Making Frame and Panel Doors by Hendrik Varju
Passion for Wood, 2014.
$94.95 Cdn; 9 hrs, 22 mins – on 5 DVDs
We have a winner!
Hendrik Varju recently released another DVD. Making Frame and Panel Doors is his latest and as with all the others (14 in all) it covers a lot of ground. The DVD starts with a chapter on designing a frame and panel door, followed by a chapter titled “Order of Operations”. This covers all the steps involved in building a door including sanding and finishing steps. In the next eight chapters Varju shows you how to make the door – from stiles and rails, to raised and flat panels, and ends with the glue-up. Finally, the DVD concludes with a chapter on finishing the frames and has bonus footage for a butt hinge jig as well as door and hinge installation.
At almost 10 hours, the DVD provides a lot of important information, and as in his other DVDs you’ll learn the techniques in real time. Varju doesn’t cut out important steps so it’s like having “Private Woodworking Instruction in a Box”.
Lucky isawitall is the winner. His comment was chosen at random.
And he says:
What a great series. Each of the 5 DVDs were extremely well done. Hendrik goes into depth at all the right places. And the finished products are handsome and creatively done. Great inspiration for my next project! Thanks Hendrik!

Looks good.
I'm always looking for expert help!
Fear of frame and panel doors has held me back from remodeling my kitchen. I was going to buy the doors until a friend said, "If you do that when people comment on your work you will forever have to say, "Except I bought the doors...'"
I need help. This DVD would be a great place to get some.
This looks like a fine tutorial. Pick me to win!!

This DVD set should well worth the price. I'm sure many of us have created some expensive fire wood from costly mistakes that could have been avoided.
This would be a perfect addition to my library in helping me to make Frame and Panel Doors
count me in
Yes, please.
Any help would be welcome
just finished some flat-panel doors. It would be nice to learn a raised-panel technique.
10 hours of tv that's legit
Sure would like that!
Sometimes videos give you tips you would never glean from just reading a book.
Have a pocket hole system and never really used it... Maybe this could be my solution...

I am beginning to make a lot of furniture for our home. I have a lot of trouble with installing the hinges and squaring the doors. Also would like to learn to make some "fancier" doors.

This would be a great Christmas present to me!
Looks like another great instructional video by Hendrik
Thats a lot of video
I recently purchased and watched his Making Drawers video and he is extremly detailed which is something that I appreciate.
I have made a number of frame panel doors which have warped over time. This sounds like it might solve my problems and get me to make better doors.
Being relatively new to making frame and panel doors, the ability to see it done with an expert explaining the process is fantastic. Thanks for offering a chance to win one.

More information on how to do anything sounds like a good idea to me.
Can always use tips from the experts to make woodworking a bit easier.
Looks like a great DVD! Should be my next project!
Anything that makes the process easier has got to be a big help. Looking forward to it.
Anything that would help to make this process more efficient, I could definitely use.

I've looked at his website. He has many dvds. Most of the reviews I've seen are positive. This one should be good also.
9 hours of dvd instruction could prevent years of looking at a small mistake, thinking "if only...".
Sign me up!

Looking forward to the insight shared within.
If you saw my doors, you'd know I need this DVD.
Always looking for more information ...
I need it more than those other guys
I was drawn to this video series from the Fine Woodworking homepage. Although I’ve never viewed any “paid for” video from this provider, I did look at one of his sample clips:
http://passionforwood.com/woodworking/dvdpreview-making-frame-panel-doors.htm
I was astonished to see the lack of quality of his video streaming. You never get a second chance to make a first good impression. I will not be making a purchase.
User, I don't stream my videos over the internet. So the short video clips you see on my website say underneath them: "Video quality reduced for web preview." So that is not the quality you see at all when you purchase the DVD sets, which are available only in a physical format.
You might like to read some of the reviews from people who have already purchased these DVD sets to get a sense of their quality.
Cheers, mate!
Great. Parece realmente útil.
Thanks for sharing
