Bifold Doors

Here to talk two things: Painting these doors, and something I could do to “modern” them up. Painting- I’d like a smooth factory finish with brush strokes. What has everyone done in the past when painting their products? I’m not a fan of brush strokes, roller dimpling, or spackled unsmooth spray jobs. Is it because I’ve been using cheap rollers and brushes this whole time? Modernization- I think painting them white will help, but was wondering about adding some trim pieces to make them look like barn doors or something?

Which one?

Looking for opinions/recommendations on whether to start out with a jointer or a planer for squaring up rough cut wood. I am really starting to get rolling on some building projects I have always wanted to try which will require multiple glue ups with different types/species of wood. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated on where to start. Thank you! Picture of first project completed with outrageously expensive Douglas Fir.

Just installed the mantle last night. Is that something I have to topcoat/seal? See comment for more explanation.

The mantle is made from solid cypress. It’s only sanded right now but love the color as is for our house. I tried several finishes on the backside of the beam for tests but they all darkened the cypress drastically and I didn’t like the look of it. Is it okay to leave as is? Thanks
