I was thinking about sliding doors the other day myself. I would like to
build Japanese style houses to go with my castles in the future. My idea is
to use stiff construction paper or card stock, cut it to door size and then
at the top and bottom behind the paper poke through a 1x1x4 or 1x1x6 piece
depending on the size you want. Then cap with the same size tile. It would
be a tile-paper-plate sandwich. It would then be a matter of making the
frame to hold the door. The paper would have to be stiff enough not to sag
or bend. I have no artistic bent to decorate the paper but stickers and
stencils might work. This is and untried idea because i thought about it
the other day and have not had a chance to try it. If someone else tries it
before me let us know how it turns out.
