It was a bit of a learning process getting these windows out. It took all weekend to get the two of them out. I tried using the drill to cut through the brackets but that didn't work so it was down to a lot of fiddly hacksawing just using the blade.
The view from the kitchen was enlarged somewhat but that was only temporary. We asked Glen, our electrician, if he wanted to make use of the access to the wall cavity before the windows went back in so he came on Friday to do some preliminary wiring.
I picked up the cut-down windows from the glazier during the week so they went back in the wall today. Much quicker than taking them out.
The full resources of the Triton workshop were employed to create a reveal for the top of each window. These were required so that they could be fixed to the timber lintels. All that equipment for what are basically two pieces of wood with one rounded edge !!
So that's the result at the end of the day. Those of you with an eye for detail will have spotted the gap under the windows. That's tomorrow's job, back to bricklaying.
