Good tips and looks great. Just take the extra minute on the front end to pop out the screen frames and lay them on a flat working surface to do this task. 👍
I have installed a few screens, but it was years and years ago. I only have the spline installer roller and the little hook cutter, and this video 100% helped me since I never thought to do anything but have someone pull it taught and trying to install the spline without creasing it into the track first lol. Even though I didn't have rounded over tool, I'm sure that concave one would have sufficed enough to set/crease the screen into the groove. And i wouldent have to pay for some extra hands lol
Generally, you’d also take the screen frames out, if possible, and do all that work on a flat surface, like a work table, which is much, *much* easier.
Not with the system he has, its called Screen Tight. Notice there are 2 grooves in the frame, as well as screw holes. Those are supposed to be mounted to the building first, then attach the screen.
I assumed since he made it a point to say the rounded side is to set/crease the screen into the groove, while the inward concaved side was for installing the spline, that the whole spline was circular. Its been years and years since I've rescreened a lenai, but anyone tackling this job should make this same assumption too? Idk, maybe not haha.

Little random gifts are awesome

I make wooden frames for screens and cut the grooves on with my table saw. The 1/8” Kerf is perfect for the screen and spline.
I love all the videos you make! ❤
I love the experimentation with the format! And this was a fun journey of discovery too!
Great project! I always forget that I should look up how to use that tool when I do screens.
Look managable THANK YOU ................

Say hi to David and Jimmy for me.
That's really cool
WHERE WERE YOU TWO WEEKS AGO
Now I gotta redo my screen so it isn't so ugly
Ya
Wow
If you're replacing the old screens they were replaceable too right?
You forgot to mention to hold your tongue right. 😛
Both sides look round
This feels like a cheat after watching the YT long. Lol
Lol The more you Google!
You don't explain if the rounded side of the spline goes up or down. That is crucial to the screen staying in.
