Default What would have been a professional way to carve the shape of this door for a good fit?

I don't think elves use professional methods. They live a communal
life where each helps the others. Also no use of power tools,
because large humans kept tripping on the extension cords and
accidentally ripping them out.

I'm with micky-- The whole idea of 'all elves are master craftsmen' is
off base. They have more important things to do than to make
perfect corners and tight fits. After all, before the door, there
was *no* door there.

And next week the tree will change its shape. Better to concentrate
on bringing whimsy to the world than to obsess over things being
perfect.

Neat article-- I was sure it was going to end with an arrest.
