I will soon be making a front door for someone - to suit a Victorian house (in Brockley, but that's fairly irellevant). It will be painted, but one question is, what is the ideal moisture content prior to priming. I'm a bit wary on this as it has one side central heating etc, the other the best that our weather can throw at it. It happens to be south west facing by the way. I am guessing if anything a tiny bit of shrinkage is better than any swelling, and I do want a nice close fit.
Wood choice is likely to be hemlock or Douglas fir... any recommendations welcome also.
