5. The windows

Up until this part of my life I have never made window frames before. So the first step was ALOT of research and then trial and error. I now own a router, a miter saw and a table saw just to get these frames made. I’ve re-made all 5 of the mollycroft windows as well as the two existing side windows and two new ones for the “kitchen” area. This was fun/stressful/confusing/ emotional and over all very interesting. 

After finally getting all the window frames all made up I gave them a coat of primer and fitted them into their allocated vacant holes in the wagon. I then added in their new glazing, which was very satisfying as this means that the wagon is almost water tight.
