I will get some more pics this weekend I am having the wood for the doors milled by a friend so. I should be able to put them together and install this weekend. I am planning on putting stained glass panels in the doors. Probally a little over kill but that is me. I think the metal stands will work well. It is lighter and not so bulky. Should have a lot more room inside the stand. Also you can add jack plates to level that stand alot easier. I didn't go that route since I have wood floors and I don't want to damage the floor. I used 1" x 1" square tube and skin then skinned it with 1/2" cabinet grade pine plywood.

Doors without Stained Glass Panels


Making progress just got the doors glued and installed with the hardware. I am planning on putting stained glass panels in the doors but I have to finish my french doors for my bedroom first.

Looks really nice Sandy. I'm really impressed by the quality. I can only imagine what it's going to look like with the addition of stained glass doors.
