    We were wondering how to make a door and then we realized wait, we can do a door upgrade instead! Since we had flat panel doors it was actually really easy. And it allowed us to get a completely custom door without paying a lot of money. I think this idea could also be applied to closet doors or other interior doors that you want to makeover.

      Why do you big RUclipsrs always need multiple channels for your content? Why can't you just separate your content into playlists on just one channel? This just makes it even harder for smaller RUclipsrs to get noticed.

    8:00 was me as a housepainter when I finally gave a woman an honest answer about her 10 color swatches in variations of beige. She didn't understand at first and I was like "you can't tell when it's on a 2x2" square, but once this covers your entire living room you're gonna realize it's pink.
    Most of the time I would just say "if you like it I love it, I'm gonna put it on and make it look nice and then leave, you're the one that has to live in it."
    Of course that led to me having to repaint the same bathroom three times because it wasn't just the right shade of yellow.

    Love it. It really changed the focal point of that wall and brought out a different tone in the wood. I realize the pictures were different times of the day, but it still made a subtle difference in the kitchen palette. Great stop motion too :).

    • @EvanAndKatelyn
      @EvanAndKatelyn  6 лет назад

    HDTV was on all weekend at my work and I could not stop thinking that you guys should have a show on there. You are so much more entertaining and you also make projects much more accessible to normal people.

  • @ARepublicIfYouCanKeepIt
    @ARepublicIfYouCanKeepIt 6 лет назад +89

    Good job guys.
    A few pointers:
    1. Purchase a sheet of foam board insulation to use as a spoil board. Your work is fully supported, as well as largely non-slip. Use this spoil board for project after project. Replace it when it's falling apart, which should be quite a long while provided you set your blade height to just clear the material thickness. I use this on literally every project.
    2. "Clamping" could've been achieved with scrap lumber, sheet goods, etc. Simply place the scrap on top of the faux door front and weight it down with anything handy. As an aside, since the plywood is thin and not structural, clamping isn't actually necessary. Letting the glue set for a couple of hours would suffice nicely.
    3. A chisel and hammer would've make quick work if notching out the hinge-side faux stile.
    Lastly, and this is just personal preference, I would've installed new brushed nickel hinges to match the door lever and adjoining kitchen hardware.

    • @EvanAndKatelyn
      @EvanAndKatelyn  6 лет назад +11

      Thank you for the tips! Definitely need to get our hands on a waste board. The handle actually is the same level of sheen on our kitchen (it just might not have come through in video form). Thanks!

    • @AishuB14
      @AishuB14 5 лет назад +10

      EvanAndKatelyn John Coloe was referring to the white hinges, and not the door lever when suggesting the hinges to be brushed nickel.

    Just a note - on using the hole saw for the door hole, if anyone does not have the perfect size hole saw accessory, just use the flush trim bit on your small router.
    thanks for the vid, looks good.

  • @meamscifi
    @meamscifi 6 лет назад +12

    Great idea! A couple of tips. you can use a pin nailer to attach the diagonal pieces along with the wood glue. secondly, your paint sprayer has a knob that allows you to turn the paint spray vertically or horizontally. i think you need another spray coat because I can still see the spray patterns...But still a great video and funny as always. Sorry if I sound picky...Lol

    • @EvanAndKatelyn
      @EvanAndKatelyn  6 лет назад +2

    I just have a question cause am not an expert, how does the door thickness not affected after installing an additional 4mm of plywood sheet or whatever thickness of plywood you used.
    How it still flat with wall after increasing door thickness?

    • @Zindel07
      @Zindel07 4 года назад +5

      Only because i've watched so many of these kinds of videos. First you'll notice that they only did the plywood on the outside. If they did it on the inside they would need to remove the stops and move it back 1/4"
      Now it's not perfectly flush anymore either but because trim is usually about 1/4" or more it's much less noticeable but it doesn't line up with the door jamb anymore.
      Still is a good way to give a good update even if it's not perfect it's much cheaper than buying new doors.

      Hahaha yeah we didn't use much at all. It was our first time using a paint sprayer and we didn't want to get multiple paint cans and went overboard by a big shot. I'm sure a paint sample and a brush would have covered it fine and reduced the cost by a lot.

      @@EvanAndKatelyn For a project requiring more painting, try a HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) sprayer. All the same principles of an airless sprayer apply, however, the efficacy of material application is *much* greater.
      Applying paint with an HVLP sprayer, to me, is more satisfying, the result is superior to that achieved with an airless sprayer, there's *much* less overspray, and the costs are lower since more paint, stain, etc. ends up on the piece bring covered, rather than the surrounding area, not to mention in one's lungs.

      $38 bucks is cheap ass paint imo. Also buying a quart is usually over half the price of a gallon. 4 quarts = a gallon. So just buy the gallon in case you use over 1 quart. Nothing sucks more than spending the same price for half the paint.

      They didn't actually need the spacers at the end. If pieces are cut appropriately they would move from where they belong but if they wanted to marke sure cause of random short cuts then just cleaning after they press out any paint, adding the other board and removing would've sufficed.

      idk if I'm replying a bit too late and you've already found out about these, but the angle of the plywood is 45 degrees. Half way to 90.
      Spray painter should be turned 90 degrees for more paint to be applied at the same time. It eases the work process. The tip of the sprayer can be turned, so they don't have to turn the sprayer itself 90 degrees.
