May 23

  • Today we put up the door. first thing we did was made sure the bottom was leveled by using the aluminium straight edge and placing it on the ground and putting the spirit level on top of it to get and accurate level instead of trusting to place the spirit level itself on the ground and get a cricked result if the timber is either twisted or bowed. then we placed wedges under the door and then plambed the sides 10mm on both sides equally. then we tacked it to the wall with nails. then measured the space in between the top and then measured the bottom aswell and doubled the studs and nailed them at every 330mm. after that we used the skilly saw to saw the plywood so it could fit in between the wall and the door and succeeded and then tacked it in.
