Yep.
Propane burner, fire brick oven, bfh, anvil and away we go. Then I cut the parts and Tig Weld together....
I also made pulls but we decided to go with push latches, which have improved greatly in recent years. The spring mechanism is now built into the hinge and the catch is a simple magnetic deal.
Wire brush finish, trimmed, drilled and tapped...
Like I said, ridiculous amount of work...
