead of vinyl on it. Longer lasting, better looking results. Otherwise, it looks great! Love that hardware.
OMG we had doors replaced in our whole place a few months after we moved in because they were garbage, hollow core doors that were literally coming apart. Our local door guy had a dedicated power plane set at 4 degrees to make room for the doors to close tightly. He'd just automatically run it across the latch side to get a proper solid fit. The 4 degrees is enough to make the clearance work nicely, but it's not enough that you even notice it when looking at the door.
Using chrome vinyl will make it les durable. You can acctually with some work polish up aluminum to a chrome like finish. First, sand it as smoth as you can with increasing grits and then use aluminum polishing combound with a buffing wheel on a drill. There's a Star Brite aluminum polish that will prevent oxidation that's used for boats that will prevent an mat oxidation layer to build up after. You might have to reaply it now and then since I don't know how fingerprints will affect the surfce but if it holds up to marine environment it should hold up for a bathroom.
Great video and please wear a mask and have ventilation when cutting particle board as the methylenen chloride in particle board is what killed my dad, so, beware of that, thanks!😊 oh and here is shocker folks, wait until night, turn all the lights off in your wood shop, and turn on an intense bright flashlight, and wave it around the air space, and behold, all the dust floating in your shop that you cannot see when the lights are on....!
Great door build! Personally i would use door mounts that would allow the entire door to be hinged and therefore you could add trim on the side you wanna hide gaps from the door. Would be visually hinges on the back side..but considering often those doors with hidden rooms behind isnt a room you typically stay in, then it shouldnt matter that much visually
awesome! my thoughts is maybe just buy aluminium polish with an orbital and make the door handle shiny like a mirror instead of the chrome vinyl because the finish leaves a lot to be desired imo. Also I know acrylic scratches super easily so i'm wondering how it'll hold how just with normal cleaning. i'd just get a long mirror at ikea and upcycle it or buttjoin two together. great video otherwise! you have great skills for the project and also for the pacing and video.
Yooooo Elisha, one handed caulking while decending down a step ladder... show off😂😂😂 This is another FANTASTICALLY cool Pneumatic Addict project!! Where do you come up with this stuff!! Blessings to the family for 2024 my friend, Dirty Jersey out!!
Well this was a good idea until I heard the word barn doors+bathroom. Great execution, looks really nice. I was actually thinking of doing a half door in my basement bathroom to my closet where I would keep my hamper. This was inspired after seeing a laundry pass-through on a Texas house flipping show.
Crazy! And I know that took a while by all the tee shirt changes. Curious why you didn't remove the sill plate at the bottom of the wall so you don't have a stepover. I'm sure being a new house you have leftover flooring material to do the patching. Or just do a threshold.
Why do you go so many months between posting anymore? I have been a fan of yours since you started. And I love your channel! But, I do wish you would post more!
👌👌👌I am a technical employee, I like technical work, I enjoy technical work # I am a construction electrical engineer # I am a professional technical welder # Implementation of all types of building water pipes # My country is in unemployment crisis, any person or construction company wants, I can become a good worker.

Nice job, my only concern is when either your washer/drier dies and you have to replace how are you going to get them out & in again without trashing your secret door?
Why would the secret door be a problem? It doesn't interfere with the washing machine or dryer at all. We actually just replaced the washing machine about a month ago. We simply slid it out of the space, took it out the laundry room door, and slid in the new one.
@@PneumaticAddict The only thing that feels off to me, and it's a personal problem, is that I couldn't comfortably use a bathroom that has a door that doesn't lock. Even if I was sure I was alone in the house, I just can't feel comfortable doing that. I'd have to lock the laundry door I guess.
If you have a SawStop table saw, be careful cutting Mirror Acrylic because the Mirror coating might transfer enough electricity to trigger the Saw Stop protection circuit as seen here: ruclips.net/video/q2-RdcuFYy8/видео.html Just be sure to disable the SawStop protection before cutting Mirror Acrylic.
Very cool door. I have 2 questions. 1 weird and 1 shop related. What is the natural color of your hair, only seen the light blue tint, and why are the handles on your cabinets in the workshop down by the ground instead of higher? Thanks.
You've got a sharp eye! The handles on my shop cabinets are upside down because they are recycled upper cabinets I inherited from a friend. I need to get around to moving them.
For all you NEWBIES and old heads who get lazy...NEVER PUT YOUR HAND UNDER / behind (1:12) THE board you are cutting with a circular saw!!!! ONE good (bad) kick back and say goodbye to your digits!!!!!!!
First time one of your videos came up in my feed, would love to see a little bit more of your planning to show how you decided on the mechanism prior to cutting things up. Also, is DP a sponsor? Because it sounded a bit like an ad, and it says includes paid promotion, just my two cents as a new viewer, but I prefer when the host says who the sponsor is when they do the sponsored, or put something on screen to show that that is in fact the part that’s sponsored
Random video in my feed but I clicked thru to the end to see the look. Sadly, it's style over function. Stepping over that baseboard threshold makes no sense no me, especially with a laundry basket in hand going in and coming out. It's sorta inevitable that it will get kicked and show scuffs, dents and/or bends.
As the video gets towards the end, it almost gets too much when you’re touting the benefits of DAP. Starts to feel like just an ad rather than a DIY video. Would hope that for future videos you’re a little more upfront about all of that, it just feels better, especially because I’m not sure if you are promoting other brands as well and I don’t know. The other thing I didn’t notice was when you put the frame around the door, did you mimic that shampoo again? It didn’t look like you did, and so did that end up mattering in the end? Another thing that I would’ve liked to seen more of was exactly how the hinge gets installed, it doesn’t look like there’s a spring loaded part to it, so if you install the pins first, how do you get the door in there? Is there a cut out on one of the metal bars? I couldn’t tell. Finally, I get from the end of the video that you have done this house custom for yourself from scratch. That’s cool, but this very narrow door doesn’t seem like it’s totally up to code, and if somebody is overweight, or has a wheelchair or a walker or something, they would have a lot of trouble using this new door you put in. Which is to say, I assume you’re planning on living in this house for the rest of your life, but features done this way could make it hard to sell.
Watching more of the video, it’s clear that DP is your sponsor, but again, I prefer when the host says the sponsor is upfront, it kind of seems like it’s hard to know if your opinion of the product is legit or not because they’re sponsor, but you haven’t actually said that at the top of the video.and because you’re wearing the Home Depot T-shirt, now I have to wonder if you’re responsible by Home Depot as well.

glad you're back, you were always one of my fav woodworking creators
I bumped onto your great videos again. Glad you post only when there is actual work, and it is well thought out.
So glad you are back doing videos again. They are always informative, entertaining and well produced. I hope you are able to make more!
i,am very glad you are back and i hope you stay back every week. love from holland

Thank you so much! 😊Doing a small bathroom and this door definitely solves a lot of problems for my project...
Wow, an Absolutely beautiful door to your laundry room using your superior and skilled Craftsmanship!
Well done!
Secret door? Say no more - I'm in! Love the magnet catch as well. Turned out great!
Was just wondering where you'd went. Glad to see you're back. Hope all has been well. Thank you for the content.
that cut job on your hinge.... beautiful!
Great idea. Perfect way to disguise the door.
Looks great, my only thing would be to polish the aluminum instead of vinyl on it. Longer lasting, better looking results. Otherwise, it looks great! Love that hardware.

Cool video! The door isn't perfectly invisible, but it's so close that most people wouldn't see it if they didn't know it was already there.
What a gratis Job! I love the (nearly) invisibel door🎉
This gave me some good ideas for a door I need to create in an unusual location and situation. Thanks for the tips!

also one for the cat too ! 🐈
@@pmlstk For sure, but, just try and put one on any cat, good luck!
Was going to say that she should use a mask when cutting particle board like MDF. I even use one when cutting regular plywood too.
@@Dragonited For sure buddy!!!
Sounds like you’d also recommend a dust collection system.
I’d really like to do this, but my bathroom is nowhere near my laundry room. 😂 kidding, always great videos.
yet another mind-blowing project of yours! truly amazing work!
This turned out so well! Great job and ingenuity.
Small tip - Slower-setting epoxy (most brands offer 30 minute, for example) gives you more time to work and is also stronger once it sets.
Thanks for the info!

This is epic!

Doesn't seem like you're in Alaska anymore! Thanks for another good video.
LOVE IT! Taking notes for the future. :)

I like that rabbit on your baseboards 🐇
It really disappears when you open the side door😮. Great Job!
Thank you! 😊
Nice job, i was wondering about the inset clearance. i just bought a Ryobi 6.5 saw like yours. I really like it better than my 7 1/4 Ridgid saw.
Yooooo Elisha, one handed caulking while decending down a step ladder... show off😂😂😂 This is another FANTASTICALLY cool Pneumatic Addict project!! Where do you come up with this stuff!! Blessings to the family for 2024 my friend, Dirty Jersey out!!
Haha thanks Mike! Good to hear from you ✌️
looks great 😀
Are you guys gonna do a budget on the house build!???
Another great video
رائعة بحبك وبحب العمل معك
Very nice. Not sure if access hole was there or did you open and finish the hole in prep for this project.
Nicely done...
awesome job!

Looks nice but that trip hazard is a matter of when, not if it will happen.
MDF dust mmm yummo get a dusk mask save your own life

I actually found out the hard way. That was an expensive mistake

no i think, hidden door, hidden room, good safe room
MDF is really bad for you. You should attach vacuums to your tools when cutting it and put on a dust mask.
Future you wants you to put on a dust mask.

0:14 stated very clearly, right at the top of the video.
Fair, my apologies, I guess I missed it
A secret door. Wonderful. What happened to your hair? 😮Let me guess… you fell head first in a paint can?! 😂🤣😂

Why is it a secret door
como el chapo :V
She is so fine
You may want to trim those eye lashes at the outside corners for a more natural look
