This was the first time I build solid wood windows that open and I am super excited about how they turned out! I used some Douglas fir that I have had kicking around for a while to build these and I can not wait to take these up to the property and get them installed. The only down side is I have to wait months to get the glass!!! Thanks for following the journey!

Used a push stick last night... I've got your video playing in the background while I do computer work, literally choked on my coffee. 😂😁👍
Those kids are paid actors. My kid thinks everything I do is dumb.

I know you are Samurai, and vastly more experienced than me. I also know about "foreshortening" by cameras, but I still recoil in terror (nearly sloshed my Scotch out of the glass) whenever you reach over a spinning blade to retrieve a board. This is an observation, not an admonishment. I love your channel.
Dude, nothing better than the kids coming in and telling you how awesome you are! That’s the best!
I'm so stoked that you're releasing videos frequently again. Love this series.

This man's skill level is beyond amazing. Everything always looks amazing. Thank you for the video.
Your kids are awesome, so supportive and loving. Shows what an amazing parent you are…
You sons deserve a raise in their allowances after that endorsement.
love the energy between you guys, makes it fun!
Awesome adventure! Great to see you pumping out some great content..again!
That's a nice looking window, man. Well done. And your boys sure thought so! I remember being about 12 when my Dad and uncle John built an upstairs extension on our house. It was truly a formative, positive experience for me. Watching this series brings back fond memories, (back when I learned that I could walk up a ladder with four mugs of tea!)
I love the relationship you and your BIL have. Great times!
Jesse, this has to be one of my most favourite videos I've seen from you in a long time. Excellent planning and execution, with a bit of humour thrown in for good measure. Keep it up!
Great windows! You inspire me. Can't wait for the next one.
One great thing about the off grid cabin build…. You’re no longer the Sumo carpenter lol. Dropping the Covid weight. 👍🏼😈👍🏼. Your camera guys funny too.

Hey! I'm happy to see this small cabin type work again, you're doing some really nice work with this. On the next windows maybe you could do an episode where you go into some more details on what joinery and how you get it to come out so nice.
Damn! Those frames look great! Samurai strikes again. Wasn't sure I'd get into this series, I was dead wrong. Amazing craftsmanship.
your little boy summed it up as plain as day......you are incredible with timber...........im glad your mate keeps you focused......no dark crap Samurai.....all the best
I've always wanted to make my own window frames and door. So now i have inspiration .
Comme d habitude. Super travail. Merci pour toutes ces vidéos.
Cool build, thank you for showing how the window is made.
I have used greenhouse panels cut to size for temporary windows in some historic building restorations and they worked great.
Very nice. Your work always looks beautiful and top notch.
Love how supportive your kids are ❤❤
Beautiful. That old growth lumber is awesome.
I love all the great wood you use!
Haha, I was already enjoying your video (nice shop, nice kit, and some nice woodworking!) when your two boys came in - I've just spent the whole of this last week in my own shop, doing a shelving unit for a customer, and my two boys have been visiting me. Like yours, they're at that perfect age when they're old enough to be interested in what I'm doing and young enough to be super impressed. Your video was like an echo of my week, but with an American accent, lol! Happy days, and best regards from the UK.

Really nice job….. the OG is beautiful!
My house has antique casement windows. The sash has a shallow groove routed along the length of the top and outside sides so any wind-driven will run out the bottom instead of pooling up against the frame at the top of the sash and finding its way in. If you end up having issues, you can add that with a hand router.
Beautiful work, dude! Really well done! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
See those old machine work better than new ones all the time, that's when things were made to last!
Your kids are so supportive it's making me want to be a dad.
Incredible attention to detail 👌🏼
That’s a great use of that fir that’s been sitting around for a while
Nice work love the shop 👍
Appreciate your activity these days man, was missing it!
Beautiful lumber!
Beautiful windows.
I have to admit I was unaware of the comedic value these videos provide. 5 stars
Bro, LOVE your videos! And for the glass arriving late, try chucking some plexi in there until the glass arrives. You can cut it to whatever shape you need and protect from the weather at the same time!
Frigging Awesome!!
Looks sweet!
Not too shabby for your first ever windows!
Fantastic!
You are an amazing craftsman
Those windows are sick
All well and good, Samurai. And I love your videos and enthusiasm and craftmanship. …BUT always let the top rail/horizontal part of the window frame go through and use a hidden tenon to protect the end grain of the vertical rail from the water. Makes it all last a lot longer. Greetings from Germany from a fellow carpenter…
Very nice project, too bad about the glass, it will be worth the wait. I am enjoying the cabin build and learning something too.
Nice approach to your windows, sorry I wasn't able to have provided a couple tips. Looking forward to seeing your handmade latches.
I love how your kids were totally hamming it up for the camera!
You could always install some of that heat shrink winter plastic into the window frames. Would be pretty clear and wouldn’t flap in the wind.
came for the project stayed for the banter.. you guys are hilarious..
That's a good friend. Pizza is always welcomed in my shop!
Love this.
Great video thanks !!!!
KILLER WINDOWS ‼️‼️. Vinny 🇺🇸
Very nice~!
Glue and sawdust: after the fact precision. Until the glass arrives, you can build some scrap softwood frames of exactly the same geometry, stick some transparent foil on both sides using double-sided sticky tape, and, depending on the transparency of the foil you use, you'll have a temporary replacement that's quite functional - thermally, air isolates almost exactly as the argon they put in window panes, it's just worse at sound insulation. You don't need an hour to build those temporary panes. Since they don't need to last more than a few months, you can even leave them unfinished.
Stand up comedy and woodworking...Love it 🤣🤣
I like building windows but I've not done any with moving parts. Nice work man. Also a big fan of the OG VG!
wonderful
great content
That’s EEPPIICC!
Would be nice to add screens to your new windows. Enjoying your channel more than ever. Thanks
trapezoids get real ornery when you call them triangles. you're a brave man. build is looking great.
Awesome
When I read the title my first thought was ‘Great, but how do you see through solid wood?’ Now it’s perfectly clear (pun 8n tended).
An idea for the upper loft... Hinge it so that it can fold up against the wall when not needed for sleeping.
good vid man
It's hard finding good help. Jesse, we all understand what is like working with family! 🤣🤣🤣
Super duper coolio🤟🤟
Isn’t it great to have your kids judge your work? Good job, Dad!!
Hey Jess, instead of glass, you could consider polycarbonate (a.k. Lexan) This stuff blocks U.V, has insulating properties and will not break/shatter. In Australia it is also available with a tint to reduce glare which is probably not a problem so much in Canada. This material could be bedded in with Sikaflex or similar.. Cheers, Rob.

Nice work on those windows Jesse! I assume the glass that you are using for those windows is tempered glass & double paned? Anyway, looking forward to the follow up video! 👍😉
nice work......"nice wood"......................
On the bottom sill flashing surface is that raked? From what I've seen a 1 : 12 or maybe a little less pitch helps water not wick up into the corner where the weather strip kurf cut is. The flashing can only do so much if that is a flat surface right?
Man, your boys really earned their allowance for this episode. Laid it on pretty thick though. Ha!
You could use a couple sheets of either acrylic or Lexan until your permanents come in.
I enjoy your postings. Very informative. One concern I have particularly for people who are new to the table saw is safety. I noticed you did not use a splitter, a guard, or push block on any of your table saw cuts.

I for myself think he will damage his reputation with jokes like that in public. There are many kinds of authenticity -- but this "workshop banter" does not feel approriate on a widely perceived educational video: it is plain sexist and stupid. I like his craftmanship very much and never heard this kind of slur from him before. I was surprised too, but on the negative side. My advice: keep up the good work, cut the below the belley jokes between you and your buddy...
“It’s EPIC!”
how often will you have to recoat the wood with the Odies? I love how easy it goes on. I have a Cumaru deck Installed and use an IPE Oil on it but to keep it rich and warm colored I have to apply once a year. I dont mind because I drink a 6 pack while doing it but Is that what youre going to have to do with the odies? Ive got a basement casement window project on the horizon with some spanish cedar and Think the Odies is an option.

how much time do you invest in making your CAD designs?, Just epoxy the knot space mixed with sawdust. You can use Plexiglass or lexan glass as an alternative or find used windows that are slightly bigger and cut them down to size.
Ive considered making my own windows and doors too, since the prices are ridicules, paid 13k for a 3" exterior front mahogany door from a reputable company (ya right), had to get the glass changed 2 times, cuz there were defects then finger prints (on inside), on top they didn't change out the moulding when the glass was changed, so I have multiple putty holes that have discoloured different form the door stain. Always was apprehensive due to warping, Im in eastern Canada. Considered using engineered stiles and rails (stave core + vaneer) and even overkilling it with an internal rust proof metal T channel to prevent warping, whats thoughts on that? Overkill?
Lovely as always but you're freaking me out, it looks like you're about to grab that table saw blade!
