Finally finished it!

It took me at least a month but I finally finished my British phone box door for Sonia's home away from home/exercise room. *squees* Not bad considering I've never used a chop saw before, but it was practically blond proof and I still have all my fingers. The corners are mostly straight :)

LOLOLO I knew you'd approve *G* Just you wait, the Sherlock door is going to look even better. I should be finished with it in a couple of days, I just need to track down the hardware for it. If it was you, would you go with the traditional 221 or BBC 221 version? The door knockers are different :(

HUgs,

I'd go with the BBC version because that's the one I'm obsessed with. Also, there's this wonderful page that tells you exactly where to get many of the props from the tv show, including the numbers and door knocker (scroll down): http://wearsherlock.tumblr.com/tagged/found_in_221b

*squees* Thanks babe! It was a toss up between the phone box and the Tardis, but I think I made the right choice :)

Oh my god. That is amazingly cool. You rock SO HARD.

I can't believe you did this. Wow.

I can't believe it either! It was so hard getting everything squared, and level. Taking measurements properly isn't my strong point, usually I just wing it, but with this it had to be as accurate as possible.

Thanks,
Dix
