Kitchen window completed! |
Robert came over and we installed the kitchen window trim. I only had one eight year old reject trim board out in the old house. It was just long enough to split in half and do the kitchen window. No mistakes were allowed or there would not be enough trim. We measured everything a few times and then I wrote down the dimensions then we went out to the yard and set up the table saw in the grass. We had to rip the board into 4.25 and 5 inch widths. We cut the bottom five inch piece first and it fit perfectly. We tapped it into place and then I marked the two 1/4 inch x2 inch cutout spots for the window. Then took it out and I trimmed those out with the jigsaw. It fit perfectly and we just shimmed the back up to make it level front to back. A repeat of the top board was done then I accidently cut one of the sides too short! Luckily, there was enough leftover to tear a five inch board down to 4.25 inch and cut the side out of it. The sides were a pretty tight fit but we managed to get them in place and everything nailed in place. It looks very good and Annmarie is happy.
