Howdy! You'll recall that last time we were reseating the window pane (or I guess, in this case, actually installing a real pane) in the middle window. We found the frame to be separated at the corner. We tried to repair it with this aluminum welding stuff and accidentally overheated the aluminum and deformed it. We stopped while we were ahead. Or less behind? ;)
With fresh minds and bodies and a pop-up tent over our work area so we didn't have to compete with the rain, we fixed it! It's not as pretty as that first fix, but with some metal putty to fill in the gaps, it's "Better'n it was!"
I can't remember if I've talked about Maude's motto on here! Whenever we come up against something we're unsure of how to do, or something doesn't quite turn out as we'd hoped, we tell ourselves it's "Better Than It Was." Which cracks us up! ENDLESSLY. Because seriously, it's just NOT saying much! LOL

All new seals!

And window #3 of 8 is all done! We propped the window open while the caulk for the seals dried. Eventually, we'll get to fixing/replacing/whatever all of the internal hardware, but for now, at least these windows can latch shut and, as far as we can tell (LOL!) don't leak! Woot!
I'm kind of stupid excited to get the rest of the window panes reseated/replaced/resealed because they really do look SO pretty when they're all fixed up :)
Until next time! <3 Becca
