I think there's something super rewarding about taking some rough lumber with twists and bows in it and milling it to parts. Great video. Doors look great.
Dang man...phenomenal doors! Currently designing some french doors that goes into our living room to separate the dining room. I have no clue how I am going to do it yet but my excuse will be that John inspired me so if they turn out crappy...well honey...go complain to John!
Love the doors man. They look so sick and fit the look of what you think the Malecki shop should look like. Bad ass build and really entertaining and informative video to watch!
John, First, beautiful project. The finish is impeccable. Second, PINEAPPLE? I seriously just about dropped my breakfast at that line! Thanks for the entertainment, and the inspiration for all of our own builds!
Pineapple lemonade is pretty good, they’ve had it at Weinerschnitzel for a couple years now….. but now they also have coconut lemonade, so if you order half coconut lemonade and half pineapple lemonade it tastes like Piña Colada Lemonade….. great, now I have to go to weinerschnitzel! Oh and, great video…. Even though I now have to go hit a drive through a fifteen minute drive away just for lemonade….
Wow, Awesome doors! Gives me inspiration for my future barn style home. Your content is great. I love the attitude and wit. The fact that you don’t shy away from being yourself and stay away from producing content that is too formal is one of the reasons I subscribe. Can’t wait to see what else you have in store for 2019. God Bless!
Hey johnny, doors look awesome. The wood is beautiful, just a clear varnish was definitely the right choice. The shop is frigging huge dude! Best of luck & keep punchin' lol
@@John_Malecki A bit more precise feedback: The music didn't get in the way at all until you were talking about the finish. From the 11-12 min mark. Quality build man, rock on!
Awesome video! Great editing. Your channel is getting better and better. It was hard for me to follow the part about getting the twist out, without more speaking.
Mixing Festool and lowly home store brand tools in the same video? BLASPHEMY!!! :P In all seriousness now, those are some nice doors...wife wants me to make her a set!
Great Jobs, doors came out nice, and doors can be a pain to build. I don’t ever comment on safety but man pushing that board through the jointer at 3:07 from the back. OUCH!!! I am guilty of not using push sticks but a finger hanging over the edge of a board and that’s all it takes.
At the 7.5 and 11.5-ish min marks, it's hard to hear what you are saying over the music. But overall, killer build. Those doors look sweet, what are you going to use for hardware? Maybe something out of rebar for an industrial look? The shop is really coming together nicely.
Those doors came out fantastic. Never saw that trick with the heat gun on the epoxy. Has that ever caused any issues for you? Looks to be a much faster way to level it.
Did that door stile bow after running it over the jointer and final dimensioning?, or did it sneak through the process that way? One way to help avoid tension issues, if this was such, is to remove wood evenly from both sides during dimensioning to help alleviate the problem and maintain equilibrium. Sweet wood, came out beautiful, nice work.
Do you use cheap disposable brushes for spreading the glue or do you have a good way of cleaning them after use? Awesome vids, always looking forward to the next one 🤘🏻
Awesome video as always! Two stupid questions. 1. Are there any potential issues for wood movement between the rails and styles between those dominos? And 2. It seems as though you glossed over the glass install? Any tips on how to do that/secure it? Again. Love your vids as always, thanks mate!
The wood movement is across the grain and it shouldnt affect the dominos. The glass i simply cut the rabbet joint after I make the door rough assembly, then trim it out and hold it in with some brad nails!
Hey man Thanks for the response. I know I clowned you over the Festool tools but you do run a shop so if it makes it more efficient the you gotta go for it.
Hey John! (Nice name by the way.) Love your projects, but please add more full frame beauty shots at the end of your videos so we can enjoy your completed work. It ain't showin' off if the work is that good! Thanks for the videos.
Yea we have some photos on the blog! People almost always click off when it comes to those parts at the end. so we try and keep the video about the build. i'll see what i can do in the future
Omg..you are hilarious...I listen to your videos with my headphones on..so when I laugh out loud my kids think I'm insane lol...and you do great work! I really like the intro music, is it stock?
we're always working to get better. We actually even adjusted that before posting, we're working on dialing in the audio. seems to be an issue still but thank you for the honest opinion !
Love the doors, John! I'm planning something similar to divide two conference rooms in a commercial office building, but I'll be using local woods (red oak and hackmatack) from a nearby mill here in Maine. Such doors can be heavy - I'm curious to know what you used for hardware (hinges) to hang the doors. Thanks for the video!
Very cool sir. Question regarding the epoxy resin...after it cured you were scraping off the excess with a heat gun and a chisel. Is this a personal preference or is there an issue with just sanding or jointing it flush? Appreciate the learning opportunity and thanks for the great videos.
Thinking about making my own shop doors. Will certainly be referencing this vid if I do. Question. I see lots of guys on youtube rough cutting to length using a jig saw rather than at the miter saw. Why is that? Material savings would be negligable i think. So why?
Around 2:00, are you crosscutting and ripping with jigsaw/bandsaw to save on blade kerf, or is there some other reason? I ask particularly about crosscutting with the jigsaw, as it seems like it would be easier to do and get square cuts with a miter saw
im just roughing everything to size to make the pieces more manageable ont he bigger machines. i wouldnt use the bandsaw or jigsaw for squaring because of the blade flex
Hey John I noticed you using armor brand work bench. Have you had any experience with there pocket hole jig? If yes how would you compare it to kreg jig? Any preference? Pros & cons Thx Keep up the great content.
Couldn't help but notice the tops didn't align. I had a similar situation for a pair of closet doors. Is it simply the wood "moving" after milling (as you mentioned in regards to that wonky stile)?
did you have any trouble with the epoxy dying the wood around where you filled? I've had a lot of trouble with this problem and not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've been using system three epoxy and a liquid dye and had this happen on red oak and maple. I fill it and then take the excess off and basically wherever the excess spilled over to the wood was dyed there.
