Here is a photo of the old 3rd floor bathroom door from Machamux, purportedly the original front door of the (ca.1782) house, lockset perhaps from England. It is in Kyle's barn right now. It was very slightly bowed when we took it out of my storage unit, and it was a little humbling to realize that the bowing may have been caused by me leaning it against the wall of the storage unit, and not from any of the many many years it was constantly hanging and being used...anyway, it is resting in such a way that perhaps it will even out. The jury is still out on whether it can be used in a timely manner as the door of my little house, but it will appear somewhere, to be sure.

Thank you for commenting on my blog. I think this message is for anyone who comments, to let you know, in my case, that there is no knowing when, if, or how I may respond directly to your message!! To quote a famous wizard; "I can't come back! I don't know how it works!" And a famous poet, "We walk backwards into the future." Anyway, I have a feeling this thing is going to grow on me, so we'll be in touch, eventually. Thank you again.
