Hello happy builders,
fiddling around with round windows I came up with some new creations.
The construction for round windows was found in this folder:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=114824 (hanibal).
Playing around with these round windows,
I came up with the idea of using a Turntable 2 x 2 Plate, Base
(3680) that makes a perfect frame for the round window.
Now the top is removed from teh turntable,
there is exactly space for 4 trans plates 1x1 (round or square)
to suggest a stained glass window.
Nice side-effect is that the total is not thicker than 2 bricks.

I don’t know if anyone ever has come up with this idea of making
a round framed window. Sure I like to take credits for this idea,
but let me know if there has been someone else who has to be credited :-)
The same idea is also incorporated in a cathedral vignet (try out):

Please feel free to use this ideas in any kind of your mocs
and please let me know what you think.

Great stuff, Daan!
You can also (just barely) fit a wheel into that round window, as I have in one
of my medieval houses.
I’ve also used the turntable bottom as a
mullion before, but it
looks even better in the round space, especially with the stained glass.
