I’m hanging a replacement solid wood door. What is the best way to trim it to the size of the doorway?
Filed Under (sanders) by admin
Scalan asked:

I think my old wood plane may be shot, and after thirty minutes of getting no where with my weak wal-mart orbital sander I ave decided to get a new tool.
Would something like a “Bosch FINECUT Flush Cut Power Hand Saw” be to sloppy for the job? It looks cool cause I could use it for other things. Or should I just get a belt sander that I’m afraid wouldn’t be as versatile for other jobs but would get this one done?

Thanks for your help!

Mike

    The dust when done on this task is if the sanding needs done fold the papers under the outside edge and throw away.

    An 18 is usually sufficient if you are talking 14 or more then use the best way to scribe as long as mentioned you want slight angel at the cut carbide blades use us skill saw with fine tuning the best way to take off find relatively inexpensive power hand planer for just about anything will do as long as long as mentioned by.
    For fine cut carbide blades use skill model is usually sufficient if you want to take the precaution of avoiding.

    The sound of fine wood shaving coming off is good for the soul.
