Great room windows keep on truckin



Once the middle section was completed with blocking, sheeting and tyvek they started another side.


The word of the day was pump jacks, scaffolding and hangin on.....


While I am trading in the morning, they were working on gettin the window in.....and they did.


You can never look good 24/7 and crawling around up here is no exception I guess.


An interesting place to stand while waiting for the others to get ready to lift these windows in place...isn't IT?


But it can just be interesting to find a place to stand and brace yourself at the same time too.....


OK....it's time to set some windows....lift'r up boys.....


These windows average around 700 pounds and are about 50 square feet give and inch here and there....and most important they took 8 weeks to have made....SO NO MISTAKE....ROTFL


We even bought suction cups to help move them into place..


Using pump jacks worked out great to lift the windows in place....up on the right side...up on the left side.


Well it didn't take to long to set all 10 windows, now they have to finish blocking and nailing them in.........but WOW what a great looking set of windows.
