Glazing for Eye Ball Window

Question

I need to place a sheet of window glass inside the square frame of an eye ball window to prevent condensation on it during the winter.

The glass is 3/16". I want to place a glazing type of trim around the edge of the glass to seal it in the wood frame. Possibly caulk it in and then use glass retaining clips to hold it.

Thank you for your patience in this matter. I suggest taking your measurements to a glass shop or hardware store that can make up a glass panel for you. Try to get a glass panel made with a wool pile or bubble seal around the edge of the frame. I believe it would be better to install this on the outside if you can. Also don't seal it up too tight, since you want to allow condensation to escape between the two glass panes.
