- yay I sunk my first door hinge! Im a big boy now! #
- My first doorframe. It was a learning project. http://yfrog.com/4f3×4pj #
- Second door frame. this one is closer to a masterpiece. yes its plumb and square! http://yfrog.com/4f8wggj #
- Third door frame. This is is perfectly plumb, square and the gap around the door is perfectly even. http://yfrog.com/1el6ouj #
- piece of tile I had to break to get the frame to plumb right. http://yfrog.com/3225054465j #
- 1st frame was wonky, i had to remove some nails. this was too high up and I mashed the jamb. I learned my lesson. http://yfrog.com/3ifayfj #
- these are shims. little flat wedges of wood. in the background is the first sunk door hinge slot. http://yfrog.com/3280qdj #
- time for the 2nd hinge slot. hopefully this one will go smoother. #
- 2nd hinge done. I routed the outline with a dremel and used the chisel for the rest. yes, a #chisel http://yfrog.com/4i4l6nj #
- time for a snack, maybe some peanuts, butter cookies and water. mmmm #
- I ate that up like a starved rabid squirrel. chcchchch. time to screw the hinges in! #
- okay hinges work but old door frame is skewed, need to plane the top of the door. #

- time to do some cleanup. this is the old frames and trim from the old doors. http://yfrog.com/3g5wekj #
- okay. that lumber refuse is cleaned up. time for a little broom and vac work. #
- next project, replacing these with 6 paneled doors. notice door on left? yeah they dont sell doors that short. http://yfrog.com/35q1zzj #
- so the 70" door (shorter door) is going to be cut from a 80" 6-panel door. its hollow so making it nice is going to be fun. #
- going to use millimeters and centimeters to measure these hinges. they just line up better.you're only as accurate as your measuring device #
- first I mark it and then I route the inside of the outline with the #dremel.could route the rest out or use a chisel http://yfrog.com/3itf0j #
- I decided to use the #dremel. It came out much cleaner using the router attachment. http://yfrog.com/3ll5wvuj #
- one of the hinges is off by 1/16 of inch! 1/16! argh. time for wood putty… #
- now I have to wait an hour for that stuff to dry before I can redrill the holes.
measure 10 times cut once! # - left: old door. right:new door. notice the problem? I cant just cut 10 inches off the top, the panels will be wonky. http://yfrog.com/3i9p0j #
- man they replaced all my index files… now I gotta reup them #
- why can't FTP apps have a simple 'search for anything changed on this date and replace it with the backup' command? #

- #FF #follow @camerafraudaz to support bringing down the cameras! #
