  1. Nice door, nice mystery.

  3. Hmmm...is this door number 1, then ? 🙂

  4. I like it: I always appreciate topics besides the standard... And a nice work, Derek!

  5. Looks really good.
    You've managed to create a really good impression of the materials, stone, wood and iron.
    Well done!

  6. Great work Derek - lovely tone on the woodwork and the door furniture!

  7. A door. But not just any door. A special door, by special request, built by an obviously special granddad. It looks great!

  8. Ooh, I like this. “I asked her why but she wouldn’t tell me”. The mystery is killing me.

    Just fantastic.

  10. Ah, well, I guess everone’s door has it’s own price, depending on what it is hiding/accessing. Some of us have small, plain doors. Some have ornate and complex portals. The price, I guess, depends on what’s behind it...

  11. Nice door. "When life closes a door on you...open it. It's a door, that's how they work
