French Door Progress

Project: 

In a Previous Post, I wrote about our new french doors for between the living and dining rooms. Last night, with my new table saw, I ripped about an inch and a half off of each of 3 edges on the two doors. I left the knob edge alone on one door because I didn't have the space to countersink the lockset. One door will have a very wide panel, but that's OK. It'll look a little weird, but that's alright. Now that the doors fit the space horizontally, I'll need to plane them perfectly straight, chisel in 4 hinges, 2 sliding rod locks and a strike plate, then strip all the paint off of them, sand, and refinish with at least 6 coats of polyurethane. I just hope they'll look decent after all that work. If they don't look nice in a natural finish, then they'll have to just stay white. More photos upcoming...
