I came to this channel for the awesome woodworking….but was rewarded with the wonderful cat cameos!! I had two furballs that followed us everywhere and did everything with us too…woodworking, gardening, riding in homemade cardboard contraptions with the kids, helping them with the obstacle course….such great memories. These two probably have better woodworking skills than many of us (LOL). That was an amazing design, the only thing missing is the feline retinal scanner to open allow them entrance!! Looking forward to the rest of the build.

Since you don't do too much paint-grade stuff, you should look at Bourbon Moth's tip on pin nailing (or at least that's where I learned it from)! Take some blue tape and pin through it, apply wood putty/filler, and then remove the blue tape afterwards. It removes the step of having to clean up the excess putty/filler and risk taking off those nice edges! Love the door!

For the glue up sliding problem: use a small amount of washed, coarse sand. It will prevent the wood from sliding and will not mess up the chemical prozess of the glue itself.

I may have missed it in the video but is the film "normally opaque" or "normally transparent"? In other words if the power goes out while I am changing, does everyone suddenly get more than they paid for?

[@carlpetitt2241]

hey Keith, another great video and great project. One question -- @ 18:00 you glue the thin walnut pieces to each other -- a small end-grain glue up. I saw that and thought wow is that going to have enough holding strength? I've found that when I've done some end grain glue ups, like for a picture frame with mitered corners, once I start sanding or introducing any stress or vibration the glue joints sometimes separate. And later in the video you ended up reducing that trim piece down to like 1/16th so again I saw that and was terrified the whole assembly would just break apart at the glue joints. Glad that didn't happen though. Is the secret to use a dab of CA glue like you did? or would even just using regular glue hold well enough? oh, and second question -- how do you like your Harvey DC? I've been looking at them and love all their features and innovative design, but I can't get past the terrible placement of the main inlet. Seems like it makes setting up any ductwork, or placement of the machine itself, very awkward. Would love to hear your impressions. Thanks!

[@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking]

Sometimes with end grain glue-ups, the grain soaks up the glue and you end up starving the joint, so you can size the joint with a "wash" of 50/50 water to glue and then apply more glue. With harder woods like oak and walnut, that is not as much of an issue. A big factor is also giving the joint sufficient time to dry before moving it. Since these arched frames weren't going to be under any stress and were being attached flat onto another surface there is no real danger of those joints separating. And I only use CA glue to get the quick grab - I don't recommend it for long term end grain glue-ups because it can be fragile.

Correct. It needs power to be able to go clear. So, when the door is open and the contact switch isn't engaged, it's frosted. That's a good question about windows...my guess is if the power goes out, you would have a house full of frosted windows. Unless you install some kind of battery backup.
