Description
Building a door that will last for years and be used proudly every day requires knowledge and experience. This comprehensive guide covers the fundamentals of good design and proper construction technique, as well as the pros and cons of common materials and finishes. The book starts by addressing the basics, including interior and exterior doors, hardware, and hanging techniques. It then offers project chapters that walk the reader step-by-step through the construction of eight essential doors, explaining design and material choices in specific contexts. For beginners, the first four projects are easily accessible, while the remaining projects offer more challenging details for intermediate woodworkers. With its unique blend of guidance and inspiration, this book is a valuable resource for woodworking hobbyists, professional craftsmen, and DIY homeowners.
