Got Some Doors Today, Neo
This is all for you, Neo.
Took delivery of some doors today. Nothing real fancy, just paint grade shaker. Maple frames and a mdf panel. Drawer fronts are mostly 5 piece but one little vanity needed some small solid fronts. 56 parts in all. All the edges are broken and ready for paint. Total cost = $1258.60 average part cost = $22.48 The parts were ordered one week ago today when we started the job. Cabinets are just about ready for doors. Thats how we roll. My gift to you Neo, and its not even Christmas. Let the banter continue

Neo doesn't get the doors, silly. He gets the entertainment of the outsourcing issue. He is easily entertained and those are the only types I can entertain.

Re: Got Some Doors Today, Neo
It won't be fun til Leo gets here.
You do prove that no matter how expensive it is every horizontal surface becomes storage.

Re: Got Some Doors Today, NeoQuote:
This got me to thinking........and perhaps this has been discussed at length her before......but do most of you order your doors BEFORE you build the boxes and face them......or do most of you wait til you get the faces on the cabinets before you order the doors?? |

Re: Got Some Doors Today, Neo
What does..."edges are broken" mean?
I realise this is a clique type discussion among the elite...but indulge me please. |

Re: Got Some Doors Today, Neo
I'll use a 1/16" round over bit, set very shallow, or just use some 150 grit sandpaper for a quick pass when making doors, to "break the edge"
