figgy Posted September 20, 2019 Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 Love the windows with the haunches on. Used to see them on all building sites, built into the walls while still wearing the pink primer. Shame more windows are not wooden anymore.

Used to see them on all building sites, built into the walls while still wearing the pink primer. Shame more windows are not wooden anymore. Over the last few jobs we have found the originals were pink primer. These were fitted like a sash window behind the front courses of bricks so the horns were left on. Ive heard a lot of councils are being forced into using wood as it’s environmentally friendly compared to plastic. We currently supply a local council in Birmingham with up to 500 doors a year in frames. 8 hours ago, ditchman said: trouble is with working with wood like that , is having to do it for someone else........you put your heart and soul into it...and every job you leave has a bit of you in it i wonder if clients relise that........... I think some do. The gate job has been messaging me a fair bit for pictures on the build as he’s that excited. It’s nice really. I like driving do the road saying I built that in one village locally I’ve built oak window on a house the above on another house gates idigbo windows oak front door more oak windows the village is only 80 houses so it’s kind of cool 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moondoggy Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 All excellent work. If you were nearer to me, I’d be ordering some oak windows and an oak door. I had a local company make me an oak stable door and frame recently. They made an excellent job of it, but it would be nice to give the business to a fellow PW’er. By the way, the guy who I used makes custom made gun drawers for 4x4’s. Have you ever made any, or even thought about making them as a side line?

Its nice to hear your using a local company Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mighty Prawn Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 TT gave me so much confidence in my DIY abilities I’m much less scared of hanging doors etc - granted some of them hang like a wobbly tooth but at least I had a go!
