Hello, everyone. I have read all of the wonderful information all of you have posted about Wiley windows. Thank you so much for doing so because I can't find too much about them anywhere else.
I have no experience building anything, but I eventually plan on making a foamie (with help). I have been reading so much information from this site and trying to let it sink in.
I want to use Wiley windows but I have some questions.
From what I understand, the edge on the inside should be higher than the edge on the outside, so the plexiglass is sitting on a slightly slanted ledge, not a completely straight one.
How important is it to have the frame extend out into the trailer? Could the screen frame and plexiglass sit on a small lip and then use a folding frame latched up to keep them closed?
My understanding on the weep holes is not completely solid. Should the bottom of the hole be even with the window frame? Someone mentioned a groove cut into the frame to channel water out to the weep holes. How would that work? Would it be down the center or closer to the outside edge? Would I then make little grooves running to each weep hole from that long groove?
