A couple 4 panelled white veneer wood grain fire doors + gym workout the last couple days. Not a huge fan of the work, mostly due to the amount involved, with the van nearly empty of Tools (and yes including this one before anyone pipes up ๐)
Along with the calluses created with the arris edges picking up the 30kg load. ๐
It always makes it more challenging getting the margins around the perimeter right, working with a frame possibly twice my age, and even more wonky!
I thought the dado rail might catch the intumescent strip too much and make it difficult for the closer to operate. It didnโt. ๐๐ป๐๐ป. Bo ya!
The other 4-5 fire doors will come at later dates.
Onto some repair and restoration work next! TBC.
Have a great week all ๐ค๐ป๐

Those jobs you believe to be straight forward, donโt always turn out to be that way. I have to admit that this did test me in a few ways. However and regardless of a couple minor setbacks (not involving COVID for once) I have fully enjoyed every process.
Using the new and the tenso P-14 clips to fit the carcass, American white oak door and shelf together.
The customers were really happy and complimented the work so that makes me ecstatic โบ๏ธ๐ช๐ป๐๐ป

A small picket gate, fence and post section to stop Willow eating anything further at the back of the garden where Her Mum and Dad canโt see.
Sheโs grown since I Last saw her (photo of her about 4 weeks ago, didnโt get another unfortunately) So we decided to take the height upto 1.2m instead of 900mm.
Sheโs still full of flurry adorable cuteness โบ๏ธ

Took a re visit back To see the fished oak glazed and panelled Suffolk doors. Heโs done an awesome job of varnishing with a Ronseal Matt coat varnish.
Dave had asked my opinion on colour options and I suggested maybe painting the Architrave and skirting in white (or a colour of your choice) which will really enhance the colour and overall stand out of the oak doors. Which I can see heโs started the primer/undercoat already. ๐๐ป
Also fitted a blind to one of the bedroom doors for him. Couldnโt say no. ๐
A satisfied, happy, customer.
Thank you for the work Sir Dave. It was a pleasure. ๐
