Maybe I should have bought a dozen copies of this book while it was still available. They are selling used at Amazon for over 60 dollars. I do want to get into making windows, something that I have been working on. Here is my review at Amazon.

Unfortunately this book is out of circulation. I guess it didn't go back into print because most people buy windows rather than make them. That is a shame, because this book is well written. I had first heard about it when I bought a set of Freud router bits for making window sashes. They said, "Get Make your own handcrafted doors and windows by John Birchard to learn how to make them. It is chock full of ideas, pictures, and examples.
Windows are a critical application and this book will help you in both your window making and door making quests. I had been trying to find a copy for about a year, and finally found one available here at Amazon, after calling Sterling Publishing.
Highly recommended.
It is available used at Amazon, hold on to your seats when you see how expensive it is. That is more of a statement that their are no good alternatives for those of us who choose to make our own windows.
