These are going in my doors! GIANT raised panels 

Tip for next time: pre-finish those panels before assembly. You'll be fighting unfinished sections showing as the humidity changes.

Rich, nice job. Tip, when using the 3/4 black water pipe clamp insert a 1 inch plastic water pipe as a spacer. It will keep the wood raised above the pipe so you won’t have to deal with the black stain on the wood. Sometimes that black stain will go deep in the wood since it acts like a stain. The spacer can be what ever width you want. Regards

With the amount of doors your seem to be setting up to do you’d be doing yourself a huge favor to get shaper bits for the profiles and groover for the stiles and rails.

Layout the raised panel profile on the edge of the set up piece . Remove the bulk with stack dados remove as much as possible up to your profile lines

This one was alotta fun to watch and I’m glad it all worked perfectly. Thanks for bringing us along Richard!

If you're having issues with the clamps not keeping your piece flat, try putting additional clamps on the opposite side to balance the squeeze.

Love your excitement, It's funny to me to see a craftsman of your level be so excited about something that barley challenged you. Great video.

love. And I could feel the excitement during the dry fit!

Richard. With the weight of the door you will need to hang the door as you would an exterior door i.e. two screws of the top and middle hinge must enter into the rough framing to assure to sag. If you don't the weight will pull the hinges and loosen 5/8-1 " screws.-

Dont die. I want to continue to see your content!!!

Man, I very rarely comment on a video but you are doing such nice work that I just had to leave you one. It’s so fun to watch your videos and see your progress. Keep up the high quality and attention to detail! I have a disability that makes my time in my workshop a challenge but when I watch one of your videos, I just get so inspired to get out there and start something! Thank you so much for making a high quality and inspirational RU-vid channel!

This gave me PTSD! I just finished making nine 8 panel doors😅 5 passes on each edge to get to the final depth of cut. Roughly 2,800 passes on the shaper

So satisfying when you put it all together. Great work and your excitement is infectious.

Hi Richard, have you ever tried card scrapers for removing glue I think you might find the finish afterwards is much nicer than almost anything else. just my 2 pence worth.

Clever fence trick! So quick and easy.

Can't wait to see the He-Man hinges you're going to use.

If you run across an old Stanley #80 scraper plane locally at some point, pick it up and use it to scrape the joints on panel glue ups. It makes it so easy to remove exactly the right amount of material to even the joint and clear the glue. All part of keeping horrible horrible sanding to a minimum.

Might to to have 4 hinges on that beast! Gorgeous door.

Excellent beautiful solid oak door😮😮😮😮

My man has officially made the transition from carpenter to craftsman

The video and craftsmanship is excellent but your excitement once you dry fit it was priceless.

Very nice! Your excitement is contagious!

Richard, great work. Seeing the M18 Rocket light makes me want to come down there and install some beautiful RAB 'GUS' LED wraparound light fixtures so you guys have the lighting you need to continue to do the work you do. The door looks amazing.

Hearing the excitement in your voice got me excited! This is awesome work!

Hell yeah Richard!!

Best bar clamps ( tried them all) is Rocklers based on the working height of the stand of the clamp! Chk it out! Don’t invest in a bunch of big clamps just buy the bar clamp and hv 2,3,4,5,6,8 foot pieces of quality 3/4” pipe ! Most money I ever saved!

You’ve got a spindle moulder on your saw table, why don’t you use that to do your raised panels?

Wow wow wow. All the machinery you got from Italy was worth it. Amazing job!

Finally some real doors vs paper ones👏🏻🤠🇫🇮

That door is kick azz!

Really need to get that shaper cutter

A goose drowner? I love it!

Nice job on that door

Watching you get so excited gets me psyched up to get back on my project. Looks incredible broseph!

That's for your BATHROOM? Man, you must REALLY value your privacy!!! 😄

I'm surprised that Brent Hull didn't talk you into using stave block core for your styles and rails. I never use solid stock for mine. Always ends up being a problem down the road. Love your channel - best of luck.

Congrats! So happy for your success!

Nice work mate! Moving more and more into joinery. It’s so satisfying when these things come together. Heads up with oak - be carful how long the material is in contact with metal - bar clamps etc, it will stain. Try some wax paper over you bar clamps when assembling.

Unlike a typical hollow core door this thick bathroom door should hold up to your gas pressure very well. 😂

For scraping glue squeeze out try a pull type paint scraper. Don't use your expensive chisel. A softwood core would have been cheaper to make, lighter and stable.

Monumental work. You were joking about how those little screws and hinges hold the weight of the door. Maybe, …. And with a biometric lock, the bathroom could serve as a safe room.

Nice work Richard! You are amazing.

It's nice to see you doing some actual, quality woodwork for a change 💁‍♂ Love it man, keep up the good work my friend 💪

What kind of a door hinge is this going to require? LOL. I'm guessing 4" GRK structural screws will be absolutely required.

Great job! I love seeing workmen taking pride in a quality work product. This used to be the standard which now, sadly, has gone the way of the Dodo.

Love the channel and this project. One thought though is the weight. Your little one might get a nasty finger injury, I would consider some sort of soft close mechanism. In the hinge or with a door closer.

That Sommerfeld router table is awesome. I have the same one

Gorgeous, so far I love it without the trim, very clean, that is such a beautiful door, I would consider invisible hinges, keeping that high end clean look.

Great job

WOW man that looks awesome. Great work. I was really amazed that everything was still flush, it just seemed like the panels would end up higher than they really are. Nice.

Looks so awesome! 👍

Great job young man! I didnt know you had Ringo Star working with you. Cheers, William.

Bar clamp tip: Once you have your clamping width set, put some blue painter's tape along the section of the bar that will be in contact with the wood...prevents the black staining when the glue hits it.

When gluing panels into slabs, study grain and situate the grain in such a design to look like one huge tree without seams.

Love the enthusiasm I get it. Just like thee first project completed

GLORIOUS

Get yourself a dedicated shaper. You’ll thank yourself later. We run all the way up to 5 1/5” custom profiling heads.

you make me chuckle! Thanks for sharing and keep rockin it

You machine has an excellent shaper..... why would you default to a router bit????

That door looks beautiful

That is a beautiful door. Love your videos and keep up the great work.

I like the Freud and cmt router bits And whites

4:36 Look at that, tools making tools 🤣 I alter my tools all the time

I think I would have used biscuits on the joints. They provide a big addition to overall joint strength and stability. Also, be careful to never overtighten clamps. especially pipe clams. You can squeeze the glue out of the joint. This can lead to premature joint failure over time. With Oak, you get a little forgiveness because of the deep grain structure, but on a wood like cherry, it could hurt.

Beautiful turnout 🤘

That’s some really thick panels, “looks” thicker than the door frame. I would cut rabbets on 4 edges before cutting profile just to relieve some stress from that router but. 1 question. Why not use the shaper in your combo machine? You can run multiple pieces clamped together.

Dude your an inspiration to us that want to be a craftsman .

Very nice job Ricardo, keep up the talented work.

Nicely done

Dude good job

Hi from Thailand

Great job !! I use my my Shaper on the thicker doors though but great job 😀

I’ve seen in so many other videos that people recommend stave-core construction or some other form of laminated construction. Yours are solid stile and rail construction. How have the doors maintained their flatness?

Great-looking door Richard.

Nice work on the door. Hit our place like that the other night. Pretty close to where you are. We heard the ft. worth sirens going off.

Great work….You’ve come along way from MDF moldings.

LOL that's a four hinge door !!

Those four cutter Freud bits are really great. Pricy but wonderful finish. Rather than a pencil line you should use a clamp for a positive stop thereby ensuring exact dimensions of your final product on all four sides. You should definitely pre finish/seal the grooves and panel edges as well as the face of each panel so you don’t get witnesses marks when the wood shrinks down the road. It also serves to control and slow down absorption of humidity and water vapor. I would recommend dewaxed shellac as it’s the best thing you can use to slow water vapor. Finally the worst thing you could do is leave the garage doors open during the rain.

Good job, but next time, you need to get a shaper for the raised panel.

why wouldn't you use the shaper on your scm? this is literally what shapers are made for

That looks incredible man 👏🏼

Good content. 👍

WoW!!! Richard great job continu man

Cutting that router bit probably would of went a lot easier, or may not have even been needed, if you tried unscrewing the bearing first.

Fantastic build !!!!

I was about to say that tornadoes in TX are as common as Philly & Delaware drivers doing 5 mph under the speed limit in left hand fast lane on our Jersey Interstates!!! I was also about to say that you guys could all take cover under that door & come out unscathed!! Hoping all is well guys, Dirty Jersey out!!

Amazing work

Not gonna lie, my eyes widened like dinner plates when you were hammering with the wrench around the cutters of that router bit

Cook to watch you become a master craftsman.

Looks like you have a shaper on that multi sliding saw. Pick up a freeborn cutter and you'll not look at that router set up again.

Awesome

Hi Richard, Place a piece of wax paper on your pipe at each glue joint and you won't leave those black marks on the work piece. They're a pain to sand out.

Raised panel bit usually have a removable bearing.

That's sweet profile thick ! Like to do wall panel with that.🤠

Looks so good, nice job!

Orsome that's the why to butcher a router if it works fantastic do what you gotta do ❤❤ Well done boys

Bessey clamps are the snizzle.

Stunning

Thickest, heaviest, tornado proof bathroom door ever! 😅Awesome job!

Who makes that 3 in 1 machine you’ve been working on?
