Finishing Technique Seen On Festool Video - Why Does He Do It That Way?
I'm interested in the finishing technique seen in this video at
exactly 2:00. https://youtu.be/lPHATvqaiBI AFAICT he is protecting the panel as he applies stain to the inside edge of the stile, presumably to prevent getting any more stain on the panel. I assume he stained the panel first so there is a bit of stained panel inside the groove of the rails and stiles, so why didn't he stain the rails and stiles before inserting the panels? I'll be doing something similar this weekend and I was planning to stain the uprights of this headboard before attaching them to the panel so I don't have to be deal with the inside edges of the uprights once they are attached. http://imgur.com/a/G7F38 Am I missing something? |

All I can say is oversight--"oops!" If finishing first need to tape or otherwise protect glue surfaces, but no reason not to finish all the edges/surfaces needing finished. Mayhaps this guy wanted to not get any inside the panel grooves, but I'd not worry over that or if decided didn't want it, use a dummy piece of ply/panel to fill the gap then. IOW, I think there is no good reason to have to do what he's doing there. $0.02, and I'm stickin' to it! |

I think he can do that faster than he could use a scrap of ply to fill the gap to do it before assembly. That might explain it. If he's done bunch of those, he's determined it faster and easier to do it that way. Personally, I'd be more concerned with the terrible stain matching/blotching. :-) -- -MIKE- "Playing is not something I do at night, it's my function in life" --Elvin Jones (1927-2004) -- http://mikedrums.com ---remove "DOT" ^^^^ to reply |

Personally, I'd be more concerned with the terrible stain matching/blotching. :-) Well, actually, my headboard staining won't match because the wood starts out as different colors and my daughter wants to keep it that way. In fact, on the outside edges of the headboard, every other board is cut short and a piece of "side grain" wood is inserted. These alternating pieces will take the stain differently and "not match". I did this on the bunk beds I built for the boys many years ago and my (now adult) daughter wants the same look. Thanks for the opinion on the finishing technique. I'll be doing mine separately as planned. |

He did not stain the inside edges of the "stiles" and rails because he did not want the finish to block the glue surface at the joints. I always tape off the section where the glue will adhere and stain and varnish the insides edges first. My experience is that a "little" bit of finish in the joint is OK but you want most of the joint to be bare wood against bare wood for the best adhesion. https://www.flickr.com/photos/lcb112...posted-public/ |

For an inset panel door, the panel is supposed to move freely, correct. Even when making a table with breadboard ends, you're not supposed to glue and if you do, you only glue a small section. So whatever that guy built, it's a solid wood panel & frame construction, meaning there shouldn't be any glue in that joint anyway.

If you watch the whole video, you'll see that he is building "barn doors". Probably for one of Leon's high end clients. :-) |

Referring to the other comment here rather than two postings, I personally wouldn't bother to make the insert as noted but even if did if has done a number of 'em, how long overall does it take to slice a 3" wide piece of 1/4" or whatever the groove is ply off a sheet and have it? I just don't see not finishing the edges at the same time as the rest of the piece, whether you finish individual pieces first or the whole thing at the end (which is asking for a gap line to show when the panel shrinks so that's not really a good option). |

Yes, either he has not figured out taping or he forgot. Staining after the fact as he is going will almost always result with dark stained corners and the corners are tough to get to. |

Every one look at the video at 2:00 minutes again. The joint that receives glue is the one between the mid rail and the stile that he is staining. You want glue at that joint, not the panel. You do not want stain where the rail and stile are glued together. |

On the video I'm watching he is staining the inside edge of the stile, in between a top/bottom rail and the intermediate rail, and on what appears to be door frame that is already assembled and glued. So, his operation does not appear to be necessary IMO, but I might be missing something in the original question?

Seems like an unneeded step to me, fer shure...plus, unless there was something unique about this one particular piece, he's got eight of those to do for every panel--that'll begin to add up even if not so much for the one... |

That sounds like you are assuming he stained the face of the stile before assembly. I was assuming, based on the fact that he was staining the edge after assembly, that he stained the face after assembly, then moved on to the edge.

He forgot to stain before assembly. 2. He has not yet figured out to tape the joint intersections and pre stain before assembly. |

Maybe he ran out of green tape. |

You don't often see them on bathrooms or bedrooms. Who cares, I say. Exactly.

I've installed one in a bedroom, and one in a home office. Decided after the last one that I will just pass on any future requests. This one is in the master bedroom. The now have kids, but, when recently asked how it was working out, they don't seem to mind the lack of privacy, so far ... I'm thinking the kids aren't old enough yet.

Just wait. https://goo.gl/photos/UK3c9Zr9HvorKERDA Nice work, as usual. I call them "exterior pocket doors." There's always an attraction to "old stuff" with interior decorators. Farm sinks, barn doors, shiplap, and all kinds of things that were done away with for good reason. As soon as these fads hit the shelves of Lowes & Home Depot is when I know they're on the way out. Like when the Gap starts stocking winter clothing in July. It's too late to be on the cutting edge, you're just on the bandwagon now. Don't get me wrong, I'll take their money. :-) -- -MIKE- "Playing is not something I do at night, it's my function in life" --Elvin Jones (1927-2004) -- http://mikedrums.com ---remove "DOT" ^^^^ to reply |

With a conventional door, that space in the corner would be useless. I'm thinking the kids aren't old enough yet. Just wait. Why would it afford less privacy? It isn't lockable? Seems a broom stick would solve that. ;-) https://goo.gl/photos/UK3c9Zr9HvorKERDA |

I'm not sure what you consider "often" but an image search for "barn door bathroom" or "barn door bedroom" will bring up a lot of different ways barn doors are used on both. |

My wife is an HGTV junky. They've used them for living rooms and kitchens but I've never seen them used on bathrooms. Bedrooms, maybe, in lofts or whatever. |

My wife is an HGTV junky. As is mine, which means I get a healthy dose of it also. ;-) They've used them for living rooms and kitchens but I've never seen them used on bathrooms. Bedrooms, maybe, in lofts or whatever. Directly from the HGTV website, from bedroom into bathroom. A two-fer! http://videos.hgtv.com/video/sliding...n-door-0208295 In addition, Jason (of HGTV's Fixer Upper fame) recently removed a pocket door from one part of a house and installed it, barn door style (with exposed hardware) in the bathroom. He surprised both Johanna and the homeowners. |

You don't often see them on bathrooms or bedrooms. In real life, I have only seen 2 sliding barn doors that I recall. One was on a master bedroom entry and the other I stalled on a master bath entry. Personally I do not like them. |
