Got my awning windows

Great find. :applause: That's exactly what I was looking for.............triple pane crankouts. Oh well, I'm happy with what I have. Good for you!!!!! :thumbsup:
Chris :D

The tension between what is good enough and what is beyond that creates the space for character to become our work.

Awwww Woodbutcher, where were you 5 months ago? Those are great windows, they should look excellent on your teardrop. I am ready to take the saw to my sides and install some of those. Thanks for the post. I guess now that is reason #27 for building another down the road.

:thumbsup:

Sorry to not let you in on these sooner but 5 months ago I had never heard of this site. But maybe you can use them in your next project. I did pickup some round window cranks yesterday. I pictured rolling over at night and getting speared on the ones they sent

I was looking at windows like that because I like the style but my doors open flush against the body and would hit so I went with sliders.

I could not find any manufacturer's info on the windows and there is no website info on the sales receipt. You could call them and ask. I know they have other sizes as well.

I have them on my support trailer (20') for my mobil screen print business and I have to hang streemers from them to keep people from walking into the corners! They are all blind I guess?
