Bay, those are exactly what I need for a couple of gates of mine...will be scrapping for the wood to make something smaller and similar to those for sturdier gate closures.
Excellent job, BTW! Want to post the YT link on those?

Hey those are going to look nice, are you going to paint them or just let nature do what she will with them. 1 vote for just putting them up like they are and let them fade naturally. It will match that awesome old tin siding you have.

Just let it weather. The 1x6 came off the cull rack at Lowes. It was split and boogered up in the middle, but since I wanted pieces, it didn't matter to me!
I do want to paint the doors. Got any ideas? It's dusty in there.

Barn red if you want it to stand out. Forest green if you want it to blend in. Those are the only two I'd even consider.

What color is your dust? Paint the doors to match.... LOL Dad was a rural mail carrier and always bought his vehicles to be closest to dust color so they did not ALWAYS look filthy!

Second vote for barn red...even when it weathers it looks good! Thanks for the vids, Bay...will be building these as soon as I clear up a million other projects I'm far behind on.
