One of the best videos i've seen on youtube. No nonsense intro...no time wasting...simple and stuck to the subject.
And a brilliant tutorial. Bravo.
Brilliant. Thank you! Fully have confidence to build my own fly screens. Legend.
Thank you so much Bill, that was an amazing help! I'm so proud that I have made a flyscreen! Your tutorial was straightforward and easy to follow. Thanks again
This was terrific! I’m confident I can make these for our new house and save so much on custom made ones! Thank you!
That was genuinely the most straight forward excellent tutorial
Thanks Bill . Simple and to the point , No BS.😀
THANK'S MATE. GOT MY MATERIAL AND READY TO GO. J
Very, very well done, Bill. Am waiting for written quote to have four made up. I think I might make them myself, thanks to you.
Watching from Melbourne.
You’re very welcome 👍
Show us how it fits the window and how to keep it there please!
Use detergent and soap up the two top corners. Place those two corners into the frame at 45 degrees or less if you can and slide an rotate the fly screen. Once they are in position, lift the fly screen up as far as you can and the bottom two corners should simply pushed into the frame.
The detergent really makes a big difference.
Thanks, Bill. Very clear tutorial. I've started my screens and it's working well so far.
Thanks Bill. Very helpful.
Oh thankyou Bill! You’re a lifesaver!
Thank-you Bill! I made 5 flyscreens on the weekend. All installed and for the first time since we moved into the house, we've had the windows open! Makes such a difference as the weather is warming up.
Next problem - the windows are from the 70's, with these corkscrews in the sides of the frames, and presumably 2 of them have failed, because a previous owner has pop riveted them closed! :}
Thank you so much Bill
for this very clear tutorial .
I feel more confident now that I can do this . Thank you again , much appreciated 😊

Helpful vidio sir
Thanks Bill - great job! I'm doing these today and your tutorial was perfect :)
Great video
Thanks Bill, very helpful, especially for this summer.
👍

Great job. Thank you
Thank you very much. Very clear explanation
Excellent. TQ
This was really good, thank you!
Glad it helped!
This video was so helpful. Thank you 🙏
Well I never knew. Thank You!
👍
Thanks for your tutorial, what abouts fixing the little things to hold the fly screen in place?
What a legend!
Thanks Brother.
Thanks for the tutorial!!
Awesome, thanks Bill. Your tutorial was so helpful, loved your tips which all made sense.
Do you have any pointers on hinged screens & adding bracing please? Im screening our old Queenslander casement windows which would suit hinges rather than tracks. Cheers
I now know how to mitre correctly and what I need to buy. I can stop stapling new screen over old timber screen frames and make new frames! Excellent demonstration, Thanks 🙏🏼 Do you have a demo of how to fix (install) the screen to the window?
Great job. Well explained
👍
Thanks
thanks, mate
Thank you
Great video and I would love to see what margin you left for fitting it into the window. In other words measuring up the job.
Yes, I would like o see that too. I juat made a flyscreen too big. I thought I had left enough space but I hadn't.
Me too, I need to know how to measure up for making a new fly screen. Great video for making.
Good vid thanks for the help
Thank you it’s really helpful
👍
This was a terrific simple tutorial. I have no window recess and a handle that protrudes beyond the frame how can I get around this. A roller shutter wouldn’t work unless I take the roller blind off the window. Any ideas? I’d love to see how you fit this to your own window too
Great tutorial. Question though, I want to install a window air conditioner unit into a sliding window with the flyscreen, can I make a frame that incorporates the ac unit (so it has a few extra corners rather than a normal rectangle) and install it that way?
Legend
Thanks Bill. Such a clear and easy-to-follow video! I have made my fly screen and it's perfect. However, I have awning windows and have to cut a chunk out of the bottom (leaving just the trench for the spline) to fit over the wind-out mechanism. Do you know what tool I would nee and how I can achieve this? The hack saw can do the vertical cut (although it is tricky because it is higher than my angle-cut thing), but I can't work out how to successfully make a horizontal cut. Any ideas?
How do you measure so that the screen fits in but doesn’t fall out?
I want to know too
@@rafac13 I'm guessing make it a millimeter or so bigger. I'm going to make one in a week, I'll report back if I remember. If it's a little loose, you can get little swivel tabs that flip open and shut to hold the screen securely.
I had a plastic channel system on my windows. They seemed like a good idea - the screen slides up and down but they were removed for a painting job and now I need to try and make new fly screen frames and thinking clips might be easier? Not sure! Need a demo video Bill 🤓
Cheers
Thanks for this, do you have one for a sliding door fly screen?
Good job fella 😁
Thanks for sharing. Very clearly explained.
Please may you advise the link where the required diy materials may be sourced online.
Hey Bill, that was great mate. Could you please show the best way to fit to the window?
hi, if you go through my videos you will find one on how to install and remove them 👍
I had an expert replace fly screen mesh on my fly screen panels and he used pegs to add some tension to the mesh, that's what I thought. But doing it this way makes it look easy, is that how it works?
Good Day ...
Where can I buy the aluminium framing and the roller plus the spline ...?
How would you join two sides together, or even 4 to make a rectangle, i am more interested in a rectangle
Great video mate 🤙
Thanks 👍
Do you have a video about flyscreen wheels? Thinking about making my own doors
What about Window winder recesses?
Hi Bill
Can I know how to measure the frame please?
Hey mate.
How do you install a long narrow fly screen like the one you made In this video?
I have replaced the bigger square ones before with easy. but when it came to my bathroom window. I couldn't get it back in. Seems the small ones are way harder to install cause they have less give.
Anyways my bathroom has been fly screen less for 2 weeks now
Any tips?
Thank you
👍
What about Sliding Windows that have a channel, top and bottom?
Powertec!👍
Nice video bro, I skipped ahead coz I've done the flyscreen repairs part. However I was wondering how much overlap you like your frame to have as to nestle into the flyscreen slot on the window frame? So if window is 700W would you add say 10mm either side so it slots in nicely?
Yeah exactly, this vid is great, but totally missing the part where he measures up the window, and the part where he installs it!
My problem is not to do fram but net always bending in the middle . To soft material must be made of metal .Steel calabon
How does the flyscreen hold in position what did u use
How do you make the frame for the fly screen
Anyone from the UK know where to get the aluminium framing from? Especially with the rope channel.
And where or how to install the retaining clips please ?
What are the name for these kinds of frames and the thing you roll inside? I have no idea what to search for here in Norway.
The roller is called a spline roller and the frame is flyscreen frame 👍
Where can I buy aliminium framing
All hardware stores have them 👍
You can learn more about it on Woodprix website I think.
where's remove and installatiojn plz?
I have a separate video for that👍
Why didn't you show how to measure up the opening and then fit and secure the screen to it?
He should have shown us how to pour the slab for the house too in the same video.
thankyou for that. you made it look easy
What products u use o mean what’s name of the item u use so I can buy from buning
