This weekend’s project was building door stops for the cellar door and installing them on the jamb. I ripped each stop from a 2×4 and then cut a kerf to accommodate weatherstripping. I couldn’t use standard moulding because the latch side of the 5-inch-thick door is beveled so that it can clear the jamb. That bevel makes it narrower on the inside and necessitated a 1 inch thick stop on that side. Next time I’ll give it a lick of paint. #ProjectWineCellar #wine #woodworking

This weekend I got the door and jamb painted, installed the jamb, and then hung the door with the help of my brother and a friend. With the door hung, it feels like I actually finish this project someday! #ProjectWineCellar #wine #woodworking

I made more progress on #ProjectWineCellar. Last trip up, I routed hinge mortises in the door and door jamb. #wine #woodworking
