The Last Door

November 26th, 2011 Comments Off

The Woody Housing Project came with most of it’s original doors, some in better condition than others.  Dad and I have stripped, repaired and refinished various doors as we’ve renovated the different rooms.  We’ve done the upstairs bathroom door, the 3 bedroom doors, the front door, the side door, the living room door, and the 2 pocket doors between the living and dining rooms.

Now there’s only 1 left – the office door.  There are 3 other doors in the house (basement, downstairs bathroom, pantry) but they’re cheap home centre hollow core doors that will be getting the heave-ho when it’s time.

Here’s the patient on the operating table:

I’m having trouble finding the motivation to start working on it.  I’ve been refinishing doors for so long that I never thought I would see the end, and now that the end is in sight I think I’ll miss the work.

I’m being foolish and should just put on my big boy pants and get on with it.
