Timberlake, you'd be best advised to secure the help of a local carpenter with a good track record to show you how in your application. Good planning is the place to start, and detailing the placement of your windows at this stage most likely will have to be adaptable to the conditions as they are now. However, you can find some good details in most window supplier spec books. Were you the one with finless vinyl windows? Best of luck.
