i bought a house with casement windows, 3/16" metal frames with single
glass panels in them. They certainly need replaced, and i am
considering doing them myself. how hard is it to get those windows
removed from a building? i have done doors before, and i understand
the principle of installing new windows. for those who have done this
before, what difficulties will i be faced with, and what advice do you
have to get me through them? I certainly dont want to hack out the
old windows and destroy the window sills at the same time.

on a side note, i noticed that Home depot has replacement windows for
about $140.00 each, but that is a standard size and i dont know if
that would fit my application. is there an alternative source for a
good window at a good price? this is a rental unit, so i want
somethign good in there, but just not the best on the market.

thank you to all for suggestions and tips.
