First big window

The latest episode was to measure out, cut sills, square up and put in place (not "install", yet) the east front main room window. This is the "least good" front window, with the other one (west) being fairly intact with no broken panes. 

The windows were supplied in 2 separate casements, requiring us to install our own mullion as well as make the frames "read" well against the stone (basically, make them look good/normal/proper, with even borders from an outside perspective). The mullion was, quite by chance and again by a stroke of luck, the width of a 2 x 4 and the depth of two 2 x 4's ... Wow.

Below is the sequence in photos:
Window removed, fitting the mullion, mullion installed, window offered up, (inside & outside perspective).

Outside view... It was wet & cold, so out of focus
