Home made storage building window wall
It's time to begin framing up the walls of the new
storage building.
We decided to fill the wall that gets the most sun with windows
we've managed to salvage from a few different places. Thanks Bill B.
The landfill can be a good place to find used windows for a project
like this if you don't have generous neighbors who've cleaned out their
barn recently. New construction sites have also been known to provide
the frugal builder with discarded windows if you know where to look and
who to talk to.
