first 'real' woodworking project

hi everyone...
here's a link to my latest project - in process.... building a set of porch
doors to replace ones that were rotted out on my 130 year old victorian
house. i've done carpentry work around the house, and built the occasional
shelf, etc, but i consider this my first real woodworking project - probably
because i'm using mortise and tenon joinery. anyway, check it out if you'd
like, and any suggestions you might have will be appreciated....

The pictures were interesting. The red type on black background is
unbearable. Please change it to something readable and I'll read it.

Yep. I have a dialup connection and am in the country so I connect at
about 26 kBaud on a good day. So I didn't finish the downloading of
the photos.

A coupla comments tho. I cut the mortises first and then fit the
tenons. For a door, the tenons coulda (shoulda?) been longer.

Move those clamps holding the aux fence to the other side so than when
they come loose and drop off they don't get into the blade. (Don't
ask me why I say this.)
