Cutting The Middle Door

(Method A)

Now that you've cut your bottom door, you're going to cut your middle door. This hole will also be 2 rectangles high, and 18 rectangles across.

Ok... here's the tricky part to describe. Easy to show you but tough to describe in words! Vertically it's going to span the hinge where the two front panels meet. So in other words, the top half of the door hole will be cut "one rectangle high" into the bottom of the top panel, and the bottom half of the hole will be cut "one rectangle down" into the top of the bottom panel. Does that make sense? It's really simple. I'm just not sure how to explain it in words! Again, as to the horizontal positioning of the door, that's up to you. Mine is pretty much centered and in line with the lower door. Once again, remember to carefully visualize or tape off which rungs make up the rectangular border of your door so you don't cut too many rungs. "18 rectangles across" means you're cutting 17 wires in between.
