Open doors

Postby Decipher » June 18th, 2013, 9:54 am

Going to attempt printing and cutting out open doors. My doors are in terrible shape and the ones on ebay are just as bad as mine.

I'll post pics after I am done to determine if I pass or epic fail. :)

As a related aside to your endeavour I was wondering if anyone had any custom doors ready for printing and cutting out. I recently aquired some spare door bases and am too lazy to draw something new.

Well I created these double doors & magic portal for The King Under the Forest if you're interested. I've been meaning to get some spare bases and create some double door bases like yours as I really don't like the way I have fitted the double door into a single base.

@Road Warrior: You could have told me cutting around the circular parts was not going to be easy lol.

As you can see, I need a lot of work using an xacto knife, it looks terrible but with practice it can be done.

Scanned copy of one of my doors:

Terrible cut out of it afterwards: Embarrassing!

Go ahead and laugh, cause I am laughing with you. I can do better just need some practice.

I think I cut a square hole out of mine between the straight edges & then cut the curves with scissors. It's a double door so I imagine it was a lot easier than standard HQ doors.

Step Three, line up stencil to top of door.
Step Four, set fire to your living room.
