The rest of the box was made with off the shelf redwood from a well known UK building supplier. The box has contact with masonry on the cill (of course!), the shape of the stone cill it sits on tapers away on the outside. The underside of the wooden cill is sealed with some oakum and putty. The box is held in place in its reveal by sliding wedges.
There is then the gap between the outer layer of brick, and the outer face of the window. I need to mortar this.
