Screen came out just about be like I figured. Rather than driving across town to one of the big boxs I went a couple blocks to a local hardware store. The owner always says he thinks I am a real life Kramer Cosmo from Friends for some reason. Anyhow they do screen and he GAVE me some pieces from some he was redoing. What did I have to lose trying them. ImageImageImage

I deny your reality and substitute my own!

birddog1148, Howdy;

That screen came out beautifully! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Did you just lay it flat across the opening then slide the port-hole
into position to lock it in place? Any special trick needed? Nice clean work.

The pothole attaches from the inside and kind of sticks through the wall. I sealed the part that sticks through with silicone and then there is a flat trim ring on the out side. I put a sealing tape down around the pothole laid screen over that then screwed the trim ring to the outside. I have one more to do and Will try to document better next time.

The guy at the hardware just thought I was independently wealthy and just played with projects all the time. That's why he thought of me as Kramer.
