<snip ideas from babes...or teens>

ha:-)  Actually, after having talked to him about the whole idea, he said that
he had seen something like it at LLC.  Anybody recall such a technique used
there?

Although not 1x1 rounds into the underside of arches, this window treatment
from a building in Miniland(R) at LEGOLAND(R) California demonstrates the
general technique.

Rats!  It's too bad you couldn't get a detailed shot of that window! ;-D  Is
that a mosquito sitting on that window?

Something like that.??

At the time I was more curious about the off-ideal-axis interlace of the
3-fingered levers at their vertex.  Also, the glue-job at the vertex.
Concerning the 1x4x3 white windows below the arch, I was curious where or
how the shutter tabs are not seen since the brick frame around the window is
only 6-wide...or is this window frame a "train window" frame as seen from
the "back"?  Did the shutter tabs get cut off or filed down?  I wish I'd
gotten a side-view of this roof-top window.

I'd say "neither".  Aren't those the windows from the basic buckets that are
2 studs deep?  I couldn't find it in the parts ref, but here is a pic from the
intructions ref that kind of shows what I'm talking about:

Is that "basics" window 3-bricks tall, or 2?  and does its window insert in
2 or 1 piece?  split vertical down the middle?

later,
James Mathis
