Claim:
A method of forming a skylight assembly, the skylight comprising: a first glass panel having a first length and a first width; a second glass panel having a second length and a second width, wherein the first length is less than the second length and the first width is less than the second width; a spacer disposed between the first glass panel and the second glass panel; a stepped frame section having a lower step surface, a first substantially vertical surface, an upper step surface, a second substantially vertical surface, and an upper channel surface, the first substantially vertical surface being continuous with the lower step surface and the upper step surface, the second substantially vertical surface being continuous with the upper step surface and the upper channel surface, the lower step surface opposing a surface of the first glass panel, the upper step surface opposing a first surface of the second glass panel, and the upper channel surface opposing a second surface of the second glass panel such that a peripheral section of the second glass panel is disposed between the upper step surface and the upper channel surface; and a curb section attached to the stepped frame section, the method comprising: molding the stepped frame section and the curb section such that the lower step, surface, the first substantially vertical surface, the upper step surface, the second substantially vertical surface, the upper channel surface, and the curb section are defined within a single unitary component, the curb section being attachable to a roof.
