MAN BUSINESS weekend warrior Saturday start well, removed the broken sash window in the boys bedroom with the glass that just broke by itself !. Got the broken glass out, got the replacement glass at Crows Nest, $20 and cut on the spot. Test fit perfect, caulked in the silicon bead and dropped the new glass in, going well, insert the points - CRACK !. Shop now closed so reinstall sash with green garbage bag and tape, not very waterproof. Pick up another sheet of glass later in the week , 4mm this time - stronger, test fit - to bloody big !. Some fool cannot read his own writing. Off to the shop again for another sheet, finished install - perfect. Glass cost 1 X $20, 2 X $27. Time - a lot. Quote to install the glass on the Saturday $60. Satisfaction - priceless. Lesson - 40 minutes wait and $60 certainly beats 5 days of mucking around and getting to know 2 different glass shops, I could not go back to the same shop and tell them I had broken the first one and stuffed up the measurements on the 2nd - all to save $40. JOB DONE - now on to the dishwasher.
