build custom wood window

May 28, 2006 3 Replies

Hello -



Are there plans to build the actual wood frame of a wood & glass window? I want to build 10 windows for my screen porch. 60" x 24" and



60" x 30". They will install from the inside, set into the framed area for the window.

Thanks for any help.

Operable, or just fixed windows?

If it's the latter, just make a picture frame out of 5/4 stock with a rabbet on the inside edge, then point and glaze it.

I've made one, and learned you can make a cut smooth as butter through a std. plated #8 screw with a descent carbide bit (Frued). Not a scratch on the bit either.

while you're at it, you may want to see if you can source gas filled low e sealed edge glass rectangles. Maybe from a low priced factory.
