Pro door hangers use a plane because often they don't have the space to lay the door out on sawhorses or whatever and, because they do sod all else all day, they're pretty good at it. For the rest of us, and I include chippies who don't hang doors all day long, the circ saw method is pretty foolproof |

MUCH safer to trim the door gradually with a plane until it clears the new carpet or tiles. |

You do if you are charging a customer for it. Indeed, a hand plane is easier to use for the unskilled. Bull**** for someone who has never used one before. Something as large as a door is going to be even more difficult. Nope, just have the door on one of the long edges and the bottom vertical. Do it half at a time and turn the door over so its on the other long side when you have done half the bottom and do the other half. Ha ha ha ha! Why not just for once take the word of those who have actually done the job? Because I have done the ****ing job a lot more often than you ever have and done it fine with an electric plane and have enough of a clue to be able to realise that someone like the OP isnt going to be able to work out how much to take off with a circular saw and is much safer doing it a bit at a time until the door works fine, with an electric planer. But you haven't done the job as often as I have. You're suggesting take a bit off, re hang door, take a bit off, re hang door, take a bit off, re hang door. It would take all day. Getting the right amount off is dead simple. Position door next to frame resting on a couple of spacers (pencils work fine). Measure distance between hinge rebate and hinge. Remove that amount from bottom. Perfect job. Doesn't matter how quick it is for him. -- Dave - The Medway Handyman |

Rod Speed wrote David Lang wrote Rod Speed wrote Stuart Noble wrote whisky-dave wrote John Smith wrote Wife has fitted a new carpet in a room and now door won't shut as pile is too thick. What's the best tool to take off a bit off the bottom - a plane I presume but I've not used one for years so what's a reasonable low cost one. I used a rasp last time, took a while longer than perhaps a plane would have, but I only needed a few mm's off, it was a relativley weak bathroom door rather than solid wood. The beauty of the circ saw method is that you can take off nothing at all at one end and, say, 5mm at the other. Perfect cut every time. Plenty of doors have been butchered over the years by plane and handsaw merchants, and this is a way of straightening things up. But the major downside for someone like the OP is that you do need to be able to calculate how much needs to be taken off and you've ****ed the door if you take off too much. The big advantage with using a plane is that that approach is a lot more forgiving so you are much less likely to **** the door. You are far more likely to fuber the door with a power plane, halfwit. Bull****, ****wit. Do stop making a fool of yourself. You're the one doing that. Five minutes ago you didn't even know there was end grain on the bottom of a door. You're lying thru your ****ing teeth, just like you always end up doing when you have got done like a ****ing dinner, as you always are. When you're in a ****ing hole, STOP DIGGING, ****wit. |

Rod Speed wrote David Lang wrote Rod Speed wrote Dave Plowman (News) wrote Rod Speed wrote You need a circular saw and a sawboard Nowhere near as good IMO. I've trimmed around 15 doors this year. Trust me, No thanks. it's quicker & more accurate. But not as good for the OP who isnt likely to be able to work out just how much should be removed. Much safer to do it more gradually with an electric plane for someone like that. Have you ever used a sawboard? Yep, use one all the time with a circular saw, essentially because I don’t have a table saw. And that is irrelevant to the point I was making about what is best for someone like the OP who has never done a door before. Something else you've never used, obviously. There you go, face down in the mud, as always. Even with the work horizontal and on a workbench, it's not easy to make a perfect job with a power plane. You don't need a perfect job with the bottom of a ****ing door, ****wit. You do if you are charging a customer for it. No you don’t. No customer will even notice if the bottom of the door isnt perfectly square with the face of the door and the OP isnt charging any customer for it anyway. Indeed, a hand plane is easier to use for the unskilled. Bull**** for someone who has never used one before. Something as large as a door is going to be even more difficult. Nope, just have the door on one of the long edges and the bottom vertical. Do it half at a time and turn the door over so its on the other long side when you have done half the bottom and do the other half. Ha ha ha ha! Wota stunning line in rational argument you have there. It's all your feeble argument deserves. Must explain why you are making such a spectacular fool of yourself going on and on and on with your mindless silly **** that has no relevance what so ever to what the OP asked about. Why not just for once take the word of those who have actually done the job? Because I have done the ****ing job a lot more often than you ever have and done it fine with an electric plane and have enough of a clue to be able to realise that someone like the OP isnt going to be able to work out how much to take off with a circular saw and is much safer doing it a bit at a time until the door works fine, with an electric planer. But you haven't done the job as often as I have. Irrelevant to what is a lot safer for someone who has never done a door before like the OP. So, in your rant above You never could bull**** and lie your way out of a wet paper bag. you claim "Because I have done the ****ing job a lot more often than you ever have." It isn't a claim, it’s a fact. But when you come across someone who has trimmed more doors than you could count its irrelevant? Its completely irrelevant to what is SAFER FOR THE OP, ****wit. You're suggesting take a bit off, re hang door, Nope, no need to rehang the door, just stand it up on the new higher floor covering and see if its now got where the hinges go a little lower than where the hinges attach. And mostly find that it now is fine even if it’s the first one the OP has ever done. take a bit off, re hang door, take a bit off, re hang door. It would take all day. Not when you have enough of a ****ing clue to not bother to rehang the door every time you check if enough has been removed, even if you were doing it. It didn’t for anyone who has done it that way. Getting the right amount off is dead simple. Not for someone who has never done a door before. Which you clearly haven't. There you go again, face down in the ****ing mud, as always. Position door next to frame resting on a couple of spacers (pencils work fine). Measure distance between hinge rebate and hinge. Remove that amount from bottom. Perfect job. Not if you want less gap than a pencil under the door. Halfwit. ****wit. The weight of the door pushes the pencils into the carpet slightly and gives a perfect result. Pity about when it's not carpet and that approach doesn’t. And the OP wouldn’t even think of doing it like that. And the FAQ doesn’t even spell that out either. And for the OP, there is a lot more work involved in making a sawboard that he obviously doesn’t have than just using an electric plane on the one door he wants to do. You can make a sawboard from scrap timber in 10 minutes, halfwit. You don’t know that he has any scrap timber, ****wit. Doesn't matter how quick it is for him. |

Rod Speed wrote David Lang wrote Rod Speed wrote Stuart Noble wrote Here's the thing. Pro door hangers use a plane because often they don't have the space to lay the door out on sawhorses or whatever and, because they do sod all else all day, they're pretty good at it. For the rest of us, and I include chippies who don't hang doors all day long, the circ saw method is pretty foolproof Like hell it is. The problem with using a circular saw is that it is MUCH harder for someone who has never done a door before to work out how much to take off. MUCH safer to trim the door gradually with a plane until it clears the new carpet or tiles. Or do it properly and get it right first time. Very unlikely the OP would manage to do that and even if he does, there is a lot more work to make a sawboard that he obviously doesn’t have than to do it with an electric plane more safely for the door and get a perfectly acceptable result. You have clearly never used an electric plane. There you go again, face down in the ****ing mud, as always. Even a terminal ****wit such as yourself should be able to use groups.google and see where I have had quite a bit to say about where I have used one, long before you ever showed up, thanks. |

The one thing with a plane on a door top/bottom is not to come off the far edge, but to plane from both edges to the middle, otherwise you can knock a lump off the corner. I learnt that on door #1 !

It does in fact have THIRTEEN patio doors, because all the rooms except the bathrooms and toilets have at least one of them instead of a ****ing window. And there are plenty of internal doors as well. The one thing with a plane on a door top/bottom is not to come off the far edge, but to plane from both edges to the middle, otherwise you can knock a lump off the corner. I learnt that on door #1 ! After that it was fine. He clearly didn’t have any problem with the stiles either. Which part of "otherwise you can knock a lump off the corner" was too complicated for you to grasp? No need to ask you what part of "I learnt that on door #1 ! After that it was fine" was too complicated for you to grasp, it's obvious all of it was. Just one word with more than one syllable too. No surprise that Nilfisk gave you the bums rush, right out the ****ing door, onto your lard arse and you ended up running around cutting off doors to pay your grog bill. |

We've already had a lot more say that they have trimmed doors using a plane than bother with a sawboard and circular saw when they don’t already have one. reams of your desperate attempts at insults any 2 year old could leave for dead flushed where they belong Five minutes ago you didn't even know there was end grain on the bottom of a door. You're lying thru your ****ing teeth, just like you always end up doing when you have got done like a ****ing dinner, as you always are. When you're in a ****ing hole, STOP DIGGING, ****wit. Oh am I? Yep. reams of your desperate attempts at insults any 2 year old could leave for dead flushed where they belong |
