Help me with my windows

[FONT=&quot]Guess I’m simply nervous about making a hole in the wall. I have already built the interior framing ad have the window with me. My plan goes like this: [/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]To drill holes in the frame area corners to the outside portion to guide for cutting the sliding.[/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]Scribe between the holes to get the proper area.[/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]Removed a few nails form the sliding portion near the window, so that I can slide the window frame properly. [/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]Remove the sashes form the brand new window and fit it under the sliding. [/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]Leveling the fit spacers and base portion. [/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]Installing the sashes[/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]Doing final touch and squaring up. [/FONT]
· [FONT=&quot]My questions are : Will cutting the vinyl to match the frame size will allow me to slide the vinyl into the window groove? Or should it need to a different size? There is a form under the window sliding, will the window go over that?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]If this is not going to work I’m planning to hire a window installation company (Windowchoice.ca) for assistance, but I’m planning to do it in a small budget. Any inputs will be welcomed. [/FONT]

    This will probably be more suited to the DIY board. Maybe ask for a mod to move it.

    Uhh, the Canadian bit of the USA....

    Actually from a look at their other posts it appears to be a spambot.
