Furniture – The doors

Once you have your panels cut you will need to finish some of the edges. Whenever I didn’t use the aluminium profiles and had a non-laminated edge I had to used iron-on laminated edging. If properly fitted it’s really solid. I tried removing some to test it using a Stanley Knife blade and it was breaking up before the glue gave in. In other words it was well and truly bonded, which is what you want to see.


Below: Note the Ferrari cap, it’s carefully positioned on the seat to make the readers think I have a Ferrari….cap. I don’t know were I got that cap from, it’s not something I would buy, maybe someone threw it at me in anger?

Below: As I have a few door handles to fit I decided to make a template. Which not only saved me a lot of time but ensured that each handle was perfectly aligned.
