I don’t think they make them exactly like this one anymore.

From my experience the plastic corners only last about a year in the sun but they can be a temporary fix.

That’s actually what I started doing a few weeks after I made this video. I actually flip the frame over cut that piece off then flip it over again and slide it to the end and make the cut and that way I don’t have to even move the angle of the saw. 🫡

Thank you!

Yes! You can send it through Venmo @Joshua-Birdsell-1

Spline should always face the outside

I personally prefer the spline to face the inside of the house, it’s more of a cleaner look & the spline will Not get brittle with the sun beaming down on it. My .02

@@FernandoRodriguez-ds5ri that is fine as far as preference but the design of the window screen is made to face out and pull tabs are on the inside to pull in from the inside of the window. When you get a new window from the factory that’s the way it comes but there is no wrong way that’s just how it is designed. 🫡

You want to bow the screen frame out so when you tighten the screen it will be straight.

Yes you will need adjustable corners. I have them if you need some email me. You will need 7/16 frame for them. JoshuaTheWindowCleaner@gmail.com

I get everything local here.

I’ll have to make a video because it’s hard to explain and depends on the window frame itself.

​Did you make that video about measuring windows to make screens yet?

@@kevinwinkle8091 I do not pull tension. I let the screen pull itself

Aluminum corners

Hey Oscar! You can actually purchase them from us as we are now a dealer for screen materials and tools. I have the spline tool for sale as well. We ship all over the country. If you need anything just email me at JoshuaTheWindowCleaner@gmail.com.

Thank you for your encouragement! I would recommend getting a saw that can cut at 45 degrees. Hope that helps my friend 🤙

We sell them if you need them email me. JoshuaTheWindowCleaner@gmail.com

Not sure it was already in the screen shop when I purchased it 😬

For me it’s faster to flip the stick.

Absolutely because the plastic corners do not last very long. This way is much better quality

Yes I am email me your order and I’ll give you a price. My email is JoshuaTheWindowCleaner@gmail.com also email me your address so I can check price on shipping

For you I would say depending on how long it takes you should be making $150 per hour but this is just my preference. Everyone is different on this and it depends on overhead and location.

I have a manufacturing company here in Southern California that I get everything from. But I am a local supplier.

Yes

I am a supplier so I get them from my vendor.

@@JoshuaTheWindowCleaner where can I get them?

@@redsresearch I’m not sure in your location but I can ship some to you. How many do you need?

Are you local? You can call and order with your screen sizes. We can also take payment over the phone and then your order will be started. 🤗 We ship anywhere in the USA.

I am a local supply shop so I get it from my vendor.

Where can I buy them ? I live in Texas

@@edgarsanchez9017 I would try your local ace hardware store.

Y’all guys don’t sell them ?

@@edgarsanchez9017 yes we do! Shipping would be very expensive for you but if you don’t mind paying it I don’t mind giving you a quote. Email me at JoshuaTheWindowCleaner@gmail.com and let me know what you need. 🫡

$75.00

We are a supply shop here in Southern California. You would need to build the screens with a 45 degree cut for the metal ones to work. I can ship some if you need any. 🤗

​@@JoshuaTheWindowCleanerDo you know what frame cut the plastic ones work with? I replaced all the plastic corners in one window screen, but it didn't seem to fit like I expected them to. And I had the bowing issue also. Now after watching your video, I am certain I can fix the bowing problem. But I couldn't fit the screen back into place, so I wonder what my problem was. The plastic corners seemed to match my old one exactly. 🤷‍♀️

@@Professional_ProCraftinator thank you for your email also! I hope the email helped answer your questions! 🤗

This screen would be about $60 after taxes if you was to come in our shop and ordered one. 🤗

No I use a jig

10” Saw Blade - 200 Tooth - Hi Speed 5/8 Bore

This is the best from what I’ve tried.

Yes I have seen this before. You need to use bigger spline for the channel. What’s happening is your stretching it when you put it in the channel and as time goes by it goes back to its normal size because there is too much room in the spline channel. Try going up .10 maybe even .20 in size see if that helps. Keep me posted. Also weather can play a factor as well if your in a cold environment try doing it in a warmer environment. If that doesn’t fix it let me know what size your using and maybe I can send some your way we have plenty of spline and it wouldn’t cost much to ship it to you. The quality of our spline is top notch.

@@JoshuaTheWindowCleaner Thank you for your response. From your videos, I’ve learned how to rescreen. When doing my own windows, I had no issues (after I got the hang of it) and the results were amazing. There is one business in town and one that is 15 miles away that rescreens. Both are hardware stores and from my experience they seem to not pay too much attention to detail (screen grid not aligned with frame, ripples in mesh, etc). Based on this, I saw an opportunity to provide quality workmanship to those in my area. I’ve started a rescreening business, which I’ve registered with my state and local municipality. This is my first client, and it’s a 21-3/4”x 24-7/8” removable window from an old Larson storm door. The client tried rescreening it herself using .125 spline and had the same issue with shrinkage. I have tried .125, .14 and .16 spline. The .16 spline was very difficult to roll into the channel and I snagged the screen several times attempting to insert it. Also, by the time I finally completed one side and turned the corner, even the .16 had shrunken in the channel. The channel itself is measuring 1/8 inch and I’m using the Phifer BetterVue screen mesh, which recommends .14 to .175 size spline. Having been stumped, I reluctantly took it to the local hardware store, which also used .14 spline. However, where they were satisfied with ripply mesh and a spline gap, chalking it up to “a thing that happens,” I know that I can do better. Regarding the weather, I’m in West Virginia and it’s been in the low to mid 30’s, but I’m working inside my heated basement. Are there special considerations for 4 season climates? Once the immediate shrinkage issue is solved, will changes in the weather cause more expansion/contraction of the spline? Another idea I had was to use a thicker mesh, but the client wants to maximize the light penetrance and visibility. Thankfully, my first client is a good friend. But she is very well connected in my town and I want to do a great job and get referrals.

@@simplifyingthings9069 fantastic!! Thanks for your feedback! West Virginia is beautiful I have lived in Virginia and done work in West Virginia many years ago in the oil field so I understand the climate. My email is JoshuaTheWindowCleaner@gmail.com send me your address and I’ll ship some spline to you and you can tell me if it’s any different then what you are using currently. Good for you on wanting to be quality that’s what made me have the reputation I have in my community. If the spline quality is bad then it will expand and contract as the seasons change for sure but not enough to make a huge difference if you have the proper spline size for the frame. Send me pictures to my email of what your using now as far as spline and frame and let me see if I can diagnose the problem for you and see how I can help. Stay encouraged and I look forward to your email 🤙🇺🇸

@@JoshuaTheWindowCleaner Thanks Joshua. I just sent you the email.

I got the jig from a place in LA

I’m in Bakersfield, Ca. Not too far from LA. Can you share with me the name of the place you got the jig from?

Maybe for some but this is how I have always done it. 🤙

Metric is fine for those who can only count to 10, but after the age of about four or five when you can get to 32 or 64 with little difficulty then you should step up to the Imperial system.

@@wulf67 thats actually a step backwards

@@jondennert It seems to work very well for the wealthiest and most scientifically, technologically, and militarily advanced country on earth. Metric is a third-world system of measurement.

@@wulf67 you can't be describing America? Seriously?

I also use this for a training video for my employees. Believe it or not there are still people who don’t know that. 👍🏼

I disagree. I’m sure you could build window screens just fine measuring in eighths or even quarter-inch increments as long as you were accurate and consistent. You’re not building a piano.

Good idea! I’ll make a video explaining how to do that. This video is just how to build a window screen not how to measure to build a window screen. 👍🏼

@@JoshuaTheWindowCleaner Yes! How to measure the windows for replacement screens. There are several vidoes out there but I find them a bit vague.

@@tomtrowbridge2616 I am working on one now but there is many different windows the one I’m making now is standard in my area. I’ll be posting it tonight so stay tuned. Let me know your thoughts.
