Bump in the Night: Building an Oak Window Frame Without Loosing Sleep - Our French Renovation

Подробнее о видео

The recent change in weather brought a nasty surprise; a window including it's frame was blown in with a earth shattering boom. Not exactly what you need in the middle of the night. Our only option was to prop the 150 year old rotten remains back into the hole until we could make a handmade oak replacement.

Having never trained in woodwork, with few tools to my name, making an Oak multi-pane window, at short notice might seem like a tall challenge. However, I'd been planning to replace these windows for nearly two years, so in theory, everything would be fine. How hard could this woodworking lark be?

Yep.... really hard.

Elsewhere in the house, cluster flies had again started to amass on the windows. So in readiness for next winter, we have been re-mortaring and re-plastering the walls. Every possible crevice and gap that they could squeeze into is being sealed.
