Bill,
After reading Loren's directions for installation of the windows, I have to say that they are thorough and actually explain in great detail how to accomplish the task. I, erroniously though that it was over complicated. After reading and rereading the steps in his directions, I find it both logical and complete. He has given a real how-to on installing any kind of windows as well as the appropriate way of using Krystal Klear. I believe after reading his directions the modeler now will know how every step goes. It may be long....but very thorough. It actually made the process easier for me after I tried it. I can see no other way of accomplishing the task unless you are not picky about weather the windows are flush or not. The windows on the bulkheads (on the model) protrude a couple thousands of an inch for definition. If you do not care that they are not flush, you could sand or scrape down the exhisting window and glue the frame over the bulkhead....then follow all the rest of Lorens directions.

I was wrong about the directions and my compliments and apologies go out to Loren on how thorough he was. He should include these as well as other posted how-to's in the next edition of the photoetch manual that he produces.

Regards
Jerry
