I was on my way to the house last week when I was actually thinking 'wow, i have a really nice commute now, 15 minutes door-to-door, and I drive through a quaint pastoral town filled with horse farms and barns and at that very moment a buck ran by---awwwww perfect!
later, at "the office"
yup, that's me getting ready to sand the exterior sills in 40 degree weather. I think I heard the neighbor's dogs snickering.
so, we are trying to preserve the existing exterior window sills- they are quite weathered (sorry, no before pic-but they were grey and cracked), but after a good sanding and filling, they look 'almost' new.
pay no attention to the types of terribly bad-for-you snacks that we keep at "the office"
some sills are beyond repair, and will have to be replaced.
i pulled that chunck of sill off with my hands.
so here is the test/mocked up window. with new replacement window, new pvc brick moulding and existing sanded/painted sill.
i still need to caulk all the exterior joints, but its TOO COLD TO CAULK!
thank goodness for low temperature paint.
not a perfect sill, but much better than where it started!
