Not really any thoughts as a business. One of the reasons my progress has slowed is we have been working on an order for large doors from a Seattle architecture firm. These are based on the doors we built for a carraige house on Whidbey Island. The client was taken to this Whidbey project and had to have a set for here gigantic barn on another island. Of the eleven doors, 4 are 6'-2" wide by 10'-2" tall and 3" thick. The remainder are more normal sizes, but 7'-6" tall. They need to be delivered next Wednesday and that's a real stretch as we still have 2 unfinished cabinet projects partially installed. What I'm getting at is I would be hard pressed selling woodies or kits for what I can make building millwork for waterfront estates from reclaimed lumber.
