    Help with brick on edge sill

    I have used a sill molding and it looks like I want it too except
    that the external leaf of brickwork extends up past the sill brick.
    how do I get rid of this?

    Is the wall a pony wall with a different finish above? If so, just pull down the top of the lower wall type to the req'd elev (do this in elev. or cross section view). Have you played around with window treatments? There might be a way for you to fix your problem there? You might do a search on the forum as there have been lots of past threads on this sort of subject.

    It is not a pony wall it is a sill molding, I did look at other treads and there was a good one where Louis had done one as I would like it to look but I cant get it quite right.

    Just change the molding profile until you get the look you want. I have 3 brick molding profiles that I use depending on the wall type.

    Thanks
    It's not so much the shape of the molding, how do I stop the wall from passing up through the sill?

    Is the wall passing through the widow or is that the wall on the side of the window?
