Tiny House Purchase: Houselot of Double-Glazed Window Glass

Score!

Side-view of windows in garage

A house lot of second hand double-glazed window panels for only $80!  This, like the trailer, was not budgeted at this stage but it was just too good a deal to pass-up.    The idea is to custom build the window frames utilising this glass. 




With this purchase we have been able to stick to our design goals:

• Keep it simple
• Keep costs down
• Recycle/reclaim materials where possible without compromising on safety/quality
• Be energy efficient
• Be self-sufficient

Me in the picture to add some perspective.  

Having the windows now will help us make more informed decisions on the design and materials we need to build the tiny house; especially since Vince is already making a 10:1 ratio model of what we want to build.  

Apparently, its important to get the design right:  window, beams, studs and whatnot ratios and placements help hold everything together structurally or something. . . . who knew?  We live and learn.  ;)

As Hannibal would say:  "I love it when a plan comes together!"

To serendipity,
