when putting screen into a frame, is to get all the sags out. Has
anyone got any tips for this?


Lay the frame on a table/bench (I usually use my picnic table). Put a
block under the top and bottom of the frame an use a couple of "C"
clamps in the center of the frame to clamp the frame to the table/bench
cause the frame to slightly bow. Fasten the screen at the top and the
bottom of the frame. When the "C" clamps are removed the bow will
straighten out tensioning the screen.


Damn! Another good idea to file away. Thanks!
