New Roof Bar Clasp 

 And How We Stop the Glass 



THIS roof bar clasp is 

 new and it's old. 



It is our old one changed. 

 The sides have been cut 

 down so that the drip on 

 the bar is left uncovered. 



This overcomes entirely 

 the possibility of filling 

 up the groove when paint- 

 ing ; or of insects making 

 their nests in there, clog- 

 ging it up. 



It has the same drip open- 

 ing and air vent at the 

 bottom and is kept in the 

 same way as before from 

 coming full end against 

 the plate, which would 

 otherwise prevent it from 

 drying out and speedily 

 cause end bar rot. 



To hold the eave glass 

 from sliding, we are now 

 using a cast iron glazing 

 stop, which is screwed to 

 the plate. 



The glass does not fit 

 under it, but simply rests 

 securely against it. 



When you are ready to 

 talk building, say when 

 and where and we'll be 

 there.
