Thanks for the reply Josh..I am enclosing a partial area of a patio to accommodate a sitting room for a severely handicapped person abd I don't have the height to get a regular door there so I'm thinking that I nay have to build one. It will be a sliding exterior for wheelchair access..
@@tonyalangdon763 lol, we have all been there. Maybe you could edge glue a 6" piece on both the top and bottom to keep the symmetry... I think that may be the least noticeable fix but maybe you will think of something better.
@@JoshWrightWoodworking that makes sense, I'll work on that. I made this shed and doors from skids, would it be possible to share a pic with you. I measure the top board, 7'2", I still did 6'2"
Wow, finally, a video that shows you how to make a basic interior door with basic tools. Thank you, sir, for taking the time to show us that it can be achieved. I need to replace all of my interior doors , nd with the help of your video, it will now be possible for this 64 yr old female to finally start this project. 👏👍
Pro-tip: as you were assembling the door, you were wiping the glue spill out off, after clamping everything together, let the bead of glue dry then just snap it off later. This will keep you from having to sand to get all the glue smear off and your whole surface will stay plumb. Just a light sanding will clean up where the glue was.
Box fan with a home air filter zip tied to the intake end of it! Got that one from a friend who would stick it by their door and brush their cat in front of it. That cat is larger than a raccoon. And we have some big raccoons in the area
Door blanks like this are going for $380+ in many places. I know, because I’ve been looking for a door for the cabin I’ve been remodeling. Exceptional value in making these yourself. Good job!
Great job buddy, you have inspired this 56 year old to try my hand at making a set of doors for my study. Good to see a young man working hard. you are a true craftsman
I have done this before, and it works great. A couple of things you might want to add to your shop to make your life easier is a couple of folding saw horses and a 1/2 pc of plywood to make an offload table, and a rolling stand to feed. I do a lot of stuff on job sites rather than in a shop, so I have had to make do a lot, but anytime you get stuff over 2-3ft long having a little extra support makes it easier, safer, and gives you a better product. But that said I really enjoy both the way you are doing things, and the way you explain them. As a teacher I enjoy watching others that teach, and explain things in a simple understandable way. It doesn't take a genius to make complicated well complicated, but it does take one to simplify things.
Very nice job Josh. So nice to see such a young man with these skills! Never lose respect for your power tools as you continue to build your skills. Consider always using a push stick no matter what your depth of cut is! My rule of thumb (why I still have two at 73 years old) is to never allow my hand to pass over the blade on my jointer and table saw no matter what the depth of cut is set at. Enjoyed your vid! John
I use that same rule. My dad worked for a man when I was kid that built gazebos. One day the man was cutting a large rabbit in a 4x4 cedar post on the table saw. He was guiding the board over the blade with his hands, not really thinking much of it, I guess, because the blade was only cutting through half the thickness of the board. However, there a really bad knot in the board and when the dado blade hit it , the board pretty much exploded and his hand went right down on the blade. Lost his pinky, ring finger and a quarter of his palm. The stuff of nightmares.
Nice to see you leaving the panels floating - many people glue and nail/screw everything together, forgetting about seasonal wood movement (and boy do we get plenty of that in the UK!). Also good to see a small table saw being used for both joinery and re-sawing. I love learning, and taught me quite a bit, thanks!
Bro, I clicked on this video after seeing your comment (which was apparently the first one). He has a table saw, mitre saw, band saw and enough clamps what else do you need for this. Me: trying to figure out how to complete a project with my only tool - the circular saw! 🤪
@@soyythomas well I guess on the majority of videos I watch it seems like everybody has a warehouse full of tools. This guy has enough to get by but not an overabundance.
Best thing about this video...is the safety disclaimer...awesome job on the door...awesome job on the warning....but man those cuts...i pray for your digits and your midsection on a kickback!
I appreciate your concern and I agree alot of the cuts were very dangerous. Keep in mind this video is a few years old, I have changed many of my bad habits since
The way you make what is clearly a complex operation look simple and easy gets me every time. Thanks for another entertaining and interesting project vid dude.
Great job! It is wonderful to see someone from the younger generation that is will to work with their hands. Thank you for being an upcoming craftsman.
Router will make light use of creating a channel in that pine. If you have a router table you can speed up that process. Much faster than using the table saw and a chisel. Thanks for sharing. +1 for giving measurements. Most charge for those.
You could suggest to your Mom that a translucent finish would be nice. Say a white wax. The wood will darken beneath but won’t go yellow like varnished pine does.
To be fair, I saw her floors and they are wood, as well as wood baseboards. I don’t think there is even stain on them. I feel she’s just balancing things out in the house by painting the doors while benefiting from the solid wood ;)
Great job! Thanks for the training help. Had to reduce the size for a 27 x 73 for a house in Tijuana, Mexico. I used Visio to get the dimension perfect. Your right, the natural wood, and knots are better with just a shellac, or oil.
Thank you for the video. It is the best woodworking what I have seen. I am planning to make similar door like you. With basic tools what I have. Table saw, cheap plunge router and now circular saw and of course chisels and handsaws. I had some theory how I could do that, but now I seen it in reality, that it is possible. Not just with tools from best toolmakers.
Broooooooo! That’s awesome! REAL WOOD DOORS! You don’t see that often nowadays! My house growing up built in early 70’s had all wood doors! Thank you for the video! 👍. Great Job & you’ve inspired me to “DO” this! I don’t know about anyone else out there but it bothers me that I don’t have real wood doors! We can build our own and way cheaper than the cheap hollow doors they mostly use today!! Hopefully mom & dad changed their mind on painting them!!!
Well done young man! It's refreshing to see the younger generation doing such fine work. This video showed up in my feed at the perfect time as I'm planning on remaking all of the doors for the closets in our house.
One thing I have taken seriously and seen as game changer is using simple contractor grade tools for heavy commercial work, your table saw and miter as viewed most profitable tools for a very low cost, awesome video, thank you pal. ❤
I just found your channel. Im impressed. Real world tools, real world shop, awesome builds. You've earned my subscription. Keep up the good work brother.
Dude, I saw a shop vac in there somewhere, adapt that thing to collect your table saw dust to cut down on mess, fire and breathing hazards. I adapt one to connect to every tool I can. You don’t need an expensive dust collection unit with ducts everywhere to benefit. There’s even how tos out there for making a cyclonic first stage out of a trash barrel to increase capacity and help vac filters last longer.
This is exactly what I needed. Unlike a lot of videos out there, you showed us how to build quality doors without expensive specialized tools. I am curious about something. I noticed that you didn't use a planar. Did any of your pieces give you problems with bowing? Excellent camera work and narration, without annoying music and other nonsense.
I just made one of these myself with a table saw and circular saw in a parking lot on sawhorses. No planer. Just picked 5 super straight kiln dried boards at Lowes. Took 10 minutes to pick out 5, but no issues with bowing, just some cosmetic sanding on a few of the joints by the time I was done.
Wonderful job on these doors. Now that it's been about a year since you built them I'd love to know if you have any comments on how they've moved over time? Any issues with expansion or contraction of the solid lumber? any warping as they've dried out?
Wow, thank you so much for sharing, these doors are made better and stronger than all those high price doors at the big box stores, they sandwich 2 pieces together and throw garbage in the middle and call it a door, kinda like making peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and fall apart the same if it gets wet
Well done, as soon as I seen you using your table saw to make your female grooves it took me back to my woodworking days a few years ago. I did everything with just a few power tools and the rest hand tools and always free pallets or lumber so it took some crafty methods to come up with quality craftsmanship. Boy is this fun. Your doors come up so nice man. Better than I could do. Definitely saving your vid so I can make these. I need bedroom doors for my kiddos rooms lol
Pretty much the exact doors I'm planning to build. Thanks for the detailed guide! Gonna try to tackle them as both interior doors as well as thinner versions of them as bifold closet doors.
Where are these doors installed? I built a door using single-piece components and the wild humidity swings would cause the door to warp in Spring and become unusable. Dead flat when I made it in winter.
I am loving your videos!!! You’re so amazing! I love working with wood and building things, but it took my foolish self to become an (*cough* older) adult to really appreciate making things with wood with my own hands. What I wouldn’t give to go back to middle school and learn all I could from my woodworking class. And now I feel the same for my agriculture class!! Ugh. At least I got home-ec down pat early on in life. Hah!
Excellent work. You have some good skills to expand from. I know it’s been said but please consider your shop safety a bit more. I’m mostly concerned with your tablesaw procedures. When cross cutting, try using a miter guide. Even if you don’t need it. Boards can easily get mis-aligned and will catch the blade and kickback. Also wouldn’t ever pass your hand over the sawblade no matter what. Use a push stick even when you don’t “need” it. I saw later in the video you were using a stick and that’s great.
I would also add that maybe one of your next projects be a table saw cabinet. There are many examples out there of rolling ones but watching it wobble while cutting made me cringe. Woodworking accidents can change your life. Maybe a shop vac on the dust port after the cabinet as well. Other than that, the doors look awesome. Good work.
Hi Josh, you are soooo talented. Thank you for posting and I truly enjoyed watching this video, you have inspired me to us what I have to build the doors I need for my new pantry. Keep up the awesome work.
You just showed up on my home page and I just subscribed. I've made barn doors with a similar method, I just used t&g boards (which gets a little more pricey). Great work man!
The doors turned out beautiful when I started I only had a couple of tools myself excellent excellent job keep up the great work love the videos new subscriber
Great Job Man! I recently found your channel and I love the idea for creating content using minimal dimensional lumber to create projects that can be easily accomplished with very basic tools. Keep up the great work!
I was so nervous watching that part. I just knew one of those tenon cutoffs was gonna bind at the front of the blade and eject towards him. Now I know how other people feel when they watch me work and I’m like “it’s fine don’t worry so much!” 😂
Safety's an Illusion, Use Caution and Awareness of your Surroundings. Safety can be taken for granted.. I've done similar projects with only a Skillsaw, Guide Jig And a Jawhorse..in the field.. outside.. Respect your Tools and learn Proficiency accidents Can and Will happen, no matter how bubble wrapped the world is..
I made a couple of barn doors for my wife in our home, but I like how you did these doors and I might go back and make new doors based on your template. Thank you
I misses the humor in the "Mom comment". Respect and honor your mother until her very last breath even if you have to build 100 doors for her to paint. My Mother is 90 years old and I would move the Earth for her if she asked me. Cherish every moment because someday all you will have are the memories.
I like your doors, but have a question for you, I don't see where you left any room for seasonal wood expansion. Did I miss it? If not, can you tell me how long you've had the doors and if you have had any issues with that? I'm inquiring because I want to build a solid front door without panels and am concerned about expansion issues.
@@luisstanker1491 Haha. "Mess Swine" good one. While i work on something, it`s true that i am a "mess swine. I do tidy up regularly though. Your statement "In a dirty Workshop, a clean work will never arise" is a cute axiom but doesn`t actually carry much weight. Looks like he did a good job on his doors. Clean work as you say. He could work far more safely but we`re talking about mess grouchy man!
Awesome job man, I do recommend you get a dado stack for your table saw it will save you the cutting twice for the tongue and groove, also don’t need to clean it up with the chisel
Another shop safety tip for you when cutting on the band saw lower your blade guard down to about a quarter inch above your material a slip and you will cut into your finger. Learned this in high school shop class.
You are doing good for a young guy pushing. Keep pushing ! Remember with really good woodworkers, there is no "BOX" . doesn't exist, do not let folks try to drive you into or even tell you the "BOX EXISTS". Always think outside that "box". Your imaginary rules you speak of are a very very good growing tool to keep you looking in all directions for solutions. Woodworking is a series of challenges and all we do is dirscover the solution and apply it ! I like your vertical (Not up and down, ha , nice verbage) solutions. You got it going. Keep at it !!!!
You have a nice shop, take pride in it, I wish I had a large area for my shop; get you an workman shop apron, clean , sweep, dust after each project , or purchase a dust- collector with hose attachments; but other than that you did a great job, may God Bless you with higher wisdom, be safe.🙏🙏✨🕊️👍😇
@JoshWrightWoodworking well done! Make sure they are squared up before the glue dries. I love the fact you are working with your parents even if the painting will go against the grain for you...bahaha! I prefer no painting myself for the most part. Sometimes the wood is in too rough a shape and requires a lot of wood filler
Great job with what you had! Honestly well done. Like everyone commenting I did a lot of wincing when you were at the table saw. One moment I don't think anyone has mentioned is at 1:11 when you drag the piece back between the blade and the fence. Yikes! It is easy to get over confident with a table saw. Accidents happen and they are unpredictable. When I was 11 I had to help my father drive to the hospital after he cut half his thumb off on a table saw and he was a professional, worked maintenance in sawmills his whole life..
The best video on RUclips for how to make interior doors, simple tool list and design. I'll make my door the same way except I'll use a piece of 1/4" plywood Instead of the slats, keep up the good work and stay safe!

what of the door was made to short, is it possible to add a 12 inch extension? 🙁

This will keep you from having to sand to get all the glue smear off and your whole surface will stay plumb. Just a light sanding will clean up where the glue was.
Agreed! I learned this the hard way after doing a few glue ups. It is also easier.
You can also use a lightly damp and sponge or rag to wipe it off after you Pin the door
Thanks!
“Painted against my will” I feel for ya man. They look great!
It's nice to see a real person's workshop and seeing the kind of tools a real person would use! Thanks!
For sure!
Looks like my dust collection system...on the floor, in the machines, on my shirt, basically everywhere. Great job on the doors.

Probably could have remained unsaid.. seems a bit disrespectful ro Mom

You never cease to amaze me Josh. I love the comment about painting "against my will"...... agreed 👍

Probably should make sure your using good quality lumber that is dry. A store bought door can warp a
Iittle too

You A Pro my Brother!. 👏👏👏
Great job, however I you need to work safer, that table saw needs a proper stand and out feed table, stay safe
I was so nervous watching that part. I just knew one of those tenon cutoffs was gonna bind at the front of the blade and eject towards him. Now I know how other people feel when they watch me work and I’m like “it’s fine don’t worry so much!” 😂
Yes! please be safe. A kickback while your pulling that board and you could lose your right index finger.
And use a miter gauge for the cross cutting of the tenon shoulders, and a spacer block, not the fence, to get the length.
Safety's an Illusion, Use Caution and Awareness of your Surroundings. Safety can be taken for granted.. I've done similar projects with only a Skillsaw, Guide Jig And a Jawhorse..in the field.. outside.. Respect your Tools and learn Proficiency accidents Can and Will happen, no matter how bubble wrapped the world is..
@@mjolnirswrath23 promise I won't say I told you so
I made a couple of barn doors for my wife in our home, but I like how you did these doors and I might go back and make new doors based on your template. Thank you
Cares about his lungs but gives no fu cks about his fingers.
Hi Josh, I had to watch this vid again....the doors are beautiful!
Anyone know if this kid still has his fingers?
He’s young they’ll grow back🎉🎉🎉😊
Don't be such a pussy
Hilarious 😆
Well done! And no expensive tools, even better!!!
Beautiful doors, hopefully we can see the finished project.
I misses the humor in the "Mom comment". Respect and honor your mother until her very last breath even if you have to build 100 doors for her to paint. My Mother is 90 years old and I would move the Earth for her if she asked me. Cherish every moment because someday all you will have are the memories.
I’m with you man, I like the natural look.
Please, for the sake of your future girlfriends, use some push sticks or something dude. you gonna lose those fingers
My heart dropped EVERY TIME he was at the table saw. Sweating bullets over here!
@@cherokeehawkproperties3899 ikr
From some one who's lost fingers on one of them.... Use a push stick at least man!! Hurts like hell. Watching that was jaw clenching. But nice job!
Well, at least he uses a mask & eye protection. But, I too worried about those fingers as I watched.
Push stick but also push block for those close ups that can tend to bind with smaller pieces.
I like your doors, but have a question for you, I don't see where you left any room for seasonal wood expansion. Did I miss it? If not, can you tell me how long you've had the doors and if you have had any issues with that? I'm inquiring because I want to build a solid front door without panels and am concerned about expansion issues.
I know you are young, but that is probably the most unsafe operation of a table saw I’ve ever seen! Be safe , save those digits for future use.
Absolut true,,,🙈🤦♂️
And d whole Workshop is a big mess.
Shame on you for such a joung man.
@@luisstanker1491 shops get messy when working on a project. Lighten up lol!
@@glennryzebol4472
In a dirty Workshop, a clean work will never arise.
U a little messi swine too, i am sure.
@@luisstanker1491 Haha. "Mess Swine" good one. While i work on something, it`s true that i am a "mess swine. I do tidy up regularly though. Your statement "In a dirty Workshop, a clean work will never arise" is a cute axiom but doesn`t actually carry much weight. Looks like he did a good job on his doors. Clean work as you say. He could work far more safely but we`re talking about mess grouchy man!
@@glennryzebol4472 shop was messy before he started
Awesome job man, I do recommend you get a dado stack for your table saw it will save you the cutting twice for the tongue and groove, also don’t need to clean it up with the chisel
Kid, you are an inspiration. Keep it up!!
I like them. I would glue between slats minimum myself. Thanks for sharing.
Another shop safety tip for you when cutting on the band saw lower your blade guard down to about a quarter inch above your material a slip and you will cut into your finger. Learned this in high school shop class.
You are doing good for a young guy pushing. Keep pushing ! Remember with really good woodworkers, there is no "BOX" . doesn't exist, do not let folks try to drive you into or even tell you the "BOX EXISTS". Always think outside that "box". Your imaginary rules you speak of are a very very good growing tool to keep you looking in all directions for solutions. Woodworking is a series of challenges and all we do is dirscover the solution and apply it ! I like your vertical (Not up and down, ha , nice verbage) solutions. You got it going. Keep at it !!!!
Nice to see a younger man working with there hands and doing something positive. Nice vid!
You have a nice shop, take pride in it, I wish I had a large area for my shop; get you an workman shop apron, clean , sweep, dust after each project , or purchase a dust- collector with hose attachments; but other than that you did a great job, may God Bless you with higher wisdom, be safe.🙏🙏✨🕊️👍😇
@JoshWrightWoodworking well done! Make sure they are squared up before the glue dries. I love the fact you are working with your parents even if the painting will go against the grain for you...bahaha! I prefer no painting myself for the most part. Sometimes the wood is in too rough a shape and requires a lot of wood filler
Great job with what you had! Honestly well done. Like everyone commenting I did a lot of wincing when you were at the table saw. One moment I don't think anyone has mentioned is at 1:11 when you drag the piece back between the blade and the fence. Yikes! It is easy to get over confident with a table saw. Accidents happen and they are unpredictable. When I was 11 I had to help my father drive to the hospital after he cut half his thumb off on a table saw and he was a professional, worked maintenance in sawmills his whole life..
Checked out a few videos on how to make doors and this one is by far the best (for my tools at least). Thanks!
This is by far my favorite woodworking/DIY youtube channel, and I'm subscribed to probably 100 of them.
I love that there is sawdust everywhere and you spread your glue with a finger. That's how most if us do it I imagine :) Subscribed
The best video on RUclips for how to make interior doors, simple tool list and design. I'll make my door the same way except I'll use a piece of 1/4" plywood Instead of the slats, keep up the good work and stay safe!
Exquisite use of 2X6es. Keep up the good work.
