Hi Scott--

And everyone else, of course.  I don't chip in very often anymore, and this
is definitely a small chip, but--

My feeling about windows is that they should maximize the view and the
light.  If you have a choice in where they go, consider
a.  The top of the window should be a bit above eye level.
b.  Generally, the top of the windows should be level.  It's visually
jarring to see some higher than others.

The windows in my son Ben's shop, which we built a couple of years ago, are
4 feet square, and the sills are even with the bench top.  That puts the
top of the windows at 7 feet, which works well with the wall framing.

PK
Still here, just don't talk much.
