Thank you so much!

Thank you for posting this video. It really helps with organizing the procedure. My question is, did you cut down the screws from protruding through to the glass, or is that what the thicker wood strips are for?

I'm happy if I can help. The hardwood strips must: 1) Ensure there is a sufficiently large distance between screws and glass. 2) The lower strips must be so high that the pane sits snugly in the lower and upper pane frame. Otherwise the glass will slide down and water will seep in from above.

@@ilonaschafer-simcic2470 , thanks so much! SO you didn't have to grind off the screws, just used the strips to have the glass go over them instead?

@@paulmillar4774 Hello Paul, I don't know how long your screws are. But remember the original screws back then were extremely short. They only protruded 1 - 2 threads into the frame. Your screws should be the same length.
