How to make and install the screen window of wooden window

Carefully pry open the panel around the screen window with a hard putty knife, pry up the tacks or staples that fix the screen window, then take down the screen window and pull out all the tacks or tacks left on the frame.

Put the new screen window on the window frame, draw the outline of the window frame opening with chalk, and then cut the screen window into a size 3.8 cm larger than the drawn outline.

Clamping the frame or hanging heavy objects on the frame to bend the frame into an arch or an arch, which is convenient for installation. When using the method of hanging heavy objects, put the long side of the frame on two sawmills, and hang 4.5 kilograms of heavy objects on the rope that bypasses the center of the frame. To clip the frame into an arch, put it on a workbench or a wide board that spans two sawmills. Put the C-clip in the center of each long side, fix the frame on the work plane, and then put the long wooden strip at each end between the frame and the work plane. When the C-clamp is tightened, the frame will bend. Arch the screen window frame with a C-clip, a table and two pieces of wood 5X 10 cm.

Cover the frame with gauze and align it along the loose end. Nail the gauze on the wooden frame with a stapler with thick nails, so that the nails are perpendicular to the frame, and the nail spacing is about 5 to 7.5 cm. If you use glass fiber gauze, reduce the trimming by about 2.5 cm, and then nail it firmly. After nailing one end firmly, let loose gauze pass through the clamped frame, tighten it and neatly bypass the opposite end. When operating, we should firmly grasp the gauze and nail the second end into a suitable position, so that the staples are 5 to 7.5 cm apart and at right angles to the frame. Then loosen the gauze or remove the heavy object, and then tighten it after the gauze is straightened. After nailing the two ends firmly, cut off all the excess gauze.

Replace the fillet to cover the fixed edge of gauze.
