Hard to believe maybe but my DIY skills have now advanced to planing a door! With the carpet and thick underlay, the door needed shaving back in the front room so that it would open smoothly. I borrowed a classic old tool from my Dad, that used to belong to my grandfather - and he passed on more than 40 years ago, so it's quite an antique. After a little adjustment to the blades and some hours carefully planing and re-hanging the door to check the fit, I think I have managed to do the job OK, for a novice!
