The timber frame for the double hung windows is about 12mm proud of the wall framework inside.
I have lined the internal wall with 4.5mm cement sheet, and of course this now means the frame of the window is still about 8mm proud.
I cannot plane the frames back, as the internal bead that holds the hung windows in sits almost level with it, maybe pretty difficult to do.
I want to fit any architrave, it does not have to be bullnose. Could I rebate the architrave 8mm on one half of the back side to make it fit flusherer to the cement sheet on the outside? Do you think it would look silly? I may have to use just straight rectangular MDF preprimed 68 x 19mm or so?
