Old windows get damaged by the weather. Most often this is from the wind blowing on them constantly, and this project was to fix two pieces in a window caused by this very problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Crack number one. A piece of heavily textured clear glass.<\/p>\n

The lead is 10mm on three sides and 5.5mm on the fourth side. \u00a0So, this fix was a little tricky. Fortunately the lead was in reasonable condition.<\/td>\n

Crack number two. A piece of textured yellow glass.<\/p>\n

The lead around this one was not in very good condition. I had to be careful not to treat it too roughly or it would break. That would mean I’d have to rebuild the window; not on my list of todos.<\/td>\n

I could not get the right glass (no surprise there I am afraid). \u00a0So I used a more modern version, with enough texture to fool the casual glance.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n\"landingrepair2\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
I could not find the right yellow glass, either. Again, just using something similar will not be noticed by anyone walking past the window.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n\"landingrepair3\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The result is not too bad. I would have preferred an exact match with the glass, but it doesn’t notice too much and I have made a mental note to redo the entire window at some point anyway.<\/td>\n<\/td>\n\"landingrepair4\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
