The Famous Star Trek door
Bill Grupp put two TWO Congo backbox decals nicely centered on his door. Well, I knew I had bunches of ST:TNG decals and decided to one (or several) up him. That’s how the door was created.
Years later we were all laid off. While many of us were still gathering and boxing up our stuff. Ken Fedesna in passing and I am sure half joking said "Dwight I am surprised that you didn't take your door with you". Well I took that to mean I had permission. I told the story to Jim Patla who agreed it must mean I had permission and Jim gave me a property pass so I could get the door out of building.
When I finish my basement someday I plan on using it, maybe.
Some areas needed filling due to splitting and delamination from the original cutting and drilling. I use trade Polyfilla One Fill - a weird light-weight filler that is easy to work, can smoothed so flat it doesn't have to be sanded and can be overpainted after 15 minutes if not too thick! Tough and doesn't shrink, I've used it indoors and out.
