Crazy dogs swinging on swings and enjoying it!

Cute: Showed it to my kittie, Charlotte, and she watched so intensely as I told her "dogs" which she loves but she was just watching because I asked her. Mommy nuts. Anywho, those dogs look very happy on the swings that were moving pretty fast.

Can a Door swing OUT (exterior) in New England weather?
Q
Comments (28)
Interesting Buffettgirl. Post Cocoanut Grove fire, swing-out is mandatory on all public buildings, nationwide I believe. (In 1942, hundreds of people fleeing a fire in an elegant Boston nightclub crushed up against inward-swinging doors that then could not be pulled opened inwards against the crush. Nearly 500 people died. Accounts are absolutely horrific.) Why then should it be against code in Massachusetts on private residences? (I'm not doubting that you are correct, I just think it curious, even ironic, that it should be so. A puzzle.) It's probably not the primary exit anyway though, so that should probably not be a problem for Huango. I think, Huango, if you have a storm door, that pushing two doors outward wouldn't work (from inside you have to push the inner one open to get to the outer one, but there's no room ...). And depending on where the snow drifts, the door might get snowed in (or maybe that's not a problem if you don't use the deck much in winter). Or you could build a wind screen or overhang to divert the drifting snow. But otherwise? Obviously, check the code, but if it's the only reasonable solution, even if it's a bit odd, do it.

Changing door swing direction from out to in
Q
Comments (9)
Olychick the pantry doorway is larger than the rest of the wall space available so a pocket or barn door won't work in this case, unfortunately. There are 34" between the linen closet and vanity. The door itself is 26.5", so there should be plenty of room to get in and out of the bathroom. @cat_ky, Susie ., kudzu9 The door is 26.5". I don't believe they sell prehung doors in that size. If I were to find one, I'm not sure that would actually be easier. The frame and trim are all fine, I'm just looking to change the swing direction and replace the door slab itself. Rehanging a slab in the existing frame and patching old hinge and latch holes seems like less work than pulling the entire frame out, putting a new one in, and then adding trim. A lot cheaper too :) As I mentioned in the original post, I've replaced/rehung door slabs so I'm confident in my ability to size and hang a door properly. I'm mostly just looking for advice on patching the old hinge and latch holes and tips on replacing the door stop moulding since the current moulding is beveled on one side so it won't really "stop" the door properly once flipped.

No need to worry Hazel. We like seeing your work and it might even get us to try them over again. So you post anything you want to post.

That's right what Judy said.
You do what you want. Makes NO difference.
There is NO rule about doing repeats or not.
I LIKE repeats to see your version AND it is so easy to post one already done? :)

Man I don't remember where it came from or anything but you could do your name anyway you would like and then do it so the animated swing part is hooked to it instead of what it is hooked to in the tut.

Thought I might have the tut laying about somewhere, no luck, did the animation some time ago, just revamped her and gave her a background.
