    This was the first time I build solid wood windows that open and I am super excited about how they turned out! I used some Douglas fir that I have had kicking around for a while to build these and I can not wait to take these up to the property and get them installed. The only down side is I have to wait months to get the glass!!! Thanks for following the journey!

    I know you are Samurai, and vastly more experienced than me. I also know about "foreshortening" by cameras, but I still recoil in terror (nearly sloshed my Scotch out of the glass) whenever you reach over a spinning blade to retrieve a board. This is an observation, not an admonishment. I love your channel.

    …BUT always let the top rail/horizontal part of the window frame go through and use a hidden tenon to protect the end grain of the vertical rail from the water.
    Makes it all last a lot longer.

    Haha, I was already enjoying your video (nice shop, nice kit, and some nice woodworking!) when your two boys came in - I've just spent the whole of this last week in my own shop, doing a shelving unit for a customer, and my two boys have been visiting me. Like yours, they're at that perfect age when they're old enough to be interested in what I'm doing and young enough to be super impressed. Your video was like an echo of my week, but with an American accent, lol! Happy days, and best regards from the UK.

    My house has antique casement windows. The sash has a shallow groove routed along the length of the top and outside sides so any wind-driven will run out the bottom instead of pooling up against the frame at the top of the sash and finding its way in. If you end up having issues, you can add that with a hand router.

    Glue and sawdust: after the fact precision.
    Until the glass arrives, you can build some scrap softwood frames of exactly the same geometry, stick some transparent foil on both sides using double-sided sticky tape, and, depending on the transparency of the foil you use, you'll have a temporary replacement that's quite functional - thermally, air isolates almost exactly as the argon they put in window panes, it's just worse at sound insulation. You don't need an hour to build those temporary panes. Since they don't need to last more than a few months, you can even leave them unfinished.

    Hey Jess, instead of glass, you could consider polycarbonate (a.k. Lexan) This stuff blocks U.V, has insulating properties and will not break/shatter. In Australia it is also available with a tint to reduce glare which is probably not a problem so much in Canada. This material could be bedded in with Sikaflex or similar.. Cheers, Rob.
