Aren't power tools fun. The possibility of personal injury adds a bit excitement to the job...lol, Perfect latch for the project.

[@Buckswoodshop]

+Rusty “rustyglovebox” Glovebox Thank you

[@EdOfTheNorth]

Slick. I like to put a dowel or screw in the 2x4 between the double block so that the 2x4 stays fixed to one side of the door and doesn't get lost or used for another project accidently. LOL. This necessitates a much shorter 2x4.

[@Buckswoodshop]

+EdOfTheNorth Cool!

[@ClassicCarOverhaul]

[@Buckswoodshop]

+Cheator40 I like this wood because it very straight and it cheaper than pine.

Looks good and dangerous... I dislike making dado cuts... scares the crap out of me

[@thoughtfulace]

[@Buckswoodshop]

Slide the board to one side and then walk out. You cannot enter from the outside.
