[@dpmakestuff]

The glass is perfect and it's going to look so good! I agree, I think youre using too much putty. It just need a little under the glass to stop vibrations and then 6-7mm on the other side to hold it in place. Cant argue with results though! Wenn weniger mehr ist, denken Sie einfach darüber nach, wie viel mehr MEHR wäre

[@matthewfolbre1635]

Make your bedding roll smaller about 6mm in diameter and place it closer the middle edge of the frame and don’t smash it down let the glass do that when you set it. When you do the fill on the opposite side it will lock the window in even though the glazing putty is still soft. You can install all of the glass after the frames are installed with no worries of the glass falling out.

[@victoriabaker4400]

Perfect! Geil!

[@dawnchesbro4189]

Exactly what I came to comment on. Pressing it down beforehand is capturing air bubbles between the putty and the glass. It'll cause adherence issues later.

[@negotiableaffections]

Best comment here. Oh, maybe try out different types of putty knife to suit your style of working it.

[@andreamalik2961]

Hi Laura, the windows are lovely but you need to use a LOT less putty. A tiny, thin worm of putty is all that is needed. You ought to have hardly any putty on the actual frame. Great first effort though.

[@martas9283]

If you're painting over linseed oil based putty, try to find linseed oil based paint (which uses turpentine as thinner instead of white spirit) so that putty and paint slowly harden together, otherwise the putty can pull the paint into wrinkles as it dries out further. With steel frames putty stays soft for a much longer time than wooden frames and it's probably a good idea to support the glass against sagging outward while the putty is still drying

[@r8edrv4fun65]

That makes perfect sense but what would you use to support it?

[@martas9283]

I'd probably wedge a lath across all three panes, a little away from the frame, then use three individual blocks to close the distance between the glass and the lath with just enough pressure to secure the vertical plane

[@christopherbedford9897]

Paint within a couple of weeks though or it will dry out and crack.

[@MotherBiscuitLover]

In America, that is called "glazing" a window. I was taught how to do it in a high school shop class that covered home maintenance skills. We did it with wooden window frames, there were these small metal clips that got pressed into the wood to hold the glass in place. The putty was more to make it weather proof.

[@Geordiehux]

Love the yellow glass in the centre. Remember to keep the glazing knife really, really clean and then we used to dunk in glass of water just before cutting the fillet. Also get the putty warm an dwell kneaded before running the beads into the frame. Yes you were using to much putty but better too much then not enough. :) enjoy your break.

Fix the frames in position first, you don't want to be breaking the glass Grab a handful of putty and feed it through your thumb basically scraping it onto the frame, press the glass onto the putty so you can see it seal all round, it won't fall out due to suction, make the fillet for the other side Might be an idea to watch vids on puttying in windows. ;)

[@michellebyrom6551]

This is exactly what glaziers did to replace broken windows when i was a child. Long before the term double glazing became commonly known. Its more of a faff working up a ladder than on a table, admittedly. Placing the initial putty and then screwing the frame into place might be the easiest way. Adding the glass in situ right away gives room to move with a drill for screws. Just a thought.

Translation for the poem at 1:20 (from Google Translate): "All people have to die, Except the old glazier, He is made of putty and shards, And the devil won't eat them!" If I were to take a crack at transcribing to preserve the rhyme: "All men must one day pass, Yet the Glazier, he escapes. Made of putty and broken glass, He is not to the Devil's taste." Or maybe: "All men must one day pass, Yet the Glazier, he stays out, Made of putty and broken glass, He would cut the Devil's mouth." The original rhymes "nicht" with "nicht", though, so I'm embellishing a bit here.

[@DickvanZanten]

Windowputty basically consists of a linseed paint base thickened with claypowder. It dries really slow because the linseed oil dries because of oxidation with the o2 from the air. Put in a thin strip on the frame, press in the glass and put a thicker strip on the top of the glass. Don't make it any wider than the windowframe and press it in with your fingers. Than cut it in a shallow triangular shape using the putty knife. That works best with the knife dipped in linseed oil beforehand. Success and have fun! Ps this is est done withthe windowframes fixed in place first. Love the look of those windows in place!

Using putty is the traditional way which we were taught years ago in a painting appreticeship. You would have to paint it afterward, making sure you covered the edges to make sure the putty never dried out. Nowadays, here in Canada, window companies use caulking, you can use a caulking gun, it's faster and easier (and therefore cheaper) and the caulk never dries out. Plus the caulk comes in a variety of colours. You don't want the putty to dry out because then it shrinks, fails too stick to the frame and falls out, with the caulk that's never a problem.

I love the fact that Laura and me are the same age (technically I'm four months older) but since I grew on the wrong side of the Iron Curtain, I know exactly what window putty is and how it's used, because we didn't get modern windows until the early 2000s, so I was old enough to have to replace by myself a window pane I accidentally broke before my parents got home... Also, window putty is indeed natural, it's made from powdered limestone and boiled linseed oil.

[@lem12000]

It helps to wet the putty knife with a bit of water (or just a little bit of spit). The putty is (origanally) mainly chalk and linseed, so it helps prevent the oily putty stick to the knife. That way it doesn't pull the putty away from the frame.

In wooden windows, you put down the first layer of putty, then glass, then glazing points. Then you finish with putty. You need something to replace the glazing points, as they are pushed into the wood, with a putty knife. You need tiny "L"-brackets, to screw to the frames. Without them, the panes can fall out, as the putty shrinks.

The putte is 100% natural, it is just chalk and lindseed oil. As a glacier from dennmark it was quite nice to see a novice have a try at kitte Ein fenster. The knife you have is actually a corner knife, it is only to make sharp corners. There is another knife for making the longer runs. You have to paint the putty, because it dries out and falls out. Actually traditionally putty does not work very well with metal, although it is traditionally used. I usually use a caulk for glass when putting it in metal frames. Traditionally the lindseed oil is sucked into the wooden frame and makes a connection that way. That is also why you have to paint it, so it does not say out. Lindseed oil based paint can also be restored just by rubbing new oil on it.

[@JoseFGonzalezPerez]

Window putty was used in Mexico up until the 80's, probably 90's in some parts of the country. I remember glass workers replacing glass at my grandmother's house and, as I recall, they used pretty much the same amount of putty as you would use silicon to mount glass. Those guys used a finger to apply the outside (visible) part of the putty, to have some resemblance of a reference. Best of luck with everything!!

The thing with Fensterkitt is that it never fully dries. The day it cures is the day it cracks and falls out :D original Fensterkitt only consists of linseed oil and chalk. Please only paint it with linseed colors. There is a black available. Also why we are on it - linseed colors can be used on any material. Wood, Plaster, Metalls, some plastics etc. So f.e. you can paint the wall behind the stove in linseed paint and have a washable wall. If the color gets dull just oil the wall with linseed. Also you can paint metals with linseed paint containing zink and have a colored and also rust protected paint on your metals. Can also be used as a rust prevention primer painting over it with a different color of your liking. linseed based products are amazing old tech.

I love that you just go for things. You are using quite a bit more putty than required. It doesnt hurt anything but may take longer to fully cure. You just need a pillow layer for the glass to lay on to prevent glass from touching metal. Regading dry time of 5 weeks, the clay portion dries faurly quick but the linseed oil in it needs to breathe a while to fully set, so dont paint it for a at least a few weeks or the oil inside may never cure.

We have windows on our garage that have been puttied. They are probably around 50 years old and are exposed to winters of -30 C and summers of +30 C. The putty is only now starting to dry out and we will need to replace it, but none of the glass panels have fallen out.

You all are the best! You absolutely deserve a break. Take care and hope all goes well.
