The Door and the Promise!

To live in this family requires patience. A piece of plastic is not really a door but it was to us for over two years. I just stapled more sheets when the wind threatened to blow in too much snow or the birds found their way to their winter oat.

We wanted to have a door like the original, but steadier and propositional with the veranda. 

With this super machine we have planed a lot. It is an old Casolin planer, made in Italy, I guess one of their oldest models.

The helping hand...

The lunette window is still waiting for its turn to be painted and glassed, but we were lucky to be the last customers of the Rintala & Rintala and being very happy with their work got a pair door before they retired.

We are looking for a lock like this now, this one suitable for a door to be opened from the left side, we'll save it for the new sauna-laundry cottage.

I make promises every New Year - this year I am going to close some doors and find new to open. I probably need some keys as well.
