Perfectly good 40 year old elementry school is being torn down and replaced with new. So they had the clear it out auction.
Thought I’d go.
There were these heavy oak doors all thru the place upstairs and down.Some with small windows in the top, some solid. Heavy duty doorlatches all run off one master key.
Must of been about 40 of them. I ended up…choke…
buyin’ em all.
Got to thinking about Junkhound’s last shed thread.
heh heh
These suckers are heavy. Ought to make some meanazz walls and maybe a floor too.

Congratulations. I think. I admire you for taking the plunge, logic would have persuaded me to just watch and drool.
Now, what do you intend on doing with 40 freaking oak doors and where on God's green earth are you gonna put them until doing with them whatever it is you hope to do?
rez, gunner was asking about door prizes at the fest.......
edit: sorry nick, didn't push all the right buttons b/4posting. But since you're here, what are you doing the second week in August? Stop by rez's and help him load up a couple doors. The fest is a good time.

Cal,
I'll be an hour west of Columbus delivering my daughter to her second year at Cedarville - a week after the fest. Finances preclude making two trips, or leaving here a week early - just too much business to do. Had hoped they would coincide, but twas not meant to be.
But thanks for asking. I'm sure it'll be great.

I don't know.
They are still hung and have to be out by 4 PM tomorrow. Gotta haul some down from the second floor too. Did I mention they are really heavy suckas.
I ended up spending less than a buck a door. The real costs occur tomorrow when I gotta move them. 16 year old nephew enlisted for a few hours so I think I'll make it.
Guy I know bought a wheelchair lift there that hooked on a rail and moved up and down the stairs between the two floors. Pretty cool thing but I'd hate to see the costs involved for purchase and installation of the thing when new. Wasn't put in that awful long ago.
He bought it for

for
the fun of it. I can't tell ya how much.
ok.
$50.
be a bunch of glass faced school clocks.

Take the hardware off, and the slabs are probably not more than 1 3/4" thick. 40 of them would be a tad under six feet by the size of a door. So it's not all that big a storage issue. Let's see, I could put 'em .... no, that's all filled up .... hmmm .... ;-)
