Cased Openings Installed

Susan wanted to have some cased openings with leaded transoms, so of course that went on my to-do list.  Since the cased openings had to be special made, and because I once ran a mill-work shop I had to build'em.  Didn't matter that I was in my twenties when I worked there, I figured it was like riding a bike, "once you learned you never forgot".  Well, I hadn't forgotten how to build them, just how much I didn't like building them.  Well, they are built and up and now I need to start the transoms.  I really like the way they look as well.  I decided to use a flat casing with a back band like the old houses in our area used and we are pleased with the look.  Now I need to get started on those transom, right after 15 or 20 other things on my list.
