How to Fix a Broken Window

By Lee Wallender, About.com Guide

Roll out the glazing putty into long, thin "ropes" and push these ropes into each side of the window frame where the glass will rest.

Place the glass in the window frame's L-channel, resting the glass in the putty.

Using your putty knife, push two glazier's points into the bottom of the frame. If you need extra force, gently tap the handle of the putty knife with a rubber mallet.
