I like your work so far Dave!
Yes and no , but I do have a couple of snow banks yet and something tells me we haven't seen the last of it yet.

Dave,
Don't you want to use safety glass? Tempered glass can't be cut after it's been tempered. Safety glass is what's used for windshields. That's what I installed on a Sandrail I used to have.

I don't think I can use that size Dave, but thank you! The big backhoe has a broken front window but it's larger than 26".
