Measuring glass.
Think I've missed a bit out. Looking at the way the door was constructed,
the panel openings to the inside are a lot bigger to the inside than outside of the door. So to avoid seeing through the glass to the putty on the outside moulding, a wood strip appears to have been added to cover that up - with just a fillet of putty round the outside of it. That wood strip runs up to the original mouldings inside the door. And the top bit is a semi-circle which I've no wish to try and make again - as it is bound to break if I removed it. But what I dunno until the glass is removed is whether it goes behind this strip of wood. -- *Okay, who stopped the payment on my reality check? * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
