Window Restoration & Weatherization Boot Camp
Window Restoration & Weatherization Boot Camp is a fun and intense, three-day, hands-on learning experience. Students will learn cost-effective restoration of original, double-hung, wood windows.
You will be part of a team restoring original 100-year old windows in a small revival style house in Highland, Kansas. Highland is a wonderful small town in Northeast Kansas.
You will be working side-by-side all three days with instructor Bob Yapp. Bob is nationally recognized as one of the top experts in window restoration and has restored over 6,000 windows in his 39-year career.
This will be an intense, learn-by-doing opportunity. You will learn sash removal, safe paint & glass removal, epoxy wood repair, glazing putty application, weather stripping & sash installation which includes re-roping sash wieghts. At the end of the three days you will know from beginning to end, how to completely restore a double-hung window.

hands-on, traditional training event. All skill levels are encouraged to sign up.
