Is there a way to replace only the glass in an aluminum window?
Yes, it is a relatively easy task to replace the glass in aluminum windows. You basically do it the same way you would when replacing a wood window. First remove the glazing strips. Remove the glass and the glazing tips. Glazing tips are on the inside of the frame and look like trim. You may need a screwdriver of chisel to remove the glazing trim or tips. Then apply glazing compound on the frame. Press your window in to place. Replace the glazing tips. Use a caulking gun to apply glazing compound which will hold the window into place.

I suggest you contact a local repairer, in Thomson or Yell.com etc. look under heading "Double Glazing Repairs". or if you can remove it from the window, and identify if its an espagnolette type (when you turn the handle it moves several locking cams) or a cockspur handle, which just catches on to the frame. Once you have identified it your half way their, look for any marking or Logo's etc, do a search on the net thru catologues etc.

Why did double glazing not catch on until 1970s when it was invented in 1930?
It did not catch on because of the nature of builders, builders have always looked for the cheapest way out. So unless the windows were mandated have energy efficiency they didn't. In the late seventy's during the energy crisis of the time. The vinyl / wood window took over for the storm window/ single glazed windows that were used at the time. Also the advent of the aluminum " thermal break" window was introduced at that time and insulated glass made economic sense.

How do you put the window back on track in a VW Vanagon?
ON MY '81, I CAN FIX IT BY ROLLING THE WINDOW TRACK ALL THE WAY DOWN AND ACCESSING THE WINDOW THROUGH THE REMOVED VENT (AT THE BACK LOWER CORNER OF THE DOOR)AND THE SPEAKER HOLE (AT THE FRONT CORNER). THE TRACK HAS A ROUND KNOB THAT MOVES THE WINDOW UP AND DOWN, AND IT'S FACING AWAY FROM YOU. THE REASON YOUR WINDOW POPS OFF IS THAT THE SQUARE PLASTIC PIECE ATTACHED TO THE ROUND KNOB HAS BROKEN OFF. GENTLY PUSH ON THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDOW AND MOVE THE METAL BRACKET (PART OF THE WINDOW) SO THE RECTANGULAR GAP IN THE MIDDLE IS OVER THE ROUND KNOB, AND THE SLOT IN THE METAL BRACKET IS OVER THE CHANNEL EDGE THAT THE KNOB RIDES IN. FROM NOW ON, EITHER HAVE THIS WINDOW ALL THE WAY UP OR ALL THE WAY DOWN. IT WILL FALL OFF TRACK IF IT'S PART WAY.
