Hi all I'm building some doors for my garage ledge braced & framed. I'm planning butt jointing/doweling all the framework together, I know a lot people mortise and tenon them but it's only a garage door it doesn't need to be anything special. Will dowels and glue be strong enough & do the job ...
Hi @BucksDad Ive had a good read through your post, I see you're a man that likes things done properly !
Here's just a few ideas that could help cut the costs ( I am a bit of a penny pincher lol )
So first off you could go for 3x2 frame work save a lot of money there, plenty strong enough...
That's so expensive ! Built my shed a year back, 12' X 8' , 4x2 frame work with 4 foot spacing, 6x1 gravel boards overlap cladding, 11mm OBS roof & felt . Got the timber cheap from a dodgy wood man , less than £500 total, pretty happy with it

£400 factory return with 1 year manufacturer warranty . + £40 off with the token. £360 that's looks like a good deal to me !
