Chairman's Award: Chairman's Award - Issue reason: Your outstanding contributions to this community have not gone unnoticed. IN my view you are a worthy recipient of the (rarely used) Chairman's Award.

This snippet is essentially how hundreds of thousands were taught - myself included. The only power tools being a corded drill and planer.

The expectation was, you should be able to hang eight doors in a day, excluding architraving. That includes cutting and assembling the jambs, packing and fixing them squarely into the opening (whether brick or wood), fitting and hanging the door, and fitting the lockset. If a door was slightly warped or twisted, you humoured it - not threw away. Clearance at the top was set with a pair of 20¢ coins.
