Title: Website of windows?
Post by: Thunderchicken on 27 October 2009, 08:35:49 AM

Hi all,

I'm not sure if I dreamt this but I have a vague recollection of an LAFer posting a link to a website which contains hundreds of pictures of windows. It would come in handy for a build I'm putting together.

Does it ring a bell with anyone?

Cheers.

This has been posted before more than once; I think it was jorge808 who showed me the site.

I just noticed that there's a "search" tool... and they have tatami! :)

We should have a 'Resources' sticky somewhere.

If you mean model windows for 28mm scale then the best selection I've seen is Grandt line:

http://www.grandtline.com/product_lists/quarter_inch.htm#1/4%20SCALE%20%20ARCHITECTURAL%20COMPONENTS

They are apparently hard to order through however, so you might be better off buying from Antinocetti's Worshop. They have a more limited range but at least their service is good and they're in the U.K:

If you are looking to buy windows there is another great site that have a number of windows cast in clear resin.  http://www.keeblerstudios.com/index.htm
they also have a line of molds for all sorts af interesting tiles and bricks that are outside the Hirst Arts line. Check them out. I think you'll find them a great resource.

Those moulds are great!

Thanks chaps. I've already built the frame of the building so I'll be printing the windows to fit. The model windows are certainly worth bearing in mind for future projects.
