Repairing 30-year old Redwood Deck Cabinet - Part 4

15 days ago

This video series shows how I repaired the 30-year old redwood deck cabinet where we store our emergency generator. The doors were built with high quality redwood & outdoor plywood. Over time, the outdoor plywood, rotted away even though I stained it.

The redwood was still in great shape, I decided to replace the plywood with some scrap 2x4 redwood left over from 30 years ago when we built the deck. That redwood was in good shape. Some pieces were too short, so I used my biscuit joiner to combine pieces into one solid piece.

Part 1 explains the project and the removal of the doors.
Part 2 covers using the biscuit joiner to connect two pieces of scrap 2x4 redwood so (combined) they are long enough.
Part 3 covers sanding the back of the old redwood (where it was glued to the plywood) and assembling the doors.
Part 4 covers test fitting the doors, staining them, and the final installation.
