I'm just planing a new door to fit into it's new frame. It's been sat inside for about a year, so if anything I guess it will have shrunk slightly. The door and frame are made from Sapele wood. What sort of gap should I have round the door to allow for any movement and so I don't have to take it off and re-plane it? At the moment I have about
1mm all round. Thanks.- posted
