    Wow Mike!
    Impressive video.
    As the Designer on the project, i have to say it was one of the most seamless, pleasurable experiences ive had in my 35 years of designing homes.
    Your professionalism is stellar. I’ve read the comments and saw so many complaining about cost. I laugh, as the cost definitely met with the details it took to achieve such an awesome piece of art. To date, your work is one of the most commented on in the space.
    I cant wait for the next project.
    Thank you for an awesome experience working with you.

    I subscribe to your channel from my personal account but this video popped up in my own channel feed. I love all your work and followed you closely over the years for the new loft/shop renovation. The river doors you did for yourself were great and these river doors being translucent was an excellent touch. Subtle and add to the aesthetics. Very nice.

    Congratulations! That's big time moving that much money but you DEFINITEY earned it. your videos are genuine, you rebuilt a whole house pretty much on your own (no studios sponsering you, no stupid scripts, no pretending it's your house when it's really not.... it was literally YOUR home and we knew it was all authentic) and you deserve the kudos! Here's to more great projects coming your way!

    Good morning 🌅, That was a great video, I love the timber and epoxy, I think I would of put a stainless steel channel in the bottom, for the guide to run in, and done something similar for the top, and stopped it short so you can’t see it from the sides, and if you were unsure about the thickness you might been able to get someone to deep cut the wood, and made up a cure of plywood and edged the edge before you glued on the timber back to it, I have done this before over many years, but you do need a very large vacuum bag set up, That way, you can make the door as sick as you’d like, and do not see the the plywood edge as the resin will cover it, and the door will be a lot more stable,
    Good luck for the future very enjoyable watching you make and supply a high-end pair of doors that look very nice well done ,
    And I wish you all that success for the future , very old English dude living in France retired,

      I where about to comment on the same. First thing that struck me the last seconds of the video :)
      Perhaps you sometimes want to only open one of the doors and not both, but a simple pulley, would have been awesome.
      And bumpstop/softclose.

  • @Fellbear
    @Fellbear Месяц назад

    Great work! Note: if you pick up metal C channel, Place painters tap along the long narrow sides, lay it across the wood, clap them in place against your wood to your table, it will keep the boards from warping when gluing or epoxying. The Painters tap will come off and the C Channel will be easier to pry off. Do some tests, until you feel comfortable with the technique.
    All the best, Congratulations on your first commission!
