I vote for no door. I regret ever putting a door on mine. Just keeps heat in and gives the wasp a place to hide and suprise me.
I'm like you I'm not sure I even want a door.

Meh, add some ventilation across the top (maybe some screen sandwiched between 1/4" hardware cloth) to let the heat out and a tight sealing door to keep the varmints out... otherwise it'll collect leafs, birds/shat, possums and every wasp/dirtdobber within 50 miles

If you we're closer to Raleigh, I'd send you by our yard and spare you that Lowe's PT stuff
Looks great man. I'm meeting with a GC next week about my shop build. Been watching your thread as preparation.
40 more oz's, probably going to do 48 more this weekend and it should almost fill the 1/4" void, then a final flood coat, next it will be sand sand sand sand then buff till she's glassy and then top it with odes oil.

@skyhighZJ came to the house and picked up this beauty! Glad to be finished with it. I hope his family enjoys it for years to come.

For right now it’s holding down duty as a side board in the dinning room until we can get to the bathroom remodel. This is ART!! absolutely gorgeous!! The pictures didn’t do it justice. When I got there it was amazing and when I got home the wife was blown away. Thanks so much for the amazing work!!
Well I finally ponied up and got a what I hope to be good planer. It's a delta 3 blade. I did a small test run on a piece of cherry and the finish it close to as smooth as 220 grit or better. Hopefully it will give me many years of service.

Well I've got another few projects on the books but working in Raleigh, its tough getting anything done other than come home mow every other weekend.
Hopefully I'll get something done to update this thread with some actual progress but stay tuned.
I'll be working on a TV console and some end tables.

Another little epoxy project for the shop wall. Added a snazzy sticker on the helmet before I dumped 16 oz's on it. Had to bring it inside to let it cure it sat over night and was still tacky so ill let it chill upstairs and get max heat on it.
