I took Bram's design and reworked it to get a little more room for the
minifigs to work with. The glass from the newer 1 x 4 x 5 town windows is
removable. On the top and bottom are nubs which hold the window into it's
frame. In this application, they hold the window in the tracks.
I like this redesign.  My only vice is the panel being exposed on the
inboard side.  I made some more adjustments to this design (which I lost
because of a stupid mistake) widening it by 1 stud.  I would really like to
be able to stand a minifig in the "interlock" and 3 studs just won't cut it.
The wider frame required 2 sliding panels, and I also constructed an inner
wall to hide them.  plate 3794 inserted under the rail allowed the inner
wall to be right next to the rail.  I am so mad right now for losing the
design, I need a break. :(
