Building A Door From Incredibly Rare Wood 

“Mitch’s Bucket List” 1.Brad notices me ✅ 2.Snake my way into a video ✅ 3.Meet Brad in person ☑️ Canada Here I Come! Great video as always. Canada here I come!!!

One word. "Insane".

the amount of quality wood going into this cabin is insane

Very nice work. I’ve been a woodworker for the past 34 years and still doing it. I’m impressed with all the younger guys you have working for you. That’s great!

Here in Brazil, we have been planting and growing tree species that were almost cut to extinction hundreds of years ago. In some decades, we will be able to legally cut some trees that were no longer available.

I'm a drummer, and one of the most amazing, special, rare, exotic and sought-after drum sets ever created was by the German company Sonor, which made a Signature series Bubinga drumset. So I've always been aware of (and in awe of) bubinga.

What an amazing door! And the attention to detail with the install is incredible. The jokers who put my solid sapele front door in ruined it and they actually had to rebuild the entire door! Incredible.

I can't imagine skipping to the end to see the finished project. The process to get to the money finish is priceless.

WOW love the dovetail detail.

So, I recently installed a huge American White Oak door, and new AWO door jamb (had to widen the house frame, cut some of the floor and carpet, smash out the old concrete door sill, and cut the plaster on 2 sides to make it fit) for a client and it took 2 full days, working by myself.. and that was after 2 days of applying the finish to the timbers.. I thought that was too long, but I feel better after watching 4 people work in this door for 2 days.. 😁 A beautiful door indeed, as is the mantle.. nice work guys 👍

Love exposed dovetails stunning and such a rare wood deserves great joinery.

Crazy door. I hope no one ever replaces it, because they don't like the look. Nice job also with that multi point lock install... Really like these longer videos that show all the processes/struggles and especially cheeky commentary

As a person who has installed many doors....that is just one of the best I have ever seen. The job is worth a lot of $$,$$$.00

That is the kind of thing I would spend a little on as well if I had that kinda money, real quality work and finishings.

Beautiful door and the skill to figure out about how to install a door with log cabin being ur pain in the neck was awesome. U are true craftsmen in ur trade. Great job.

This is probably the most beautiful wood I’ve seen !! You guys are the best🤗

Thanks to Bubinga to be the star of this film ^^ Really nice door!

That wood is absolutely STUNNING. Amazing door!

Wow. When the door was being made, I was thinking this house better look sweet too. From what we saw, it was! Fantastic all around.

Absolutely stunning!!! You alls work ethic is second to none!!! All of this woodwork is outstanding!!!

WOW. This isn't a door, it's a piece of art! I wanted to say so much more, but I am virtually speechless. Brad is an amazing Master Craftsman. Full credit to the customer wanting this level of detail and beauty. Mike 🇦🇺

I love seeing yalls beautiful joinery being on display! My new goal in life is to have something custom built by your company.

That door is absolutely beautiful. The grain and quality of the wood is top notch. It is good to see the struggles with the door in a log home. Thanks for sharing this was a great video. 👍🏻

Babinga is an amazing wood - love the deep red color and grain. I really like the exposed joinery. It shows of the exceptional fit and finish of your design and workmanship.

I found myself on the edge of my seat after I watched the assembly of this door in your shop. Gorgeous. The Babinga mantle is proof of BFWC's artistry. Niesamowite, Lezek.

As always.. I'm in AWE at the level of professionalism you guys put into your work, Well done everyone involved (y)👍

Of course I watched the entire video. Great work.

This has to be one of the most stunning builds that I have ever seen. You have done some magnificent work in the past as I have stated before BFWC crew just amazes me every time with each video. Cannot wait to see what is next. Craftsmen who are afraid to show how things are put together when requested normally don't know what they are doing. Stay safe!

Freaking Beautiful. Wow guys. I'm sure the client is amazed. The Grain is nothing I've ever seen. Congratulations for stockpiling it.

Loved this ‘documentary’ from the beginning to the end. You guys are wood masters.

Thanks for touching on the finish aspect! I’ve been back and forth and settled on the osmo outdoor oil, thanks for the confirmation :) starting a massive front door unit now

Rare wood and Rare look. Just Love the woody feeling.

What an absolutely fantastic video!!! The knowledge, professionalism, and commitment shown by you and the team are outstanding. Thanks for showing us how true craftsmen carry a job through to completion. The bubinga (sp???) looks great. Keep up the good work.

What a beautiful door and mantle, the wood is stunning. Y'all are such artists, in the design, and joinery. So fascinating to see it all come together , just gorgeous.

That door is gorgeous! I can't believe such a beautiful wood piece was sitting in your shop for that long!

It's such stunning STUNNING wood. Love ❤ it!! This piece is in good hands, you guys are true artisans 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Beautiful door as always. Baubinga is a beautiful wood. Thanks for sharing ❤

A complete tour-de-force of *doing things right!* Amazing job of class, quality, precision for a prestige customer with diligent teamwork. This must have been how they built things in the Golden Age, like the Biltmore House - these guys can still do it - and make an excellent video at the same time. Thank You All.

It's a beautiful door. You've proved my experience of fitting dozens of doors, they'll either fly in or fight you every step of the way. Great job guys.

Wow! Thumbs Up on the construction of that door.

By the way your craftsman ship on the door itself is 2nd to none absolutely stunning!

Stunning craftsmanship!

Oh my! You guys make such beautiful things! That door is as much art as door.

Beautiful work guys!

Absolutely breathtaking work gents, outstanding as always!

I was waiting for you to mention the incredible (nice) smell when you work with Bubinga. It’s one of my favourite things about the wood. They were truly stunning pieces you were using there as well.

Excellent all the way around!! Y’all rock!!

Looks great. The joinery on the mantle was also a very nice touch.

Incredible workmanship

The bevels on the dovetails look absolutely mint. They make them pop since they're not made from contrasting woods.

You guys do amazing work. That unit is absolutely gorgeous.

Super job of installing!! You earned your bucks on that one!!!

What a journey, thanks for sharing!

I think that all the superlatives have already been provided in the comments, deservidly so - and I too applaud your team's efforts, Dylan. A great wood, a fantastic looking door, frame and mantle. I'd like to especially give praise to your dad, Brad, for his patience in leaving the Bubinga all those years until the right moment came along👏. And, for his perseverance in still tackling those difficult door fitting challenges after all these years in the profession, instead of leaving it to the young bucks whilst he drinks a decent beer in front of a warm fire, whilst you guys freeze!!!! Despite the technical challenges (pain) shown in this video he still had a beaming smile on his face about a job well done.👍

STUNNING RESULTS!!!! 🥰

Absolutely gorgeous wood and phenomenal craftsmanship!

Absolutely gorgeous wood and the team make a superb door. Beautiful.

Your work is amazing. New subscriber from McCalla Alabama 💖🇺🇸

Wow, beautiful door!

Insane! Such an awesome door! Good work team.

Beautiful Beautiful work Guy's.

Awesome job guys, this is truly beautiful work.

Beautiful, great job!

Wow! Beautiful work gentleman, amazing wood for what looks to be an amazing home.

Looks great, thanks for showing us.

That whole set turned out amazing guys! The door itself looks wonderful. Love the figure in the wood. As always road to 1M+ :)

The grain on this wood is quite simply stunning as is the door, not only that but to basically work with wood which you will probably only work with once in a lifetime must've been incredible. I don't know how many times you measured and then measured again and again and again ... then again ... to make sure you didn't make a mistake ... fantastic 👍

Love this! Super glad I have a huge slab of waterfall bubinga stored away. This stuff is getting harder to find as times goes.

Wow love that door great quality workmanship there, and the mantel piece to boot excellent job really enjoyed this video Thanks guys

That is a beautiful door!!!

That door looks incredible

Stunning.

Beautiful precision work.

What can I say it's a masterpiece. Well done and keep it up

Gorgeous door! Both the door and the install were done by master craftsmen! As the door swung smoothly shut with the sound of the soft click of the latch.. that right there tells you all you need to know about the pro’s that installed it.

Wow just WOW so beautiful 😍

Black Forrest Wood Co et al~ you guys need to look into getting removalist lifting straps, it'd make it so much easier and safer to move heavy arkward loads

Now that's an awesome looking door, well done gentlemen.

That's such gorgeous wood and ya'll do great work.

Gorgeous.

Just stunning it really is a beautiful wood

The Bubinga is exquisite!

I have had a piece of Bubinga for over 15 years also. It is figured and I also have been holding it for that special project. At 77 I better hurry up!!!

Beautiful job on a beautiful house. Congrats

Wow! incredible and impressive!

It's a magical piece of art! Hats down to craftsmen... If it would be easy, everyone could do it

this door in possibly the most bear-proof door I've seen.... I love it !

Wow, great job.

Great job and really nice looking door.

It’s a beautiful door. Great work

Very nice job they are so lucky 😊👏

Beautiful door 🚪 😍

Had a buddy build a box tube and recycled slider glass greenhouse. He put the whole thing together with that double sided tape. He put some retainer clips on afterwards for storm insurance, but he was depending on the tape and glass for oceanfront stiffness. It was creepy quiet inside. It was still there the 15 years later.
