The project we introduced last week, repairing the freeze-thaw damage to two dozen window frames, is complete. Tape, scrape, sand, wipe, stain, seal, varnish, varnish. Remove tape. We think it came out very well. Should be good for another eleven years. We think the real culprit is the April Air. We don't like the dry winter air, so we turn up the April Air. This causes excess humidity, which forms water drops on the cold window pane. The droplets stream to the base of the window and freeze over night. Then the sun comes out and melts the water and it stands there, until it gets cold and freezes again or evaporates. And so on. Minnesota Hail to Thee.
