broken screens

Make your own out of the kind of epoxy that you mix by kneading two sticks together. Works just like playdough, only stiffer.

If they're mitred corners, sorry, but if they're the other type, those corner pieces are available at most non-borg hardware stores. Tom

Just my luck, they are the ones with the mitered corners.

sometimes it's just quicker to have the local old fashioned hardware store do this, since there are so many parts varieties, but if you want to do the homework lots of choices at:

Does any local store still have the hardware aisle with the pull-out cardboard trays of odd hardware? Or have they all gone to the baggies and blister packs where you are, too? IIRC, 'Sharon' was the company that provided these setups to Tractor Supply- type places, and Ma'n'Pa hardware stores. They usually had a few trays of window and door parts like that.

Failing that, take the screens into a local glass company. They will have parts that work, since that is the business they are in. If nothing else, a bent metal rod potted in place with epoxy might work. In any case, you'll probably have to rescreen the frames, since there won't be enough edge to grab and retension the fabric while pushing the gasket stuff back in the slot, once you put the corner back together.

Thanks. If I can't identify it here I'll try the bent rod and epoxy ameijers suggested. I'd much rather try and fix it myself than pay $20 to the screen guy for a part that costs less than $1.

From a place that makes custom window screens. Look in the Yellow pages
