Here's the beginning of the window frame that will house the 1/2" laminated glass. It's just cheap pine.



The angles and tapers ripped on these pieces were difficult. I made a couple jigs and fixtures for my table saw and made them. This window is set at a 5 degree angle.





This little room is going to be called the "piano room". It's not big enough for one, but it's color scheme will be high gloss black lacquer and white. The flooring will remain a constant for the entire studio, using Williamsburg Cherry laminate flooring. It's going to be a very busy and detailed appearance. I don't like super bland rooms.



Glass set in with glazing tape and setting blocks as per the Rod Gervais window detail in his book.



The window set in.



It is tough to keep the glass clean with such cold weather. The windex just freezes.



At this point this is all the photos I have. It's been almost 9 months since the barn was standing. I will soon post some conceptual drawings and go back and edit my posts with a running total of costs.

Again, please feel free to ask me questions and make suggestions!

Neil
