Then, next week I could think about making something...lol. <br /><br />I could handle a hammer. The result of a hammer in my hands near glass would be disastrous. Actually, putting the whole thing together without glass would be what I would do, then insert glass.

How obvious it sounded that I was expecting you to unload WINDOWS!!!!<br /><br />If you would accept something on a much smaller scale, I think you could manage with my suggestion. The TRICK is to use photo frames!!! They already have glass in them. They can be connected to each other using wood glue and strong (STRONG) adhesive tape since you could never hammer a brad, or push a staple into the backs of the frames.<br /><br />The Dollar Store sells very cheap pictures in glassed frames. ($1 to $2) You just pop the photo OUT, and you have little "WINDOWS" to start your project!!lotta joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742978845913126675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-5243355861057711572013-10-06T23:01:41.846-05:002013-10-06T23:01:41.846-05:00lotta,

This would be too hard for me until I get a bit of surgery on spine, knee, and shoulder. Even getting each of those windows in he trunk would be difficult. I can figure it out. The saw was sold, but if I can find the materials, that will be the key. I am not the scrounger I used to be. I am sure you understand.
