I thought that the 1x1 w/side stud was a recessed side stud.  Wouldn't that
leave a gap?  I believe that we are going to be having these windows only
get one stud on each side connecting this way.  Even still, as long as they
are staggered (one side on the top and one on the bottom) and the window is
sandwiched, it will be virtually impossible for it to turn.

Yes, and with the "bottom" having two attachment points, (1.2 and 1x1
w/side stud turned sideways) the top having only one should still be
plenty to keep the windows securely held.

(...) Yes. HOWEVER, the trick is to turn this piece sideways (so that the normal "back" is on the bottom), then put a plate on top. If you do that, the height is one brick, there is a stud AT THE BOTTOM EDGE of the face, and the stud is flush with (...) (25 years ago, 28-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
