[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 4028429, member: 14646"] Don't have the proper bits for the router to do it. THe frames are just C-purlin. I feel like a genious but here is what I did to get the cutouts for the windows and it worked awesome. I have a ton of the sticky bottom felt furiture things you put on the bottom of chairs or other furniture so they done scratch the floors when slid. I have these felt pad is rectangles. I cut them into about half inch strips. I cut eight per window. I then took two felt strips per window frame corner and made and "L" shape with them. Sorta like this I_ in each corner. Placed them where I'd want the opening in the plywood. I then took a can of paint and brush and soaked the felt. I then took my plywood and placed it where it needed to go and pressed it hard against the felt transfering the wet paint on the felt to the backside of the plywood. I then layed the wood on the sawhorses and used a straight edge to draw lines to the corners of the wet paint felt markings and jig sawed out the window openings. Sorta hard to explain but it worked great. Just made this crude drawing. THis is my one of my cutouts. THe red markings would have been the paint soaked felt I stuck on the c-purlin window frame. Pressed the wood agains the area it needed to be placed transfering the paint onto the back of plywood. Connected the inside corners of the markings with a pencil line and cut out.
