    Next steps on rotten windows (beginner)

    Hi all, I'm a fairly new woodworker so be gentle! I've recently bought a flat, a conversion from an Edwardian vicarage. it has the most beautiful casement windows with fanlights (about 10 pairs), but they're not in great condition. There's quite a lot of rot and the previous owner did some...
