Stud Wall Nearly There!

[r.rain]

Hello All

Just about finished my Stud Wall which is looking a treat, however I am stuck again:

I have temporarily pinned the side door linings to the door studs and the door fits between them snug. Now what I cant work out is how I should cut the top part of the door lining. I have one of those kits that can adapt to 2 different sizes of door (Its a new one the correct size this time!) My problem is that if I cut it I will loose the tongue and groove joint at either end and be left with a =AC shape. Is this OK? I was thinking I could just glue and nail the top section into the side parts of the door lining and also nail it to the noggin directly above which would give it the strength.

Help appreciated as usual

Cheers

Richard

Have a read through this site:

get a good idea of what you need next.

There are 7 (seven) pages in the article which walk you through the whole process. You'll see the "NEXT" link at the bottom of each page.

Not so loud NP. I think he's forgotten to put sound proofing in the stud wall. :-)
