endless panes yet to go as i have started tackling my first church window. it's not one of the big ones but at 18 panes, it's still a pain. (ow!) it's slow going but as i become proficient with the blow torch - yes, blow torch - i hope that future efforts will go somewhat more quickly. after a day and a half of steady work, i have a frame that is fully stripped of paint and putty and even has one coat of paint. i should have a fully painted frame ready for glass by thursday. that's four days for one window, and it's not even one of the big ones! fortunately (?) i am only concentrating on the 6 kitchen windows for now.
in other news, finnigan is now officially an indoor/outdoor cat, although he definitely doesn't seem to stray too far from the kitchen door. and garbage cans.
