So last Saturday I was able to paint the doors. I used a Behr exterior paint with primer built in and it went down very nicely, just took a little effort.

Before painted, I lightly sanded down the front face of the texture 1 - 11 to get it nice and smooth with a belt sander. It's pretty rough when you buy it. This would look better, and make the paint go on easier...

I used some putty on all of the screw holes and little imperfections. Here they are, all prepped for paint:

Laid on the second coat nice and thick... came out pretty well:

This weekend I'm planning to head out there and paint the inside face of both doors. I have some hinges coming next week so the doors are on hold until then. I am going to try to start figuring out the small door in the other room and if I think of a good idea that is doable same day I will get started on it. Otherwise I will get going on the drywall mudding.... ugh...

Work sucks, otherwise this shit would have been done months and months ago.

Finished painting the other sides of the doors.

Did a couple errands and figured out a thorough plan for the small door. Just have to enact it now.

Ambly I know you're going to say this one is blurry.... so ... cameraphone. Deal with it.

This coming weekend I should be able to hang the big doors, as well as construct, paint, and hang the small door. That would be HUGE.... and I think it's doable.

Comin along nicely. What all is left? Just the floor, finishing the walls and hanging the doors?

I was wondering when you were going to bring this thread over. Glad to see it back up. I thought you were going to paint the insides of the doors white. Did you change your mind?

Great job, CEO! I'm a hobbiest wood worker myself so I appreaciate good work. The constuction of the doors looks very solid.
