[QUOTE="Shoot Summ, post: 1388024, member: 1055"] So I finished the front porch and needed a new project. I have about 350 board feet of 1/4 sawn white oak that has been air drying for almost 2 years courtesy of the ice storm 2007 and decided it is time to start using some of it. We have been looking for a new front door and I couldn't find anything I liked in my price range so,,,,,I decided to build my own. I'm still fitting the mortise and tenons for a nice tight fit, and still need to glue up the panels for the raised panels, and order the fluted glass. I also have some decent sized scraps that I plan to do some ballistic testing on to see what a 1 3/4" oak door will stand up to. I have the mortise and tenons close enough that I could mock up the frame: [attach=full]83300[/attach] All of the pieces laid out: [attach=full]83301[/attach] The mortise and tenon work, rough in by machine and finish out by hand: [attach=full]83302[/attach] [/QUOTE]
