Dear All-
With the supply of excellent wood from Whitwirth Shop and my $99 Craftsman multisanding unit,
I am making good headway on my door wood. Heres the question:
My original door wood joints (never before apart) show a thin coating mottled, dried substance that is either a sealer or dried up glue. If glue, obviously not very heavily applied since when the screws were out, the wood sections came right apart- a good thing. Any thoughts on what the factory may have done at those joints?
I like the thought of rigidly gluing them but if they need to come out later...
Regards from Ohio

Mark & Group,
Originally the T series door wood joints were not glued together. We
glue the door wood joints on the tubs that we build, makes for a longer
lasting stronger door frame. Originally there was ample clearance
between the door opening & the door for the tub to flex & not effect a
rigid door.
