Matt -- the easiest window I can think of -- for temporary Playa use -- that would meet your needs (no ventillation, just light) could be made like this:
-- Decide your shape. Round? Diamond? Rectangle? Square? -- If round, buy a darning hoop at a crafts store. (Made of wood, in various diameters; they cost from $1.50 to $3 or so.) -- Buy a roll of clear wrap -- the flexi stuff they wrap boxes with after stacking them on pallets, so the load won't shift. -- Wrap your frame. Your hoop, or whatever. (You could form other shapes ((rectangle, square, etc.)) out of metal coathanger wire and wrap them.) -- Cut the hole in the foam slightly smaller than the wrapped window and glue or tape the window on the outside. You might want to attach a piece of mylar-fused bubblewrap insulation on the inside for when you want privacy or for when you want to keep the light or heat out. A piece of cardboard covered in aluminum foil also would do the job. Hope that inspires you. -- ken winston caine On Jul 4, 10:03 am, Milt Fisher <[email protected]> wrote: > > I'd like some recommendations for hexayurt windows.
