BigDave_185, Howdy;

buytal tape, works fine ...lasts a long time.
Handling tip, if it's warm where/when you want to install the buytal tape
put it in the freezer for a while first, otherwise it gets to soft n saggy.

BigDave_185, Howdy;

:lol: , Just another one of those warm winter days in Utah eh?

Throw it outdoors, bring it in when ready to apply it.
Generally if your comfortable in a T-shirt it can use some cooling down.
Just makes it easier to handle is all.

Copy that

Any once have suggestions for transfer it the cut outer wall of the window to the sheeting I just put back up on the inside?

I think my approach would be to lightly attach the inner sheathing and
scribe it from the outside before window installation... :thinking:

Well folks I made a mistake, got another window in and managed to put a 3/4 screw into the frame and..... screwed through the window

But.... I might just tap it with the tig and see if I can close the holes up. Oops

Or maybe just fill hole with caulk and hide with black touch up paint? :x

Hey Big Dave,
S**t happens sometimes... a lot. No biggy. So I'm not sure of the camera angle there, but I think I see the drain slots at the top? IDK, but check that out. Drain at top would not be the preferred orientation. Slots made to let water out, not in. ;)

Black caulk and call it good! As McDave said if those are the weep holes they need to go facing down or you’ll get water inside.

Well... testing out my old epoxy from a previous life

ImageImage

It’s old enough I had better check the chemical mix before I pour it on my trailer floor. Bottoms up as it goes. Hopefully in 12 hrs this cup is as hard as a rock.

As of last night at 11pm. The cup was hot enough I couldn’t hold it, the rolled out sample was still wet.

Fast forward to today at 7:00 the cup was hard as a rock
