I don't do anything without thinking about it...and then thinking about it some more. I have a certain look I was going for in my shop....so it has some visual character and also some function.....those windows do not open....don't need or want them to because the dust will be blown everywhere so I put fixed sash's in....other windows will open but those two I did not want them to....I like lots of panes as it has more personality and a kind of "dated" look. They also offer lots of light in that area....I could have gone with some insulated, vinyl windows but I am putting form ahead of function for the sake of enjoyment....I also could have gone with vinyl siding instead of painting but then that would be boring to look at in my mind. I am just trying to create as I go to make something unique, fun and functional as best I can. Interior walls could be a quick inexpensive plywood or rock but due to the fact that the shop will be heated part time by a wood stove, and pretty damp in the winter when not heated I thought rock would be a mistake.....rough sawn pine perhaps installed vertically might be nice...more work but alot nicer. As for dust? There is going to be dust no matter what I do with the window sills.
