making a door

[kmdwoodwork]

The door is looking good. That is one sweet table saw that you have there, seems to be quite powerful and i would love to have the pull feature for the blade.

Thanks. The version I have the saw is the 110v so you get a 1800 watt motor but if you get 240 you get 2250 watts but it does seem to have plenty of power and is accurate beyond believe festool has its own version I imagine it to be just as good

I wonder how well that joint will stand the test of time down the middle. It will tend to open up with it being softwood

 

[wrightwoodwork]

The plan is to glue and dowel the centre joint the boards will be getting a couple of coats of base coat before been fixed and once fixed will get another 2 coats of top coat, so the outside face will have 4 coats.  The roof overhangs 500mm and protects the walls from a lot of direct rain. Also the door is being made right where it is going to be used so the moisture content shouldn't be to different and should be in equilibrium with its surroundings in service , but will have to see over time

Here's the vid of the boards being cut to size and test fitted

The door looks nice.  Thanks for posting these videos. 

You should get an OF2200 for the grooves...

Not a problem posting the videos a larger router is something planed for the future I used to have the makita but sold it I've picked up the of2200 in the past and found it slightly top heavy but it might be better in use and feel more comfortable. I have picked up the mafell lo65 and liked the balance better but the price is a bit more than I want to pay. So many choices  Evan might just get the Dewalt to put me on if forced to
