Keep in mind, too, that there are businesses that specialize in
stripping furniture, and apparently have stripping tanks large enough to
dunk an entire door in. You might consider this, if the whole door
really does need to be stripped. Plus they take care of disposing of all
the toxic **** left over afterwards.

Absolutely, positively the best way to get it done. For the price the
pros charge, you will 'pay' yourself far less than minimum wage for
the job and with much poorer results, and no satisfaction. Use your
time for more important projects and SWMBO will respect you. Plus you
will need better tools for those kinds of activities. Its a win-win
situation.
