I built steel windows with some funky angles...(Rescuing a 120 year old house) 

Laura & Felix teaching the non German internet the word 'geil' Sehr geil!

Hello, Laura! My name is Roberta and I lecture in engineering courses in Brazil. Since you'll always have to deal with lots of irregular quadrilaterals, I'd like to give you a measuring tip: if you measure all the sides of the quadrilateral and one diagonal, you can turn the quadrilateral into 2 triangles. The triangle is a very particular geometric figure due to a property called "geometric rigidity": once the dimensions of the sides have been established, the angles will never change. All you have to do is redraw the triangles with the diagonal common to both to recreate the quadrilateral. A very simple way to draw the triangles is to follow these steps: 1) Start by drawing one of their sides, such as the hypotenuse; 2) Draw a circle with a radius equal to the side (e.g. the smaller cathetus) and a center at one of the ends of the hypotenuse; 3) Draw another circle with a radius equal to the other side (e.g. the longer cathetus) and a center at the other end of the hypotenuse. 4) At the point where the two circles intersect you will have the meeting of the two sides. Simply connect this point with each end of the hypotenuse and you will have your triangle drawn. PS. To assemble the quadrilateral, just repeat the process with the other sides on top of the diagonal (in the case of the steps - the hypotenuse). If you have any questions, let me know and I'll try to explain better. Greetings and congratulations on the channel!

"Let's take this out and celebrate this a bit more" love that!

@Felix: I like your editing so much. The videos are really pleasing to watch.

Laura you definitely need a low bench about knee height so you can use the angle grinder on it and not on your knee. 😉😉

Not sure what is about this episode; maybe the footage during the metal work (slo-mo sparks!!!!!) - but Felix's camera work and the editing are noticeably OUTSTANDING! Totally 'GEIL' !!! Always adore Laura, but this praise is for the team backing her up!!!!!!

The height variance between the two trapezoid windows really makes them look amazing. I love them so much!

It reminds me of Japanese rice paper walls. Very nice, Laura! Hi Felix & Smudo!

11:59 lol. Been there 🤣. I realllly like the part where you acknowledged that there was something you wanted to change later. But for now, you wish to celebrate what you liked. Such a wonderful mentality.

The rustic beams with the modern windows look FANTASTIC!

Genius windows, you’ve inadvertently created a little touch of Bauhaus in your hallway, tying in the original style of the house with an architectural style which followed it, beautiful

Still waiting for the “SUPERGEIL” hoodie.

Felix’s videography of the metalworking in this video is so incredibly beautiful! I’m in awe 😍

Nice prototypes, space is begging for stained glass!

i think one of my favourite evolutions on this channel si that you don't even tryto translate some words anymore, and you just have geil on screen

You're going to hear everything through those windows.

Your attention to detail with the horizontal lines is amazing. Love it.

I feel like it clashes a bit if you do keep the plexi. The entire vibe and thought process was as much nature and natural as possible and then in the middle of it is Plexiglass.

Somebody in my parent's neighbourhood has some something similar to this with their upstairs toilet/bathroom. Also opaque white glass, but floor to ceiling. One downside, at least in the evening/night when the light is on inside, you can totally see the shadow of then sitting on the throne. XD

Looks amazing there is a Japanese screen door feel about it. I personally would never have it in a bathroom or bedroom. I would appreciate more privacy sound wise

"Imma try to make this fancy"😂😂😂 right after u said u wouldn't worry about it! Love it❤❤❤

The montage video sections are works of art; great camera work, great editing, great music choices. Well done, Felix!

The windows are so cool. They lowkey remind me of those traditional Japanese paper doors.

Laura forgot the word Polygon, honestly, mood. Every shape is a triangle if you break it down enough.

Laura you are now an expert in trapezoids! I know you have some math phobia - many do - but as a former high school and middle school math teacher, I hearby crown you The Queen of Trapezoidia!!

Two diagonal lines in the middle-ish of the over door window, matching the angle and space of the two lines around the beam!

When you said something to fill the gaps I thought Clay! then you said foam. Those windows are beautiful regardless. Years from now if you do actually AirB&B the house, I would just be walking around in awe of every detail for days.💜

Laura is the kind of person hoarders all aspire to be. Saves plexiglass for 13 years, until the right project comes up for it.

Love those windows & spending time & effort on the frames was well spent ... Laura you continue to amaze me congratulations 🎉

I'm loath to offer advice (so many advisors in RU-vidville!) but here it is, paint the finial on the stairpost black.

The nice part is you have accumulated all the necessary tools needed for every project.😊

You could use the same glass and sandblast it so the bottom gets more opaque. Think this would look really nice

Geil Laura, das sieht richtig toll aus! So ein schönes Detail was den Flur extrem aufwertet! You nailed it!!

The new 'screen frames' look great but I think the one to be modified would look better without a horizontal division, there's so many lines and levels already

I’ve been slowly learning German for the past few months and these videos are always a good metric for how much I know! It’s not much, but I’m recognising times when the subtitles are different to what was actually said, just small things like “sehr cool” being changed to “perfect”. The English flows better than a literal translation so I get it!

Can I make one suggestion and that is, can you either replace the screws with black ones or paint them black. Just an observation seeing as you have put so much work into it and you being such a perfectionist. 😅

what you need for this is a "Treppenspinne".

OOMG!! OOOOOMG!!!! Those windows are my most favorite thing you have done to date. They are so elegant and yet so basic and raw. Love

Painting the screws black will help too.

This is like a reality show on tv

Didn't think I was going to like it....have to eat my words. Looks fantastic

When you are a team of one, and I find myself getting emotional involved and rooting for you hoping you win by the end of the video. I love your creative solutions that you basically give to the world. Brilliant work.

Suggestion about bath window frames...paint screw heads black if you hadn't already thought of it. Also, agree with horizontal division of window over door to match side windows. Had you thought of doing stained glass windows at a future date ? You could video you learning how. Ha!

Looks awesome! Reminds me of Japanese rice paper sliding doors in a way. Great work Laura and great idea to change the window above the door to match the horizontal line of the other two.

My German is OK, but not native. I've learned a lot of expressions from this channel - especially when stuff goes wrong and they're effing and blinding!

I really admire and like that you admit the above door window needs to be redone, and the way you plan to redo it will look amazing. If you want to make these windows look even more awesome, you could double the effort by making duplicates and then fitting two with a gap in-between that can house strong diffused lighting, essentially turning all the windows into inside lighting (with a lot of creative options) but that would be heaps of added effort. I hope too that you find some way to integrate your tiny home into your property eventually.

Looks great! I am excited to see the rest of your visions coming to fruition! You sawing and grinding so close to your leg did freak me out. Hugs from 🇨🇦

You make everything look so easy. The windows look fantastic.

I love how you approach every challenge with enthusiasm and skill. And what a bonus to have every tool and material you might need.... every innovator's dream laboratory!

The angles and colors of those windows remind me of the Haus Lise Lotte logo!

Some really cool textured glass would look really cool. Maybe an antique textured, frosted glass? Would look a little less sterile.

A friend of mine did a door which included two pieces of thin plexi with bubble wrap in between - it looks really cool.

The windows look great and it is the right decision to not mix the vertical and horizontal bars. Just one observation - the 'triangular' windows have four sides. Not exactly triangular.

I knew you would change your mind in a instant about the frame joint overlaps. Organic process, always navigating. Part of the appeal of making/building.

The windows remind me of Frank Lloyd wright. Very cool. Makes me want to do this in my house.

This is doorbell-designing... BUT since you can see the bathroom lights being on from this side through the plexiglass, maybe it'd be cool to add a small trash-lamp that's connected to the switch inside the bathroom so you can see it's occupied from the hallway/living room! I bet there's some awesome lamps in your trashpile (that I'm crazy envious about haha)

Wow, they look great. Very clever. The house will be uniquely yours

So talented both in your imagination as well as attention to detail..Have fun with your wife in the US..

I really like the minimalist look of your windows.

Oh I love them. They have a sort of Asian (Japanese perhaps?) look to them. So, there will be light but also privacy plus the wonderfully unique appearance - Well done!!!!!!!

Those windows look great. The wood, steel and frosted glass are giving me industrial shoji screen vibes. Hopefully we get to see the finished rectangle window with some backlighting at night. It should look amazing.

Es sieht echt Klasse aus. Hat so was japanisches, wie diese traditionellen Papier-Trennwände!

idk if it might look weird but you could add a vertical divide in the middle of the window above the door that matches the angle of the beam

bauhaus + shoji = super geil

Great video, love the camera work, Felix. It's funny how often you end up working on your knees, no matter how much bench space you have! 🤣 That sound of satisfaction with the fit, at 17:13, was hilarious! I'd have to continue the horizontal bar across the 3rd window too. I love how the opaque window and black metal frame aesthetic sits with the wooden framework of the house and is both a nod to Mondrian and modern art but also links with old style black timber-framed houses and Huf Haus. I'd be interested to see what the lighf leaks look like once both the hall and bathroom are done; l wonder if they'd look pretty rather than annoying? Laura the pedant in me has to point out that a triangle has 3 sides, not 4 (even though l know why you called them triangle-shaped). Little things. They matter! 🤣 ❤❤

ein sehr schöner Kontrast zum Fachwerk!

I actually liked the mix of vertical and horizontal lines

A cinematic delight! Great Job on the video🌈🙌🏼😆💖❤️ You guys are too funny!

I really loved how we got a little check-up on the staircase wall! I don't think we have seen you weld in a long time! The windows look amazing, I think breaking up the plexiglass with the cross bars really elevated its look!

You can place a "fake" beam diagonally in the opening over the door. Then make two windows just like the new ones grom today but smaller. It might look like a nice continuity too. If I catch your drift that will be way better than "extending" lines from today's windows.

The windows look amazing

I love the trapezoid shoji adjacent windows that you have landed with!

Interesting - the windows immediately reminded me of the "Haus Lise Lotte" logo

The light true gonna be fantastic. Maybe paint srewheads black

"It doesn't have to be fancy!" .... "No I'm gonna make it fancy" lmao!

The house is good but the music is epic :)

18:23 Totally agree about the vertical and horizontal lines for the rectangular window frame over the door frame.Suggestion: Having just one vertical line in the rectangular window matching the diagonal of the two windows. Could be dead center, or offset it in a 1/3 - 2/3 ratio from left to right. 😊

Ooooh. That idea with two partitions, one that comes even with the two "triangels" and a big section on top is awesomeness.

I love 4 sided triangles! 😉

The windows are literally a work of art!

It looks great! Finally getting to do some pretty things. ❤

I like your horizontal line idea for the transom. I was wondering if you did a vertical piece that is the same angle as the beam separating the two other windows would look good to break up the large expanse.

Beautiful work. Now I want to do that very thing to my house.

The windows are pretty cool. I'm pretty OCD and for some reason, it didn't bother me that one section was horizontal and the other vertical. Then when you showed where the horizontal line would be on the transom section, it made perfect sense.

the track you played at 10:30 was so good, reminds me of when i used to tune into your channel just to relax to the music

“We build this, right?” - absolute gold!

Hey Laura I love the chocolate fountain at the end of the stairs. ❤

Nice to see rebuilding each week vs teardown.

Have Simone build a stained glass panel for over the door!

I agree with you Laura the transom window did not look right. But I love the steel frame look. Very clean and sharp. Looking forward to next video xx

Simply Stunning! Annnnd, One of the best videography out there! Thks to You Both

Für das obere Fenster: warum machst Du nicht eine oder zwei Streben schräg, in dem selben Winkel wie die beiden linken?

You need a disco ball for the bath! Geil!

The glass would look sick as primary colors, similar to Bauhaus.

With the opaque plexiglass, it looks a bit like shoji - very nice actually!!

Your front entry is a beautiful blend of modern and traditional. What a wonderful space to greet you and guests. And they are trapezoids. 😅

love this video. cameraman felix on new levels of aesthetics :-)

Sharing your joy when you get it perfect, is the best.😊

This is so much fun to watch! I can't wait to see the built-in furniture!!

That looks completely cool!!!!
