My wife wanted an Ole Style Country Screen Door for the back of the house.
We checked at a couple home stores but the doors were cheaply built, so I decided to build my own.
It's a much smaller project than building a shooting range but it turned out well and the wife is happy. Now she wants one for the front door. Go figure.
So today I bought the lumber. I'll build the frame this week and then buy the hardware & trim.Total cost is about $200 and 4 days work.

Looks great, Greyhawk! Very nice job! Brings back memories of when I was a youngster and I would swing the door open, bail off the side porch letting the door slam shut. That was always quickly followed by my Mom yelling at me....

Nice work. Looks fantastic

Door #2, for the front of the house, is in the process of being painted. In a couple days, I'll add the screen & hardware, then hang it. I'm living with a happy wife. )

My Dad was the one that yelled at me. (Don't slam that door)
Now I can let it slam all I want. hehe

Good work Greyhawk. More skill needed than just scraping up dirt. Wooden doors look and are better than those metal thingys. Bye the way I need a door for my new room .....

Those doors bring back memories of my Grandmas house with the distinctive sound, of me pulling on the spring just to hear the Twang

I screened in my porch back in Ohio and installed a wood screen door.

Beautiful job Grey! I really miss the sound of a wooden screen door.
