I’m not 100% certain how I’m putting in the port holes, but… I know I need a hole. Cutting out these framing members will help me layout the next steps. Right?

You should probably put a whole in the top and the bottom.

Thanks Robert. Sound advice.
I’m working on getting the portholes in so that they drain properly. Holes would be important.
I’m working with some big portholes, so the issue will be how to install them onto a flat substrate at the correct angle for drainage. The portholes have a dead light as well, so I need to be able to swing those open/close from the inside.
I think I have it figured now.
