Ok, as some of you might know, I'm getting a monster tank and will be hauling it through my window.
Well, I can't figure out how to remove the window without breaking the pins or spring on the sides. I've removed a window before but I broke it.
So, does anyone have experience with this???

Looks like a tilt window?Tips in so you can clean the outside?If so you can usually tilt it in then push one side up a bit and itll pop right out.Careful though dont break anything!

Yea, that's right.
Is it as easy to get back in as it is to get out?
 
if your renting, just break it and just put it back together so it looks right. if it's your house you should probably use a more civilized method

Pry out the corner mouldings and go between the window frame and the house with a sawzall! Go all the way around! Ta-da! Window out!

Second that. Take the sash, which it the glass sliding part and open the window slightly, then there should be a latch allowing you to tilt the sash towards you. Once you have it tilted out and at a 90* angle to the rest of the window tilt one of the interior sides up until the pivot pin pops out of the sliding cam. Then just lift the other side up and at an angle take the sash out.
 
i am a window fitter in the uk i do these on a regular basis, there should be a frame model number or make on it the best thing to do is look it up on the internet, but basically the bottom flaps open as the pics above then drop the top1, and fold that open too and then push it to the top and then it will look like it has hinges at the top and bottom but sum1 will have to hold the top 1 open. sorry i cant be there to help LOL
