Great video’s, I’m really enjoying everything you put out, especially no music and text instead of talking and the whole bunch of well used tools and machinery, has to be the first dirty Festo drill I’ve seen. Hope you can keep them coming, great stuff.
The stairs would be made new again.That process was awesome to see! Motivated me to restore my own 1865 stairs as well. Scraping paint was tough, but now they are sanded and stained and will look great. Thanks for motivating me!!
You should eye down off the first door frame leg to set the second one so it's within wind. If you can't eye off the leg because of a wall etc.., then use the string method from corner to corner, and when they touch in the middle, the casing is in wind. Shouldn't need the spirit level on the second leg to check plumb.
The funny thing is there is always a way of getting round things that some may feel is insurmountable, but the experienced tradesman has the knowledge and the tricks in his back pocket to overcome many problems....this is what separates the wheat from the chaff....
This is a great video! I've needed to replace my front door and found a great solid mid-modern style door at a local builder salvage. And I got an oak frame. But I was not clear on some of the details. You covered it all. I especially like how neatly you positioned the screw holes, the plugs (I had never thought of that), and packing on the side pieces. Thanks very much for making this and posting!
A please to watch. Re the fingers near the saw, this made me cringe as I’m currently under hospital due to a nail in wood kickback incident. Good job the blade was set at 10mm for a rebate otherwise I would be less digital. Please be careful and keep posting. You are inspiring home workshop enthusiasts everywhere. 👍👍👍
Just watched the door frame for the guest room(AKA) dog house lol You brought class to an otherwise boring store door frame , well done. Ps thanks for the tour around . Bathroom is great. Your window centre of attraction.

Love your vids great work, however I always fit stops after hanging door, spesh if you find a lovely old but twisted door! Keep up the good work, thanks for posting

Admire your craftsmanship, would have loved to see you build and install that wooden sink. Talk about cliffhangers; can’t wait to see you next project videos in this wonderful house!
Yeah, that was the last job i was doing where im thinking "i really should be filming this, why the hell am i not filming this" etc etc, and then i finally bit the bullet on the arch window which i started about a week after the sink was finished. shame really as the sink would have made an amazing first video! I have a couple more to do though for the ensuites so you will see one being built next year some time.
Ooo ! It's very nice old house! And with Your perfect works, will be beautiful result! I'm carpenter many years and repair old houses. I know that not many people who can work with old project. It's difficult, but beutiful. Good luck, and I'm waiting next video. Respect to You!
You are such a masterful craftsman and it would be nice if you lived close by; tips from you would make my tasks easier. I love your humor. Ignore all of the negative comments, they have no idea the amount of skill you have in woodworking, metal work and other areas.
Top notch craftsmanship with sub par materials. If i was doing that job i would have only plugged one row of screws because the stops would cover the other row. That's not a criticism, just the way i would have done it, 👍💪🔨🇮🇪
Ballsy Bro! Installing and with glue, the door stops without a door! 😂 Never mind, I know you are a woodworking Demigod in the shop! Love your channel friend. You truly are the epitome of a master craftsman!
That table saw setup is deceptively safe with that big metal cover over the blade top. If something gets picked up, it will just jam the thing. I'm getting rid of my table saw because I have other methods for rip cuts which are more accurate and it takes up some space.
You sure have your work... cut out for you. You certainly have the skills and tooling, and I hope time and interest keep up the pace. Perhaps a kettle in each room?
I can't get enough of watching you. That is going to be a dream home. But why did you paint the bathroom so dark? It's a small room and the dark makes it seem even smaller.
Remember: it is critical to mutter "perfect" whenever you measure something no matter how wrong it is or else everyone will think you're an incompetent fool.
UK must be still in 18th century with their 5 pounds doors from Wickes and frames for 25. In the same time I would fit minimum 4 frames in rest of the Europe
If it is a new estate built by one of the big companies; they pay sub contractors not very much per door,, usually not the highest calibre that take that kind of work as well.
I'm not sure what you were expecting from door casings that're milled and left to sit for months or a year before use. They're always shit, that's why they're cheap mate!
We all have off days! Why did you pack under both legs, unnecessary. You say "level this way before putting bottom screws." You built the wall plumb, right? Even if its not plumb you are governed by the face of the plasterboard, any "level this way" required will screw up the architrave. Lining casts a shadow onto moisture resistant plasterboard, meaning lining was not ripped down enough. Finally, after fitting right leg you say you would hang the door, is it swinging into the ensuite or into the bedroom? lol
"level' this way first.." - PLUMB!!!.. Level = horizontal.. and wtf are you using those nasty plastic shims for? Long folding wedges are infinitely adjustable in place by simply sliding past each other..
I make my own timber shims from scraps of structural timber, (usually 4"X2"). I use a shim jig on my table saw. I cut the scraps to 8" in length and cut a blast of them at one time. I usually fill an old drywall compound bucket with them. I usually put a few into my various toolboxes and a tool bucket I use for finish work. They have a hundred and one uses, I nearly always have one or two of them in my toolbelt as well, 👍😁💪🔨🇮🇪
Salvaging those parts shows how great a craftsman you are
I know it’s only a door casing but it’s a pleasure watching you work 👍
It's cool seeing all your past/future projects in the inside of your house at the end.
Great video’s, I’m really enjoying everything you put out, especially no music and text instead of talking and the whole bunch of well used tools and machinery, has to be the first dirty Festo drill I’ve seen. Hope you can keep them coming, great stuff.
Videos of this nature are great because there’s always knowledge to gain and lessons to learn. Great video mate

Your bathroom looks amazing, I love the sink you made, and those taps are a bit futuristic looking.
Nice clean job.
I prefer installing door stoppers last, without them it's easy to cut hinges pockets with router.
ye, helps if door happens to be twisted as well so you can place the stops accordingly

I am not alone!

I always like to watch what you are doing. Just a door casing? That is hard when the frame is wonky. Thanks for the demonstration.

so architrave is just the top then? interesting. in woodworking the entire border is referred to as architraves.
Quality craftsmanship there

A beautiful house, thanks for posting.
I love youre house renovating series. I'l be a little bit too old fpr that.
Looking forward to you restoring this Victorian house. I'm sure you'll do a cracking job. Also loved the REBATE hint for your U.S. viewers.

Lovely job, a new door casing and a brand new word "Parralelismness" ;-)
Those Victorian stairs look murderous. I'm looking forward to seeing you tackle them with your talent.
Top job....! I now know how to fit a door lining. Quality as always.
You are such a masterful craftsman and it would be nice if you lived close by; tips from you would make my tasks easier. I love your humor. Ignore all of the negative comments, they have no idea the amount of skill you have in woodworking, metal work and other areas.

Nice work
You can see why Robin Clevett uses MDF for door casings. I always look through the wood skip when I go to the tip these days, you can't buy good wood
Indeed, I also try to salvage as much old timber as I can.
That table saw setup is deceptively safe with that big metal cover over the blade top. If something gets picked up, it will just jam the thing. I'm getting rid of my table saw because I have other methods for rip cuts which are more accurate and it takes up some space.
Bon courage pour la suite

@@NewYorkshireWorkshop Ahh, fishin' for helpers :)
Hello, I see you make the dowels to cover the screws themselves. But with which drill do you do that. Regards
Woowww... supper... nice video i'm waiting to next video... thank you.. & team... god bless you... ❤️❤️❤️😁👍🤝🙏
So we've got videos to look forward to for the next ten years by the look of the property. :-)
You are the boss!
I must admit I always cheat and fit the jams after I've hung the door:)
I can't get enough of watching you. That is going to be a dream home. But why did you paint the bathroom so dark? It's a small room and the dark makes it seem even smaller.
your bathroom sink top is beautiful. What was the wood used?
it is made from baltic birch ply with Tamo Ash veneer on top. Im working on a smaller version for the ensuite right now!
@@NewYorkshireWorkshop I hope you film that. Enjoy your videos immensely
¡Buen trabajo!
precise work,like
Bravo respekt ❤😍✌
I know the feeling been given some awful door linings when ordered them
glue and pin the stops without the door fitted?
Faith in the bubble. @ 8:11.
@@4n2earth22 and faith in the door too
What is the shim material?
Too late now, but a pocket door would have been really good for that ensuite!
Hi Russ, where abouts in Yorkshire are you based?
Is this your house? Are you a property developer or are you just renovating a house for someone else? Ether way it’s amazing!
Its my wifes house
recently I've been using douglas fir more and more, the quality of pine has gone down the toilet lately.
Why is the pine quality bad lately?
@@philipthomey7884 I do not know really, there's just more knots in it and you're paying about 2-3 times the price for worse quality than pre covid.
Remember: it is critical to mutter "perfect" whenever you measure something no matter how wrong it is or else everyone will think you're an incompetent fool.
Plumb not level!
good luck on the renovations ,i darent bite off something so invested :o
me neither but couldnt afford a house in this area if it was in good condition!
still looks like a lot of work
👍🇺🇸
Didn’t see you arris anything!
👍🏾💙
UK must be still in 18th century with their 5 pounds doors from Wickes and frames for 25. In the same time I would fit minimum 4 frames in rest of the Europe
This must be exactly how our door frames weren't fitted when they built the house probably on a Friday afternoon after a heavy lunch.
If it is a new estate built by one of the big companies; they pay sub contractors not very much per door,, usually not the highest calibre that take that kind of work as well.
Spot on mate house is about 20 odd years old on a reasonably sizes new build estate.
Just run those plugs through the table saw
That looked very time consuming for such cheap product
