For some reason I want to make doors. Now I do need some doors, but that's not the reason I want to make them. Since I'm a rookie, and getting too old to acquire years of experience I want to jump right in. But I don't want to jump right in with mahogany. I was thinking of ripping good quality dimension lumber to about 1-7/8", gluing the factory 1-1/2 sides together, and planing down to the right thickness for rails and stiles. That way I won't cry too much when I throw away a door I've made; that plus a rail or stile made that way would be less likely to warp. At least that's my thinking.
Is this a dumb idea? You have a better idea?
