I am hoping to insert a reclaimed stain glass panel into a internal dividing wall. I have cut a small hole into the wall and can see it is platerboard fixed to 4" batons (joists?) approx 16" apart (vertically) - I think this is standard construction but I've never looked inside a wall before.....
The stained glass panel is approx 45" across x 35" tall and mounted in an extremely rigid frame made from 4"x2" (With architrave to bring it flush with the depth of the wall).
The wall is not a supporting wall but I am still nervous about cutting through these joists to insert my purpose built frame. Can you give any advice on the best way to do this?
Thanks in advance - looks like this website is going to be invaluable over the next year or so - lots to do...!
