Putting up the glass turned out to be more difficult than expected. To hold it in place we hammered two wooden blocks below each sheet of glass. Then around the sides of each window, between the glass and the wood, we put double-sided foam tape as a sealant. Outside of that we were suppose to put a special kind of caulking but it turned out to be a disaster. It was very messy, got everywhere, did not make a proper seal, and was a pain to work with. What we should have done is had the rafters a little farther apart so that we could have a piece of wood in-between each piece of glass. This would allow us to screw another piece of wood on the top of the glass to help hold it down and add more protection from leaks.
