Why don't we just build a window, Part Three
Nick and Phil have been busy. They say it's going a bit slower than they thought, but since this is the first window, they are being very careful. A wrong cut on this project would be a huge setback.
Here's a picture of the profile of the stiles and rails:
Yesterday they finished building the frame of the window... okay I think it's really called the sash. For a great article about old windows, check out this post at House in Progress.Today I think they're working on the "frame", the part that the glass and sash go into. I think I need to study House in Progress' posts a little more and brush up on my window terminology. Anyways... here's a pic:
Great work, Nick and Phil! Today they are hoping to build the frame. My job is to research exterior paint with a lifetime guarantee and go get a quart of the primer. Has anyone used life-time guarantee paint? What kind? I need to make my decision fairly quick, but any input would be great.
I'll try to post another update after today's progress!
