Thanks John, Just work out what materials you need and price it plus soome markup to cover organising, fetching and any problems dealing with that side of things you may encounter, then your best guess on timescales plus profit..

[@ItalianRestoration]

Another great video. Have used the backstop on a router to stop that ripple effect and makes everything much smoother. I wanted to know, when you put the door through the planner to put the 3 degree bevel on the leading edge of the door, how did you stop the planer digging in at the beginning and the end of the door - the only solution I've found is to to have a longer piece but of course that means more wastage.

[@BradshawJoinery]

The planer shouldn't dig in much if atall, maybe your beds need a small tweak but I do understand it's more likely with a door than a piece of wood as the extra weight. If someone is helping make sure they aren't lifting the other end too high and causing trouble. I always belt sand the edges after so if there is a little bump blend it with that. I never take it to a fresh edge always setup so the Bevel stops 5mm from the door face.

[@ItalianRestoration]

Hi, I could tell from the sound your chisels made that they were very sharp, could you please let me know the process you take to sharpen your chisels and the make and model of the chisels

[@BradshawJoinery]

Hi John i have a video from early on in my channel about the process, not the best video but its all in there. Cheap diamond stone and a method of grinding a rough bevel is all that needed.

[@Coleen_West]

Molding is perfect! -- QUESTION -- Sorry to question so much, but could you take historic moldings and have a new cutter made (like you did here) and "recut" a historic trim piece to remove many layers of paint (probably painted five times over the years) and get it down to bare wood so we can spray paint it? Is that ever done or do you just use new wood and start fresh?

[@BradshawJoinery]

could be done but would be tricky to machine accurately as the paint will be uneven. Use Peelaway or heatgun to strip the paint!

[@Coleen_West]

@@BradshawJoinery ,,,fair enough. I think tha tthat is the approach. No "quick and easy" solution but the end result will be worth it. Keep up the excellent work.

[@ollie9199]

Slightly off topic my dude but, moved into a bigger shop so looking for a permanent table/panel saw. Is there a skookum cast iron one that you’d recommend?

[@BradshawJoinery]

I'm not sure on the cast iron front. Altendorf are top drawer and can find some s/h ones for reasonable money. Felder are good too but a bit more fragile.

[@stevend9960]

The paint problem is because of distemper which is an early emulsion type paint which is a nightmare to paint over. There is a primer available to bind it or for such a small amount you can sand/scrape it off.

[@BradshawJoinery]

Thanks Stephen, I got over it with zinser Bin Shellac based primer.

I am assuming that this is a solid wooden door ? Would it be advisable to fit three or four hinges instead of two. Thanks for an in depth video.

Very interesting! -- QUESTION -- You mentioned that you prefer not to use a primer as it will tend to chip at the primer leve. However, I thought that you did use a primer on the Double hung Sash window build (I think it was that one). Was that simply because of a customer request or what was the reason?

[@BradshawJoinery]

Exterior joinery on Accoya, you need stain blocking properties which the primer contains, but for internal or more durable applications i would skip the primer and make hard work of getting a finish from the topcoat

My opinion, the door and trim being so perfect with a factory finish and all are out of character with the historical existing parts of the building. JIM 🤔

[@BradshawJoinery]

Hi Jim, The goal is to renovate to a high standard. I would never install anything to make it look rough. If perfectly installed it can be aged back, but the door isnt factory finish, its hand painted, the spraying just speeds the process of building up the layers.
