Japanese "Shojii" screens

(Tried to paste a picture here. . .how do you do that anyway? I did a "copy" from Word and tried to do a "paste"here. No dice. Fooled around with "img" and still no luck)

I need to find a woodworker/craftsman who produces these Japanese screens. They are wood lattice work, arranged in rectangles and backed with paper. ( You see them in all the kung fu movies)

I need the sliding doors, as between two rooms, not the free standing/ three-fold kind.

Anyone come across a local workshop capable of producing these?

Exactly Randy. . only sliding doors rather than windows.

When you press reply to post look under where it says URL on the right hand side. Click on 'Upload pic'
Another box appears. Select browse and select the pic which you have save on your computer somewhere? I save it on the desktop to find it easily. Then click 'send' When you see it select 'standard' (small red letters) and that should be it. I hope so, that was off the top of my head.... :|

woodshop just up the road from bank of ayuthya(yellow one) on phetkasem road.its about 100m heading south.

they will be able to do it, BUT, you must take photos, and exact measurements of what you want. or they will do it how they think it should be. :D :D
