When re-screening window solar screens, how do I avoid ...

I start by cutting the piece of material that will fit over the screen leaving about an inch to 2 inches over each side. I take advantage of 1 straight edge of the screen mat and that side in first holding the mesh and the spline at the same time guiding the spline in at the same time holding the material.

Before I start most material comes with a slight bend make sure you have the opposite of an hourglass before you start that way as you screen, it will pull in where needed,then check the center of your measurement. Then I continued around the corner by dimpling the screen in with my finger and running the second side as straight as possible.

Before I run the third side I check for bows, and again I hold the spline and the material as I roll. The last side is your last chance to get rid of the SAG so having your finger slightly dipped into the mesh as you roll will prevent it from being too tight.

And last but not least use your sharp razor blade and hold it on the outside of the spline farthest away from material trimming off excess. If your screen is still too tight try dragging the tip of your finger in front of your spline as you roll to prevent the spline from pulling the material too tight. That should allow you to manufacture at least 15 screens per hour.
