As I say, it's a sliding door on rails, so not like a standard door as such. Like this So to me, width expansion or contraction isn't much of an issue. Just don't want it to bow....much.

Those are amazing 👌

Speak to Mike at Outpost Workshops. I bought my branding stamp from him but I believe he does stampy stamp stamps too. Outpost Workshops

The framework is actually all quarter-sawn. Beautiful timber with lovely rays.

Thanks Peter. Yes I think humidity is the thing rather than temperature. It's a framed, ledged and braced door. However, it's a sliding door, hung on a rail, not something contained by hinges and a traditional frame, so I guess it may not be such an issue. It's a typically difficult scenario...

Yeah, can't do that really. The workshop is basically an uninsulated industrial type building. I use an infra-red heater and layer up myself and keep moving to keep myself from dying of hypothermia but it never really warms the building this time of year, never mind the timber. I go home at...

My workshop is freezing cold. I mean one day last winter I checked the temperature in there, then I checked it inside the fridge. The fridge was very slightly warmer... Depending on what you're making, or more so what you're making it with, this can be a concern or not much of a worry. I've...

Been paying over £90 a sheet for birch ply lately. 😭

They're just so you can get a purchase on stuff like crayons or paint brushes or whatever other small stuff gets shoved in the tray 😊

Toy box in Oak, paint 'n' ply

😂 I did say they needed to throw away most of their shoes so as not to spoil the clean look!

There are so many North American YouTubers that do this sort of stuff ALL of the time. They should hold some responsibility over what they advocate but of course don't. It's not just North Americans to be fair. Every time I see Laura Kampf ripping some timber without crown guards or riving...

A shoe storage facility in birch ply and Formica.

Made a couple of pin boards for a cat lover. I'm a dog guy myself..

That's so cool. Amazing work 😍

Wow. That looks amazing 😊👌

Thanks. Yes the back panel is painted in some Dulux colour, Bakers Flour I think. Used my HVLP gun for that. The little circle on the plinth is a disc of Oak with my makers logo branded into it. That's not a great image. It was cleaned up a bit from that so is crisper.

They're just biscuited and then screwed from the outside faces. None of that is seen so it works well. Here's the bendy mdf on the former. The doors were made up of 3 layers. Full album of making images Here on Flickr

Thanks a lot. Yeah it was a bit of a head scratcher at the time. Essentially quite straightforward but you know, not, if you see what I mean 😅 Hate to get all social meeja on you, but there's a few shots of the making of the table amongst my Instagram if you fancied a look. Instagram Insta...

The bendy mdf is basically kerfed 6mm mdf. I just used 3 layers with all kerfs facing inwards, so no backing sheet as such. The Oak in the finger pulls is actually a bit of a cheat. I cut the pull shape, then used 2-pack filler to fill the voids of the kerfs in the mdf, then cut it again, then...
