I just figured a exterior front door job.  What I would like to impose on this
great bunch of Groop is just a quick, rough estimate of what you think the
cost should be on this project.  Following are the steps I will be taking.  The
exterior side of the door is oak and the interior side is pine, both will be
refinished as per original.  There are 2 doors 8' by 39" each.  I also will be
doing a first class job, that is why they contacted me for the job. Travel
time will be next to nill.  They are about 4 minutes of the beaten track.  The
pictures I am sending aren't the best ,I couldn't get far enough back for my
camera to get a good shot but I hope they will suffice.  They are of both the
pine and oak side.  I would like to thank in advance any and everyone that is
willing to take the time to do this.
Thanks again
