Another silly window

Another one. See how the inside is lower than the outside? Completely ridiculous.

These windows are very thick, about 5cm, and are made to fit the window frame very precisely. Which is wrong, because when the window opens or closes the outside edge touches the frame, and thus splinters either the window sill or the edge of the window, or both. Here both happened. Hence the sort of complicated fracture that needed repair.

Made a groove in the window frame with a chisel, mounted an aluminium profile sunken in the wood, almost flush with the window. Now it does not touch the frame when opening or closing. Also "chamfered" the edge of the window a bit.

And mounted the alu profiles to keep the rain out, this also is, and hopefully was, a leaky window.
