Making up some sapele window sashes to replace the rotten ones in my bay window.
A couple of questions guys:-
1. The existing fixed sashes are sitting on the cill. Should I machine an undercut to the front edge to aid water shedding? I was thinking about a 6mm high and deep rebate but would this be any better than no rebate at all.
2. Is it worthwhile to apply wood preserver like Ronseals 5 star once all the frame sections have been made and before gluing together?
