Making Due

Putting trim on the door and chiseling out the bits and pieces to accommodate where the hardware is going to go.

 



Trim is up and door is rehung:


Now I need a closet door.  I rummaged through the garbage down stairs and found an old window and a good sized 2" x 8" x 10" and got to work.  I ripped the board in 2 3/4" strips then planned them down individually to square everything up.  Once that was done I started with the assemblage.  



Door is hung with only a few minor adjustment.  Since I don't have any good hand planers I had to take the circular saw to it and shave a 1/4" off the bottom.  More than I need but I'll put a threshold in later.  

Staining complete.  I used Classic American.  So fucking patriotic:
