One of the unavoidable realities of working on exterior doors and windows, are the long days and nights that are sometimes required. It’s often less than practical to leave a door opening incomplete and to come back later. Fortunately, my 35mm camera had a flash.
And there it is…the photo evidence of Jared Anderson’s young apprenticeship that began several years before this photo was taken. We figure he was about 12 years old in this shot. And thus it was that the young fenestration-Jedi began spending his summers working with his father learning the ancient arts of installing and repairing doors and windows.
Believe it or not, this door and jamb assembly was weatherstripped. I wish the photos and the space here facilitated describing it in detail, but suffice to say that it can be done.
