GintOtis Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 How do you guys recommend i build this first floor box window? (it would only project 6" from face of brick, and bottom edge would not align with floor) hint, using CA's 'box window' is not it... Thanks! -gint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GintOtis Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 OK... more specific questions to my window: My situation is that I'm adding this box window to existing exterior walls. (can't really follow your new wall steps, Eric) The 'attic' walls unintentionally continue up to roof above. (just want the box on one level) Can my process be continued, some how bottom moved up, top moved down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the bottom have you tried pony wall settings with say a 12" and a 6" thick wall set to align at outside surface? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GintOtis Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 sorry, am i making pony walls out of the 3 attic walls? ...or, the main wall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GintOtis Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 correct. Ryan mentioned the use of pony walls to help create the window seat. (...not getting my head around that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Have you fully explored all the options in the window dbx - especially those on the Frame panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GintOtis Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 i kept working on the ponies... i think i got it... I assume i use a molding polyline to apply any pediment corbling? thanks, Eric, Ryan and Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GintOtis Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 ...btw, how do you nudge a third window up against two windows (that are either mulled or not) as you can see from the interior view... it doesn't seem to matter which two, the first two work, the third one won't join.

GintOtis Posted December 4, 2020 Author Share Posted December 4, 2020 yup, just a frieze was needed, thanks, Mark. (as well as that Min. Separation of 0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
