Hey all. Got a small 1/2 bath, and want to add a window for ventilation/light. It's currently 3'x5', and the window would be small, but is large enough to spread accross a stud or two.

Just wondering how to go about doing this. The siding is ol' mdf from the 60's, the inside is just drywall. Do I just carve out the dimensions I need with a saw, build a fram with 2x6's on the inside of the wall, and pop the window in and frame around it? Is it that simple?

Thanks.
