I’m restoring a building with 160 wood casement windows. The woodworking part is easy. The hard part is finding replacement hardware for the windows, especially the tracks. Some are Anderson but many are of an unknown brand. Does anyone have an address for a supplier of pre-1970 casement window hardware? Any help appreciated.

Richard - I'm not sure when these guys started making their sash hardware, but it works great for casement, awning or transom applications. I have used many different sizes, many different times. It is good stuff. I think Andrew D. told me he found them on the net, but this is all I have for them. - Whitco sash hardware, Vincent Whitney Co., Sausalito, CA 94966
*Hey there, I knew yb would ring in. I don't think they have a Web site ... I tried the GTE "Superpages" to get their phone number and asked for a catalog.http://superpages.gte.com/ (VERY powerful version of the Yellow Pages)... yields ...Vincent Whitney Company 60 Liberty Ship Way, Sausalito, CA 94965 (415) 332-3260
*andrew, man, did you ever build your Cypress sash? (and I'm thinkin' we're both right about that ledger, so much depends on specific job, sometimes I use 'em, sometimes I don't). - jb
