SWSkier, beautiful stuff. What's up with the hinges on the mid century door? Besides the strange placement, it looks like the door is proud of the jamb?
The panels on my folks door are steel, rusted with acid and sealed.
Root- all our entry doors are European style. They have a rabbet edge on the interior that holds a gasket that then overlays the jamb. This allows a seal on all 4 sides of the door in addition to traditional door stop on the exterior. The hinges are bored into the overlay rabbet. The trim is integrated part of the jamb itself. The hinges allow adjustment of reveal and gasket compression by threading them in or out if the door and jamb. We source out gasket and hardware from Germany.
Here are some pics of my front door, maybe better show how they work.

Very nice :)
Very nice Bushman! But man, if you think it's hard to get you buddies to leave now...
Very nice.... I teared up.
_-_Proper.
Very cool. We need a pic of you with the working hat on though.
Nice work Bushman, way to rep the Willie Gear Sticker on the Kegerator.
^^Thought you might like that.
Rebuilt my deck, took everything down to the joists and posts. Yes the neighbors house really is that close, gotta love high density residential living.

stain and/or sealer to come this fall, gets full sun so not totally sure what route I'll go.
^nice! ... Are those lights on the post caps? ... extra points for the mounted bottle opener (just need a cap catcher)
Love this kitchen. It could use some red paint and pounded copper sink basins, but hey, what do I know?Quote:

pantry
http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3734/9...97f9335bab.jpg
that's a serious pantry! How do you like having it separate? Why bother with the doors when its in a separate room?
Not my pantry, just one I built for some clients with good taste and deep pockets. There really aren't any upper cabinets in the kitchen proper, so all the plates and stuff are stored in this pantry and the doors keep them from getting dusty - plus it looks sweet! From my end, it amounted to more labor which amounted to more $$$ in my pocket:biggrin:Quote:

Only problem, what's with the blue baseboard? ;)
Yep, made the cabinets. Pretty much all 3/4 birch ply and poplar frames. Wish I used pocket screws back then, what a pain biscuits were.Quote:

Shows you what I know, I never knew it was in style, thought it was painters tape :) ..... Everything else looks awesome.
Been a progressive summer here:

That is cool.
Did you drill right into the the studs?
I wouldn't think the drywall would hold up the weight of stocked shelves.
