I've nearly finished my first one of 8 windows. We wanted timber Box sliding sash windows, after finding out they would cost nearly £1000 each I figured I'd make my own. I've had to design them myself as plans aren't available for ones with double glazing and up to date details. It taken loads of time to get to this stage but I've detailed the construction on my blog http://slidingsash.blogspot.com/ So I can follow it as I'm building the others.
It's also one of reasons why Ive not finished off the loft conversion yet.
Here's a few pics to show how its come together
Dovetail joints
Box construction
glued up sashes
horn detail
all together
I'm up to painting them now using linseed oil paint.
