How heavy is the door now?

It really looks great.

A masterwork!

Thanks Charlie, you can really feel it.
It feels like your opening up a strong room (safe) door.

Love it Jim. How  cool would it be to have a geared sliding lock mechanism (think bank door) with pin.

Way cool!

I'd like to get a steam whistle mounted on the outside and somehow connect it to a C02 or oxy cylinder under one of the desks in my steam room.
I made all the knobs and controls on the door turn able and the grandkids have a ball....they'd LOVE letting off a steam whistle!

They think its like a WW II submarine :)
