This is a level of skill fading rapidly in the USA along with common sense. I admit it is a little scary in some places even bearing in mind the accelerated motion, but still it is very hard to find videos that illustrate the entire process from beginning to end. I just wish I could find something similar for double hung casement windows which I now have to make for my circa 1915 Colonial home. I would pay well for something like that and/or a video illustrating 6 pane divided light double hung windows . Hats off my friend, you are a true craftsman. Be careful of your fingers.
I was about to post it after 30 seconds watching. I was also mentally prepared for the piece of wood getting catapulted by the blade while he is walking around.
Of course he has 10 fingers, it's only brain cells that he is lacking. No push-stick, no guard, no savvy. Never mind all this POLITICAL video banning and de-monitising, CZcams, how about abject IGNORANCE and DANGER as a reason...
That is an awesome sander.. would love to build a wide belt sander like that someday that had a more permanent/flat platen all across than the by-hand one you are using but that is a very cool design nonetheless
He's using what we used l o n g before health and safety reps - common sense! Besides its the health and safety at WORK act. If hes at home on diy the rep can have a day off, bugger all to do with him!
Your workmanship is excellent, I understand about the safety standards in your country. I've worked in both Greece and Turkey and it's the same there but you can lead the way and set the example for others by making your workshop clean and safe. God bless and keep up the good work. Thanks for sharing your video.
You're talking about my uncles. Of the four there would be thirty-five fingers and thumbs between them. I'm in my seventies and my son-in-law and his three brothers are all journeymen, with a total of forty fingers and thumbs ... one is known as "Safety Sam". His company, a major contractor, is purchasing Saw Stop table saws because it's cheaper to have the machine repaired than the loss of time and wages for an injured carpenter, plus the time and expense of all the paperwork involved by the supervisors for the insurance companies.
Can you give any guidance on what kind of window hardware you used, I can't seem to find anything like what you used. I appreciated the simplicity of that hardware.
You should start your own business and make window kits and sell them. I would buy several of those. Here, in America all you get is crap now. We used to have good quality products, but now everything is made cheaply and never lasts. Not like your window would. GREAT JOB!
Thanks for such a great video. I watched the video many times it's very difficult to detect the details. I will appreciate if you kindly let me have the measurements or photos of the individual parts. Thanks
Watching this man is hypnotic and yes it’s a bit nail bitting with his fingers around the saw but I would imagine he’s had years of experience and knows his boundary’s.. really can’t be doing with all you do-gooders! Why can’t you just watch the man and shut up.
Because Elisa he is showing inexperienced woodworkers how to work in a shop. His experience is remarkable in building a window, but his third world safety standards are atrocious. I have been a professional woodworker for 43 yrs and I was trained in both high school and college courses. I have had one serious accident with a table saw in all that time and that was after 30yrs experience, a simple mind fart. I have a friend who was 50 yrs old when he lost three fingers working on a jointer without a guard like this guy is doing. It happened in a second, he had removed the guard 25 yrs ago. After he got out of the hospital he put the guard back on, but as they say he "closed the barn door after the horses were gone" I'm not a safety troll, but this is the most egregious working style I have seen in years.
Veteran cabinetmaker for 30 years, I also work without guards. They just get in the way! Less dangerous working without them. I still have all ten, it’s all about paying attention
Great work. How is it waterproof? Doesn't the water get between the glass and frame? I'll be making one similar soon and this is one of my worries. Thanks for a great video and any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Nice work I would like to know where can I buy pats for the windows like hinges handles and all the parts I appreciate it I want to build my windows myself
First time viewer and as I sat here watching I looked at your name and thought...how perfect to let the "wood" do the talking! I'll be back! Great job, you are an artist!
I like the simple look of the sash overall. Nice work. Never seen a hinge that opens like that. Only thing I have to say is get some push blocks and feather boards. You made me nervous watching your hands around the jointer, shaper and tablesaw
Great work and skill! I only wish I could figure how to do that with simple powered hand tools! Funny how so many people focused on what they could find wrong? Human nature?
Andy Chernak you can use half lap joints, these can be done with a handsaw and chisel Make the frames, glue with d3 pva glue, square and drive a few short nails through the joints, the nails will act both as clamps and as safety belt in case the glue fails Make sure that you have about 2mm space between the frame and window After you applied silicone, take a rag, wet it slightly, fold in 4, then drag it over the silicone, it’s going to leave your hands clean, but more importantly, the silicone bead will be perfect When using silicone, make sure it’s uv safe, otherwise it’s going to fail after 1 summer, the good ones rated for exterior applications can withstand -50 to +180c, they smell nasty, anything it comes in contact with is compromised
You can do literally everything here with nothing but a saw, chisels, tape measure, pencil, square and a marking gauge. Cheap, it only takes time and effort
however with all the old cool tools i see you certainly know your way around your shop and you know all the safe zones of your tools being a master as you are be careful
I am not a carpenter but I thought the same. The window making video and lesson are GREAT, no comments about that. But while watching the video I thought there were plenty of situations in which accidents and very severe injuries (even death-causing injuries) could have happened. For example, there is a bit where he drills holes in the wood, pushing the power drill towards himself. If the drill would have slipped, it would have gone right through his belly, God forbid. Worse than a bullet.
It's a pad sander, some of the better ones have a pad suspended on rails above the bed you pull down with a handle to apply pressure, i sed to use one when sanding boards flat whilst doing my cabinet making apprenticeship
Beeauuutifulll!!! Outstanding job! You saved me alot of work. Im gonna go buy windows! Just kidding I need to make 2 alike but no shaper, I dont suppose I could get by with my router? Is it a must have?
Probably not the exact design, but everyone wondering about those window hinges; I looked up 2 way window hinge and found something call a "Tilt and Turn" window. Seems to accomplish the same thing. Good luck!
Wow. Makes you appreciate a window frame. I love the old school shop, exactly as I remember workshops from my childhood, just across the border.

.... a 6 frame double hung, 3 glass layer window-video would be nice.
I'm amazed he's still got 10 fingers...
Same...
I totally agree ....man that was scary at the jointer

Sure....but can’t deny the skill and workmanship of what is a dying trade in the world of stainless Steele and alloy. From the old school, nice work.
WOW! What a nice shop!! When I saw SIMPLE window making I just figured a chop saw, drywall screws and some Gorilla Glue... SHEESH!!
you are an absolute master of the window bulding realm. Thank for showing us how its done.
All I can say is wow. Beautiful product and a handy set of shop tools to boot. Looking forward to checking out all of your videos. Thank you.
That is an awesome sander.. would love to build a wide belt sander like that someday that had a more permanent/flat platen all across than the by-hand one you are using but that is a very cool design nonetheless
That is an awesome window! High quality and will last 100 years.
Dude my health and safety rep would have a heart attack watching you work
My thought exactly!
I thought the same. How does this guy have any fingers left?
This how it was done for decades.
He's using what we used l o n g before health and safety reps - common sense! Besides its the health and safety at WORK act. If hes at home on diy the rep can have a day off, bugger all to do with him!
Congratulations on still having all your fingers! Some lovely machnes there.
Your workmanship is excellent, I understand about the safety standards in your country.

Thanks, I really doing my best...
Voice of wood good on ya mate. be careful in there. your work is excellent

I just built my own window sashes and thought hey I roughly followed what you did, however I wish I had the tools you did to do it!
I would love to know what kind of hardware was used to connect the window in a way that allowed it to open 2 ways.
Incredible what can be made by being industrious even in one of the worlds most dangerous shops. Clean that thing
Posted in 2016... And STILL one of the BEST window videos on CZcams
Mercy! That was anything but simple!
..thankyou for posting.Incredibly unsafe procedures at times but very useful.
Great video...now I'd love to try it but I'm thinking you just made it look easy.
Hello Sr you have done a great job
It would be good to know how much expansion space you leave between the glass and wood frame.
I work with glass and windows. Typically 1/8”- 3/16” all the way around and you want to set the glass on rubber blocks.
Very nice done. But I think you really should wear a mask for wood dust.
Dude that was amazing! You are killing it Bro!👍🏼
Can you give any guidance on what kind of window hardware you used, I can't seem to find anything like what you used. I appreciated the simplicity of that hardware.
You should start your own business and make window kits and sell them. I would buy several of those. Here, in America all you get is crap now. We used to have good quality products, but now everything is made cheaply and never lasts. Not like your window would. GREAT JOB!
Amazing!
...and that killer sanding set-up!!!!
Nice work.
Where did you get the hardware and what is the mechanism called?
How you still have all your fingers is a mystery! Nice work though.
This is great, but I wish there was more explanation.
Thanks for such a great video.
I watched the video many times it's very difficult to detect the details. I will appreciate if you kindly let me have the measurements or photos of the individual parts.

Odlično navodilo,ki se ga bom držal-samo da kupim stroj.Hvala Igor
😊 old Sokol, safety for kids, lol.
Really nice vid
Yes.. so simple . Can't wait to buy all the necessary instruments to build one simple window. Even for him it wasn't simple.
Beautiful Work! Thanks for the great video!! Spasiba!
Who tf is hitting all the dislikes? Mofos shud be glad of tutorial vids like this from excellent tradesman.
Veteran cabinetmaker for 30 years, I also work without guards. They just get in the way! Less dangerous working without them. I still have all ten, it’s all about paying attention

Amazing, thank you for share :)
Nice work I would like to know where can I buy pats for the windows like hinges handles and all the parts I appreciate it I want to build my windows myself
Thank you for sharing. Could you tell me where did you buy the hinge in your video?
First time viewer and as I sat here watching I looked at your name and thought...how perfect to let the "wood" do the talking! I'll be back! Great job, you are an artist!
Thanks. I have a couple of stained glass panels I want to build into a wall. I got some key ideas from this video.
I guess in Croatia there is no such thing as OSHA - the window mechanism was very interesting.
Odlično!!! Excellent!
Beautiful work 👏
Simple?! Eh.. no chance I’m making that 😂 that’s a work of art 👌🏻
I like the simple look of the sash overall. Nice work. Never seen a hinge that opens like that.
Only thing I have to say is get some push blocks and feather boards. You made me nervous watching your hands around the jointer, shaper and tablesaw
Damn music man. The sound of machines should have been okay.
Surprised he has all ten.
But a nice job.
I need some thin sawdust, nice job!!!!!
Great video, awesome shop and superb craftsmanship, Thank you

Where can I get those kinds of latches to open the window horizontally from the side and vertically from the bottom?
Where can I buy that nice big and wide
belt sander?
Great work and skill! I only wish I could figure how to do that with simple powered hand tools! Funny how so many people focused on what they could find wrong? Human nature?
Andy Chernak you can use half lap joints, these can be done with a handsaw and chisel
Make the frames, glue with d3 pva glue, square and drive a few short nails through the joints, the nails will act both as clamps and as safety belt in case the glue fails
Make sure that you have about 2mm space between the frame and window
After you applied silicone, take a rag, wet it slightly, fold in 4, then drag it over the silicone, it’s going to leave your hands clean, but more importantly, the silicone bead will be perfect
When using silicone, make sure it’s uv safe, otherwise it’s going to fail after 1 summer, the good ones rated for exterior applications can withstand -50 to +180c, they smell nasty, anything it comes in contact with is compromised
You can do literally everything here with nothing but a saw, chisels, tape measure, pencil, square and a marking gauge. Cheap, it only takes time and effort
Andy, please look up Paul Sellers here on CZcams. All of this can be done with hand tools, Sir!
however with all the old cool tools i see you certainly know your way around your shop and you know all the safe zones of your tools being a master as you are be careful
Simply beautiful
Muy interesante, la ventana, saludos desde Perù
Freakin sweet build ! But where can i buy some of those epic camo knickerbockers ! must have
Any information on the window hardware?
“Simple” hahaha! When you have a lifetime of experience and a awesome shop!
Awesome tools!
how much would it cost for a 41wide x 57 1/2 {that's the overall dimensions on the jam
Very skilled underrated trade. Awsome work...
Thank you :)
What is the horizontal saw blade machine?
Nice work, what is the timber?
Muchas gracias maestro!
What kind of hinges were used to allow window opens that way? I have seen windows open both ways in Germany.
you are a professional
Hello, I'm curious, What was the thickness of your frame stock and what type of wood did you use?
70 x 45 mm profiles, spruce in this case. But for higher quality windows 85 x 72 mm black pine.
Any word on the hardware.? Great looking job!
I would also like info on the hardware
As a qualified carpenter all I can say is , none of his power tools have guards on them !
I am not a carpenter but I thought the same. The window making video and lesson are GREAT, no comments about that. But while watching the video I thought there were plenty of situations in which accidents and very severe injuries (even death-causing injuries) could have happened.
For example, there is a bit where he drills holes in the wood, pushing the power drill towards himself. If the drill would have slipped, it would have gone right through his belly, God forbid. Worse than a bullet.
Wow, that was impressive. Where do you get the hardware? What is it called? It looks like it is a casement/ awning window hardware.
Jason Williams Any luck on finding the hardware? I was impressed by it and want to incorporate into my project.
I'm also really interested in that detail. Looked around online, didn't see anything that matched.
Great Video. Was that a joiner machine you used midway through? I've never seen a belt sander that big😯
It's a pad sander, some of the better ones have a pad suspended on rails above the bed you pull down with a handle to apply pressure, i sed to use one when sanding boards flat whilst doing my cabinet making apprenticeship

theres nothing simple about this man, these are some serious machines, and those blades....
Nice job bro 👍
Graeat work, man! I'm looking for window hinge system like in your window (tilt & turn). Can not find them. Could You help?
That's as good as it gets 💪👍
very nice ! Thank you.
Beeauuutifulll!!! Outstanding job! You saved me alot of work. Im gonna go buy windows! Just kidding I need to make 2 alike but no shaper, I dont suppose I could get by with my router? Is it a must have?
Shaper is only required for precision and speed…
Router or a precise tablesaw will perfectly do the job.
Nice question
Exelente. Realmente es una ventana de categoria❤
What kind of hinges are those and where can you buy them?
hi...I made a Christmas Tree after watching your video. Thank you for being an inspiration to me
These are winterized?
Well done great job
Very useful tutorial
Push sticks ?
I see my watching the video that he still has all of his fingers.
Your vision seems none the worst for wear watching this......but how is your hearing doing?
Did you see the starting kickback when he used pushblocks. This is why I prefer a tracksaw + MFT
I could barely watch this, just a matter of time until he loses some fingers or worse. The floor of the workshop ..is that ART?
Bellissima complimenti...💪💪💪
I wonder if he still has all his fingers after using that planer without a safety guard?
Beautiful.
Отличная работа! Но мусор из под ног убирайте. Опсасно. Берегите себя. Успехов!
Beautiful job. But please use a push stick on your bed saw and your spindle moulder.... Please.
Yup. Just a simple way to make windows.... Using tools you can get from Walmart...
ok for real. Great video!
Thanks for sharing, man!
Maybe you could think about putting a guard on the planer? And clearing all the crap from the floor.
👍👍👍
A joy to watch :-)
God bless you... this entire video I was praying for your safety...
You are a brave man.
Probably not the exact design, but everyone wondering about those window hinges; I looked up 2 way window hinge and found something call a "Tilt and Turn" window. Seems to accomplish the same thing. Good luck!
