Looking good Oldihtractor ! So far I am impressed , hope everything runs smooth and you getterdone fast ! Are you going to keep a rusty look to it as it appears now , or are you going to finish it out with drywall or paneling ? Which ever the case , it is going ot be nice ,

It's an old long carriage barn.   about 30x120  center section is 3 stories root cellar main floor with dbl doors and loft.. built about 1880 all pegged.. has ben a major project to restore but getting there..

We are gonna leave ir in the old barn look no finshed walls and gonna put old tounge n grove flooring back down over the ply board... Just didn't have an old window for the project but will find one in time to replace that modern day thing.. We are kind of purists and like the priginal look..

Nothing like the original.  Keep it up.  Thanks for sharing.  And you folks are doing your best to get it back to original.  Amen to the purist.  Good luck and keep those pics comin.

Love the original rustic look,...glad you're keeping that/ I agree,...modern replacement windows are hard to swallow, ..looks wise.
no matter how 'efficient' they may be.     Joe

When do you expect it to be done?
I also love the natural look...
Cant wait to see the finished pics...
with the owners in the pic....

nice work

I always admired my sister-in-law as she took wood working course and made half there furniture. My daughter-in-law is a natural. I'm lucky if I can hammer a nail in my horse hair walls. lol they bounce right out...
I admire so many people here who have many talents..they are blessed.

You can order new double pain insulated glass windows with all wood sashes and original swing lock hardware. I've installed many of them and when trimmed out with a on-site cut and fit sill I'd defy the staunchest die hard purist to tell the difference between new and original period. Either way you're doing a nice job and leaving it rustic is the way to go.

The best maker of old looking windows I have found are Marvin windows. They are what they use in the historic section of town here. Not cheap though.

Is is all ready yet?
My surgery has been delayed due to an infection and possible kidney problems that  never knew I had, so I was looking to see more pics before I'm out of here for a while...
Was looking at your things on e-bay. You have a nice collection of things on there.
I'll have to bookmark you so I can buy something from you nice people.... once things settle down here...
One of my brothers that I told you about has a store on there also.
Hope all is well out there....
You are really a nice family...
Glad I got to know you a bit...I'll check back in case more pics show up, as I'm taking it one day at a time.....
Enjoy those kids as they grow up so fast....

John,
Do you ever make it further down the Cape? My sis has a nice store down there....
Once again Good Luck....
