Good thing you didn't have to cut the opening higher.
Don't see how you could have planned it closer.

No problem ... he has an "as-built" SketchUp model of his house, and one
of the towers, so he knew that 1/16" clearance was all he needed.

besides, he's had lots of practice getting 42" island cabinets through
'three oh eight' doors

Good job, Leon!! ...

Good thing you didn't paint it. The layers of paint might have made a
difference.

Geez guys, I tilted the towers over to a 45 when wheeling them in from the
garage on the 2 wheeler. They certainly would not have cleared the
threshold. LOL.

Y'all give way too much credit.

We have had lots of practice. LOL. I kinda missed not falling through a
hole in the floor when sliding the towers through the door though. ;~)

Or PLANED it any closerg

Reminds me of a remodeling job I did here at home. Special ordered a 5
lite Andersen casement "window wall" to fit where the garage door used
to be in our new family room. Rough opening ~ 12' wide and ~ 68" high.

Unit delivered by millwork company already assembled so we just slip it
in, right?

There we were with all my help from the office and the truck crew and we
set that sucker in place and damned if I didn't have to turn around and
bump it into place with my butt. I was sure glad that the humidity was
relatively low that day.g

Yeah, I think so. LOL.

Which reminds me of a very good friend telling me about what I like to refer
to as Chapter 498 of his yet to be written book. He called me to
specifically tell me how his day went, he is a great storry teller. He was
building a rather long fence and had literally fenced his truck in. He had
to take a section down becaure his escape route was too muddy. Getting his
truck stuck was another story all in itself.

Wow! Does SketchUp have a relative humidity function, where it
calculates the expansion and contraction of the various pieces to make
sure it will fit?

A humid garage and dry house might mean Leon had to wait until 8:27 this
evening to get the clearance needed to move the towers in.

Well, in a roundabout way, you can. Simply give your model a GPS
location on Google Earth and go from there with various, easily
available, climate/RH tables.

It will also cast the correct shadow according to the month, day, time,
and the GPS location ... for real!

Reminds me of the floor to ceiling kitchen cabinet I built for our new
house in 1970. Made to exact measurements. Forgot that diagonal was
longer than vertical. Could not stand it up. Toe kick was removable so
after removing it and setting up cabinet and raising it up I could slide
toe kick in place.I learned that lesson. WW

stages.
