I made this ash door for a roof deck. I haven't decided on a door handle yet. Thanks for watching

A true master in woodworking……well done! Greetings from down under Australia….stay safe!

[@TheRealElDiablo]

Bro, you’re a BEAST of a Woodworker! That wood kept pinching your table saw blade. That used to drive me nuts

[@vernhart]

That’s the most challenging glue up I have seen… ever? kudos!

[@WoodByToth]

It was fairly hard. I spent a lot of time aligning things to help it go smoothly

[@s2pointoh]

Awesome. Love your work. That table saw is a champ hanging in there without a riving knife.

[@kevinnathanson6876]

RIVING KNIFE!!! Come on, dude.... All it takes is one. Nice work as always.

[@itwasrightthere]

I winced at 2:33 I had to stop watching.

[@williamellis8993]

That's really nice, Kyle. It looks like you used every domino in the free world. I hope they make more. Todd looked like he was having fun. Bill

[@TheWakes120022]

Only 248 dominoes 😂

[@williamellis8993]

@@TheWakes120022 Did you really take the time to count them?

[@TheWakes120022]

@williamellis8993 it was more multiplication than adding, but yeah pretty much lol. My OCD brain was already adding them before I had time to think about it lol.

Thankyou for sharing

[@philsheldon2737]

Patience of a Saint! Brilliant accurate work

[@WoodByToth]

Thanks!

[@Typersx1]

Why not do half laps joints? Either way looks amazing

[@WoodByToth]

I thought about it. Was a lot more work and I didnt have enough space in the shop to pull it off well

[@forbol]

I was wondering the same thing. But then I thought he probably wanted solid vertical lines on both sides. Where as half laps would have had solid horizontals on one of the sides.

[@whitewolf8758]

Very cool project! Love the door design too!

[@WoodByToth]

Thank you! Cheers!

Good stuff man! Stressful glue up👍🏻

Fantastic build Kyle & it was good seeing the pooch at the end of the video! 👍👍🐶🐶

Thanks. I always make sure Todd makes the cut

[@robzilla2165]

I like it. Its different, unique, and well built. Thanks for posting

[@WoodByToth]

Glad you like it!

After drilling 348 dominoes for this door I bet you don't want to see anymore for a while. Nice job on the door

[@ChetKloss]

Once again, superior work.

Very nice work sir❤

Ash is my favorite grain pattern.

Nobody's getting through when they storm the gates--that sucker is a beast!

[@moycakes]

Good lookin' door, but where did your riving knife go?

[@WoodByToth]

Its bent 😢

[@SawdustnScience]

You weild that domino like you were born with it. I have struggled to use it efficiently. Any work flow or aha moments that you would suggest?

[@Estwing22]

At 2:35 you reach both hands past the blade and grabbed your workpiece by the endgrain and pulled it backwards through the blade towards yourself. Why?

[@geop5505]

I was also wondering about this as well. I rewound three times to make sure that's what I had seen, but I figure he knows what he's doing. Still was unnerved to watch it though.

[@841tl]

There was tension released in the wood causing it to pinch down on the blade. You can hear the motor bogging down. He turns the saw off and pulls the wood back through the blade. It can be very tight and require two hands to remove it.

[@paulkolodner2445]

@@841tl When I first saw it, I was shocked, but later review showed that he quickly shut off the saw before sticking his hands in there.

[@MrThumbtack]

This is such an amazing piece, and so much work that I was initially like ‘why aren’t those dominoes in the middle of each piece!? He’s being so meticulous!’ Then I realized he did that on purpose, so he wouldn’t glue the grain matched cross pieces in upside down. 😂

[@ping170]

Wow, that a whole lot of dominos !

What a beast. Nice

Lol that’s a lot of dominoes 👍

[@michaeldemiranda8157]

Think you needed a few more dominoes 🤣🤣

[@davidn7945]

that is one stressful glue-up!

[@theofarmmanager267]

Very nice work. If I were to make the same door, I would use exactly the same techniques - although I think the dust extraction on my table saw might be better. I recently made a pair of “similar” grid doors for the entrance hall to our house. As all of our house is trimmed in European oak, the doors were the same. My stiles and rails were roughly 4” wide. As I wanted individual panes of glass - each one a different colour - I came up with a solution to fit my design. I used 2 widths of oak - one roughly 4.75” wide and the other 4” wide and each half the thickness of my final doors. I effectively made 2 doors for each side (therefore 4 in total) and glued them on top of each other. As I made one door with the rails full width and the matching inside door with stiles full length, when I laminated them together, they made the joints (dominoes) incredibly strong. The other reason, apart from strength, to do it this way is that I made ready made rebates for the glass to sit in. 1/4” thick glass hand painted by my wife was secured by strips. Not better, not worse but a different method for a slightly different aesthetic. As I’m the UK, I use metric for all woodworking but I’m unfortunately old enough to have been educated in imperial and so switch from one to the other without rationale.

[@michaelturner247]

really great piece. beautiful light through it. what did you use for finish?

[@purpleidea]

Yikes dude, that thing has more dominoes than hardwood in it!

[@WoodByToth]

😂

[@thomash7016]

Love this, I’m going to tackle something similar. Did you route out both sections at the end for both of the glass plastic to fit in place ? As in route out the whole area ?

[@WoodByToth]

Yes I routed out the whole back about 9/16 deep for the 1/4 inch glass to fit. Then I routed a groove for the wood trim piece to go. I would have thicknesses the wood before glue up instead of routing the entire back out but I was not sure about the size of the glass and how many glass panel’s there would be. So I did it at the end

[@wernerpfeifer]

Grandios!

[@quirkydad6083]

Woah!!!

[@gkkent]

The door is gorgeous!! Did you wear rubber gloves when you were installing the glass to keep from getting fingerprints on it?

[@WoodByToth]

Thanks. And yeah

[@bickybickford]

Awesome!!

Thanks!

[@sdspivey]

Why do you need a handle? Just put your fingers into one of the holes and pull.

[@WoodByToth]

I think a tall/long handle will help finish it off. We’ll see though.
