When we first moved into our new room, there was one minor flaw - no window. We didn't realize how much we needed a window until we slept in the room the first night and had no idea what time it was when we woke up because it was still pitch black. We started adding electronics to the room and they provided tiny bits of light, e.g. the clock, the light from the printer, etc. But, still, we needed more light. And more air, since it was starting to get hotter. So, about a month after we moved in, we (meaning my dad) started construction to add a window to the room.
The "before" view
Time to punch holes in the wall
He ripped out the insulation...
...and the studs...
...and moved the outlet down and added more studs
Clean-up on Aisle 3
Where was the screwdriver?
More holes
Ripping out the wall
We were tempted to leave it like this
Does it fit?
Putting in the window
Hooked up the outlet and replaced the drywall
It stayed like this until last week...
...until Douglas and a friend finally finished the drywall and paint and added curtains. And, we have a window!
