broken win dow in a wooden frame Before you start make sure you re wearing a pair of good work gloves and If the glass pane is shattered grab onto it carefully and remove it from the frame by simply pulling it up and out of the glazing compound that holds it in the frame If the glass is just cracked do not break it out of the frame you could damage the frame by doing this Instead remove the glazing around the glass with a putty knife To do this prop erty start at the centre of the frame and work toward the comers HOME IMPROVEMENT TIPS Try to work the edge of the knife between the frame and the glazing compound The compound should pull easily out of its position Once it is removed pull out the glass When you have removed all the glass measure the frame from top to bottom and side to side The new glass should fit fairly tightly in the frame but about a 116 inch space on all four sides should be allowed for slight expansions and contractions of the wood After fitting the new glass into the frame you must use a putty- like substance called glazing to help hold the glass in the frame and prevent drafts The glaz ing compound is easy to use if you roll it into a shape that resembles a thick rope Press this into the window frame with your fingers then run a putty knife along the whole length of the frame to even it out If you are planning on paint ing the frame let the glaze set for about a week beforehand Good luck and remember if you need further advice or assistance pick up a brochure or talk to the approachable home Improvement experts at Beaver Lumber CROSS
