If your goal is to see outside, thin plexiglass taped to the exterior of the opening seems like it would work to me.
The hinged cutout worked well with the Hexacomb H12 we built in '09. We did need to create a "handle" to pull the cutouts in and out We also sealed (taped) a furnace filter to the outside of the opening to provide air flow, deal with dust and let in filtered light. The openings were centered in opposing side walls about 3 ft off the ground, with the hope of creating a cross breeze. In practice, the filters clogged with dust within hours, were annoying to clean and the cross breeze was minimal. Partial success - I vowed to try an alternative the next time. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/21ziiAdzDmL._SL500_AA300_.jpg -Mark On Jul 4, 1:03 pm, Milt Fisher <[email protected]> wrote: > > I'd like some recommendations for hexayurt windows.
