BRISTOL (NEWS CENTER) -- Volunteers in Bristol and several other midcoast towns are making storm windows to help low income families keep warm. A group at the Carpenter's Boatshop in Bristol has been building the simple, wood and plastic windows for about two months. They've made about two hundred of them so far, and more are coming. They say the windows are simple to build, and they make a real difference in comfort and in heating bills. Groups in Bath, Edgecomb and Westport Island are also building windows. The design comes from two local men --- Guy Marsden and Topher Belknap - who belong to the Midcoast Green Collaborative. Marsdem refined the design, and has full instructions on how to build it on his website. There is also a list of workshops where you can get instruction on how to make the windows.
