I larger air gap doesn't necessarily mean better insulation. I think between 1/8" and 1/2" are ideal because it minimizes convection within the pane.

Still, a good idea and I'd like to see how it works out. I was just looking at the frames I started making last year as I was cleaning up the garage the other day. I still gotta finish those up!
