Brilliant to watch the care you take with your work, and it shows through in the final piece.
WOW I’m blown away at the amazing job you did on this door, now that is talent. Well done. I could not take my eyes of the screen.💜
Thank you Cathy!!:)
I love watching all sorts of maker/woodworking videos but there is something about watching a true craftsman at work that makes me want to strive to do better, watching you work is pretty awesome great job mate from start to finish 👌👌👌👍👍👍
Thanks very kind , thank you
If only I could be this cam in my own workshop......great job as always
Wow! Simply amazing job!
Another awesome video and build. Love watching you work. Well done. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Cheers !!!
Awesome work !!! Nice and clean !!!
Great you are a joy to watch don't stop making videos 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Beautiful door and amazing attention to detail.
I will totally agree with that - it is a pleasure to watch this standard of workmanship.
you're my new youtube woodworking hero!
Epic thxs
Thanks very much for sharing this, huge amount of useful info and motivation as well :) very neat job and amazing machinery.
Jaysus! You do incredible work! ....I was gonna say more, but I think that covers it!
Cheers
Beautiful and neat work.
Very smart looking door & frame.
Very impressive door you made
Thank you for the video
How important it is for sharp tools and jigging. AWESOME.
great work great music!
Cheers !:)
Beautiful.
Looks fantastic as always ...I made iroko doors for my house and used (concealed) simonswerk tectus 3d hinges in bronze colour, if you want a clean look, they really are something else.
Thank you, I think your right on the simonswerk hinges they look amazing . I client bought hardware to match exciting on the project
That is one sexy door👌
Awesome work, mate👍
Cheers Bill :)
Très bel ouvrage, bravo.
You are a master craftsman. Be3autiful to watch
Very nice
My greeting from iraq
Hello
Great work - I like to use the laser as well but got caught once - a parallelogram also has equal left and right lengths but isn’t square -don’t ask me how I know. You did well lifting that glass - it’s heavy. Cheers
ascot4000 Hi - thanks for this. I did mean a parallelogram though - just measuring up the sides, not across the diagonals which are different as you said but it’s tricky to get the laser to measure into a corner. At least it’s a trick I haven’t mastered. Cheers
Great work as usual 👌 And fantastic workshop and setup machines 😍
I love the melody in all your videos, is it yours or can I find it somewhere?
Great
Nice
SUPER
My greeting from iraq well done
Nice job - very nice, IME '' modern plain'' joinery is harder to get ''right and tight'' as there is nothing to draw the eye from joints etc etc.
Grea video and workmanship, it is a shame carpentry has becomes a tools/equipment arms race. All these productivity aids like Dominos increase productivity/profitability in the short term but it’s been shown time and again that the end result when products like this reduce the skill levels become common place the savings are passed onto the customer and margins/profits drop.
I must say when building something like a simple like a door , anyway to make it more fun and quicker gets my vote, I do think traditional methods for some furniture is still king
adie chip I don’t really see why it matters if tenons are loose or cut, so long as a decent adhesive is used. I’ve even made fox tenons using Dominos. If your working with Accoya or something fancy like that I’d make the dominos from the same material.
adie chip Hi Adie, always interesting to hear a well reasoned argument. Some valid points and we won’t really know either way for 25 years. Coatings adhesives techniques and timber have all changed a lot over the last 25 years. Construction still seems very suspicious of new methods/materials and slow to adopt compared to other sectors. In truth what is the expected life time of a timber window/door? 25 years?
Bottom line guys is there are few clients nowadays willing to pay for fully hand-crafted work...
Its simple economics really... a guy has to put food on the table & if that means using powertools to maintain competitiveness then so be it.
The romanticisim of "traditional" woodworking is all fine and well but the (consistant) demand is not there. Most people would prefer to spend their money on a large-screen TV... sad ... I know... 😔
Awesome work! What was that adhesive you used to set the glass with frame into place?
Lovely job and I am sure the installer and customer were very happy. Would it not have been an easier installation if the glass had been fitted on site?
the order was for a pre hung on this , install was very quick and easy for the installer .. as I supplied this finished and pre hung
nice work man! surprised you didn't spray it before adding the glass though 🤔
Clean, simple, professional. Right up my street this one buddy. Good work. BTW, what's the story behind your...er...story stick? Have you just joined two pieces of Woodpeckers 48" 3 slot track? EDIT: just ordered a couple of Woodpeckers 1200mm story stick pro's. That should make things a little easier ;)
Cheers man, it’s a woodpecker story stick I bought in the US but metric version
I am about to build a similar white oak door for my home. What is the black weather stripping you used on the the glass pane please?
I recently found you channel and I am really enjoying and learning alot from all your videos!
Great job Thank you!
Looks great! I know you didn't do the finishing(??) but do you know what would be used to get that Iroko to a nice colour?
the pictures you see at the end are un finished , the house it went into is a very dark almost black stain .
That’s a beautiful door👍
Love watching all your videos, but you have odd methods to doing things; like the giant domino instead of tenon and mortice. I guess if I have the variation of tools you had I would do the same! Still great to watch, thanks.
Hi, somebody knows what kind of bit do I need for cutting the wood edge for glass ? Thank you
Hi! Huge fan and learning a lot always here! I am planning to copy these doors (in maple) and am suddenly very concerned about movement, they would be south facing in New York. Any advice is really appreciated! Looking forward to a good project, especially after having watched you!
Thank you .! Try this version for external door if you are worried about south facing , as I laminate the door which really helps with any movement ..czcams.com/video/7DFmZ8dbk1k/video.html If you need more detail I also have much more in-depth version on my Patreon site.. www.patreon.com/manorwood
Спасибо. Дверь супер! Какой клей для стекла использовали? Или это герметик?
Just found ya man... nice work there, new Sub & Like...I'm hoping to do a bit of learnin 'round here !! 😉
... now ....to rummage through yer archives 😈
Greetings from the Emerald Isle
👍😎☘
Top man , welcome !!
Just curious what size and type of router bit did you use for routing the rabbet for the glass?
This door looks great but if for any reason the glass broke how you put a new one if you glue the corners.
Just remove the 4 strip they are only fixed with 23g nails , I use none setting window seller so it’s hard well but can be pulled apart easy
Beautiful workshop. But why door frame is not straight on 5:51 min, if you have such a good jointer... It looks like a bow.
Super job. If you have time can you tell me what chisels you use. And pin nailer? Thanks
Nailer is a 23g bought in a set from Rutland £89 for the pair - link to chisels here.

@@ManorWood It's nearly doubled in price in 2yrs!
Hey brother how do you deal with finishing in your shop? Do you have a spray booth? Or do you do more manual methods out on the work benches?
Mostly manual, I do sometimes spray but don’t have a dedicated booth
Nice job Andy. Did you suffer any reaction working with the Iroko, I did the last time I worked with it, couldn't stop sneezing.
Cheers, no I am ok with but some people to have an allergic reaction. Some very bad
Hi... An absolute pleasure to watch your video. Your a genius at your trade. I have a question... How do I measure glass to fit on a timber door? It would be a great if you can respond. Once again great content!!
Cheers , Depending on the type of wood and we’re the door is going etc.. but leaving 3mm all around is a good place to start with large oak doors
With Iroko you can leave less
nice work. it seems really adjusted. Arent you afraid that the door get stuck with wood movements ?
3mm all around should be fine
ok great @@ManorWood
How do you find the domino compare the traditional mortice and tenon in strength and durability?
The same
Great work, how many time did it take to complete that door if don't mind me asking ? from a fellow french joiner
I think 3 days , but I can’t really remember now . The iroko was a real pain to cut on the bandsaw I do remember that.
@@ManorWood Thanks very much for the answer
How is that Altendorf WA6 treating you so far? Any negatives with it yet? Thank you from Milton, WA. USA
None I love it !! it does everything I need . The only reason I would upgrade would be for a 450mm blade and CNC fence .but that 3 x the the price of the WA6 .. even then I would still buy Altendorf over Felder for panel saw..!
What brand self centering drill? The one that fits centrotec
Axminster
Great work. Instead of glass, can you use clearish epoxy in one of your door projects? It would look cool:D
Could be interesting, let’s hope some commissions me to make one ☝️
I continue to use as a back catalogue so that, when I’m planning a new project, I can see what you’ve got to “say” about or something similar.
I’m soon to build a pair of internal glazed doors for the barn we are converting. I say a pair, by which I mean double doors. We’ve got a double front door with glazed panels either side; then a small entrance room and then these double doors which lead into the main living room. I’m building using European oak because most of the timber we are using for liners, skirting’s is that. I want each doors to have muntons but in a modern style - nothing as fancy as a traditional cope and stile set would produce. So that’s the project. My questions are:
- do you have any reservations now, after a period of time, about using mega dominos for the frame - because that would be my preferred route.
- would you have any issue about using loose tenons for the joint of munton to frame - there would be about 10 individual double glazed units within the door - the units are not all the same size but symmetrical top, bottom and side to side
Thank you
Got quite a lot of windows and doors to remake for the new workshop there is a big set of oak bifold is coming very soon and then tons of oak windows , I don’t see any problem using mega dominoes or regular large dominoes/loose tenants. I am going to be using my new spindle moulder and now have a Mortiser so I’m going to be building the old way as I have so many to do , so with the new tooling also bought it will work out quicker for me and glue up simpler, it’s definitely a slower process when making one or two doors or windows, but faster patching out work when the set up is all done, but involve large machines ! quickest and simplest is the dominos for one off jobs
@@ManorWood thank you for replying. There is a joy to making traditional mortise and tenons joints which you don’t get from using a domino but I think there is a joy to using most hand tools instead of machines. However, I don’t suppose for one minute that you could make money because of the extra time it would take a professional; in my case, it’s just that I can’t use my shoulders too much - even repeated dominoes is too much physically.
You’ve obviously invested a shed load (pun intended) into as much high quality machinery as you can reasonably get; for anyone to get a return on that, you need volume to go through the shop. I’m sure you are aware of the issue of chasing turnover to feed the machines; from afar, I’m guessing your selling point is bespoke items made with native timbers for people who want and can afford the very best.
For a couple of years, I went from a hobby of cabinet making to a business employing 2.5 people (me being the half as I was only around half the time) but still as a very small sideline to my own bigger business (employing 40). I started with an increasingly wide circle of almost exclusively American clients over here for 3,4,5 years for their American bank or financial businesses in the City. We were making almost exclusively (English) Arts and Craft style furniture for them. It was my preferred style and it was a very profitable business albeit relatively small turnover. As I said, this carried on for a couple of years or so with clients introducing friends who became clients but, inevitably, this demand began to diminish. I faced the decision of whether to go bigger - on a smaller scale to what you have done since your very first videos or stick to making things for friends and family. I think and thought that the amount of effort required to make a bigger concern profitable when my target was a small percentage of a large market. So, I ran the side line down. Very glad I did because I got the pleasure back in to my cabinet making. I really hope that you have made a sustainable business which is still enjoyable; sometimes, you give the impression to me that you are not enjoying it.
Anyway, thank you for reading my first mail and taking the time to reply.
Which festool mitre saw do you have, 60/88/120. Love your big mft btw
cheers... ks120.. love it
Awesome job! What would you estimate the cost of all those machines and tools? $100,000 or so?
No idea , took years to collect
How you check square with the laser measure? Thanks
Same as a tape, into the rebate or the corner edge
Late to this, how has that latch held up on a door of that weight? looked a little lightweight to me, 6 months on.....
no hear of any problems
Why didnt you remove the rabbets for The glass before on the felder shaper?
Quicker faster joints , using my mega domino
@@ManorWood i understand that, Domino is Great, i ment since you have the Shaper(Hammer or Felder) why you dont cut out the groove for The glass on it in stead of Hand Router?
Also i have been meaning to ask you have you ever considerd Mafell dd40?

When installing the glass, an overhead hoist would make sense for a one man operation.
Nice job … just love over height doors … since I don’t have a hinge jig I use the Domino 700 for radius and Soss hinges by just marking the centers (shown in blue on attached) … for shallow hinge recesses the plunge depth can be limited below 15mm with spacers … making up a label with the machine settings for each hinge/joint on this folding table base gives repeatability … am also resisting Sketch up!! www.dropbox.com/s/oulxr3dbt7qxgln/Domino%20hinges%20%281%29%20%281%29.pdf?dl=0
I love this ! thanks for sharing .. I can't quite work out how you cut Soss hinges with just a domino 700 and got such a good fit , but what a great job you have done ..
Great video mate .... tool porn at its best 😍
I did it myself thanks to Woodprix.
I have checked many woodworking plan sites. I think the instructions from Woodprix are the best.
