Today I stared to work on a door and figured this would make a nice step-by-step article. Therefore I will make pics at each step on the way and post them in this topic...So if you feel as a newbie, then get back here at a regular base to learn how you make a door of your own.
Step 1 :
You need a piece of wood, plasticard or cardboard, that fits on the inside of the hole in the wall. I used Abachi-wood for this part, since it's hard and easy to cut. Next to that I love the fine grain it has. Abachi wood is used most of the times to make decks on model ships, but it is excellent for wooden objects in our hobby too, although it is quite more expensive than Balsa wood.
The text for the other steps will follow shortly...
