My New Shop: Cutting & Plugging a Plastpro Fiberglass Door

[@Amejane]

I didn't have the awesome router jig (or a router) but this video did give me the confidence that we could shorten a stock door to fit our short basement walkout. Used a clamp on straight edge and circular saw with carbide blade to rim the door. Made a new insert for the sweep to mount to and perfectly fitting door. THANK YOU!

I've seen those clamps at the shop before but have never seen them in use! Thanks, they're going in my to buy list :D

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Great video. Just what I was looking for. What kind of door shoe did you use? Was it one that "cups" both sides of the door? This will be one of my springtime projects to fix the previous owners failure to realize that their new hardwood floors were going to be higher than the threshold...😠

[@JJM2222]

Why did you eliminate the channels for door sweep???

[@dav1099]

Nice video, I just did one the hard way the other day, the so called carpenter told the home owner ahh ya don't need a wood filler in there that foam is tough and will last forever. 8-( of course the weather strip needs something tough enough to fasten to. I hope some day to own some featool stuff. 5*****

[@friendphil]

Why even do this if the bottom of the door will have a door shoe?

[@tkrasick]

i prefer a torch and a metal coat hanger, its cheaper

[@myhealthtoo]

Nice video but Is it easier to cut metal or fiberglass door ?

[@LubaLuba1]

dude why don't u show how u cut the door for love of God!!

[@AndresLopizesuno]

I used a oscillating tool with metal saw adpter moon shape

[@samuraiXMan]

He used the Festool saw and guide rail, mentioned at 5:00. It leaves a finished edge on both sides.

[@LubaLuba1]

ok can you at least suggest typ of blade I can use to cut metal door ??

[@LubaLuba1]

which stand alone wood burning stove you got??

[@LubaLuba1]

is it easier or cut metal or fiberglass door? also should I use a knife to cut or a circular saw.

[@oldironsfury]

Circular saw With carbide blade Use some painters tape on both doors for the cut Helps prevent chipping in paint on metal door as well as fiberglass

[@LubaLuba1]

but why put visible screws on bottom that looks terrible!

This isn’t carpentry this is a Festool ad and I’m yet to see anything festool worth the price and before y’all call me a broke bitch nah son everything paid cash BY MYSELF house land and rental properties rec toys etc ect I just don’t see the value in festool for those who don’t believe me watch product farms best drill the festool is just overpriced junk!
