Yeah that's the video I watched on YouTube. I was lost from the start but the fence gate latch and the hinged book look pretty cool. I think I could do that. The rest is well beyond me.
I also decided to do it as an out swing. The gap is only like 3/4 on each side before trim. A slightly raised trim will cut the gap down to an eighth. And it will save space inside the room. There are a few things that my friend will have to tidy up in the finishing. But it's pretty much good to go. She loves it and I got dinners for three nights so it's all good.
Total cost was less than $150. Plus a trip to Lee Valley and HD.
