Terry,
The frame pieces have a 5/16" wide x 1/2" deep groove. The glass will be bedded in silicone sealant. The mortice and tenon joints are configured so I can attach the bottom of the frame to the boat and build the frame around the glass starting at the front center of the windshield and working outward.
My hope is that bedding the glass in silicone will make the glass and frame act monolithically and minimize stress on the joints.
