Pics of new plexiglass windows - 05/05/11 04:15 PM
Neat thing about this design are the hinges. They're cabinet hinges that have a nylon insert. They will stay at any position from closed to fully opened, and they make ZERO noise to open and close. Plus they open up and out of the way.
I used a fine tooth table saw blade to cut the 1/8" plexiglass, and 5/32 rivets to connect the hinges to the plexiglass. About $10 per window was the final cost. I also have exterior plywood windows for the offseason, so the plexiglass doesn't get scratched up by the elements.
Oh, by the way....the exterior windows had not been cut out yet when I took these pics.
