Re: 42" build in Central Texas

Very nice indeed. A fire within would probably sorted some bugs for you and have looked good too but it is a build to be proud of.

Congratulations.

That's what I'm talkin' about! The only thing better would be the adding "the heart light" (fire from within the oven) .

True Dat G, Thanks Nova!

Re: 42" build in Central Texas

I don't think I am qualified to give advice yet.....but give it a month and fix it if you still want to. I have a very large patio that is Stamped Concrete. It is beautiful. Imagine 3 cement trucks coming to your house - full of cement. It's 30 yards. I was very crazy about how it looked and not messing it up. It was all sealed and pretty.

Now, I love it with all it's imperfections and age. I learned to appreciate the way it looks after it ages etc.

But if your door doesn't work properly, only you can decide what to do.
Good luck.

Re: 42" build in Central Texas

G'day
My first carved ACC door I made to perfect and once the door got hot it expanded and jammed in the revile. Easy, just wait until it cools I thought. Hours later I put some pressure on the handles and the door shot out of the revel like a champagne cork. The pressure had built up behind with the heat.
Sometimes a perfect seal is not a desirable thing. A little leak is not going to be a great heat loser for you.
Regards dave

I don't know, that entryway is all butchered up after that grinder fell out of your hands. Better break out the sledge and have at it.


I wonder what kind of dreams you will have now?

Ha, I was just reading thru my whole thread (while watching Forrest Gump) recalling all of the great comments, advice, humor, and psychology....

My only concern is that "door ding" is right where my door will seal against the reveal. Thinking I'll mix up a Tablespoon of Heat Stop with some tiny firebrick pieces in it and try to regain the original form. Its my nature to want to "fix" it!
