It looks sharp! Excellent idea on how to keep the window open!

Good looking set up you have there. Be sure to put some sort of cloth on the wood where you're gonna be sliding that plexi-glass up and down so you don't scratch it all up.

nice job, but I'd relook at your window design. that will require two hands to raise and lower. for that size window, you may want to drill a hole in the wood, in the center and have the window rest on that.

Can't wait to see it on location

i thought the same thing and was very angry with my dad when he said it would work but it does work the windows the size they are he put a handle in the middle this week called and said it works and if you just lock one side the window is in there just right to where the other side won't fall
