This week I did some rescreening for the first time. I had looked at different websites for tips on how to do it but they weren't all that helpful. It seems that my problem is that I can't get the screen (fiberglass) as tight as what I think they should be. My screens from
20 years ago which are disintegrating are tighter than the ones I did.Another problem is that the frames (aluminum, I think) seem a little fragile. Most of them are bent, warped, or bowed a little so I think that makes the rescreening more difficult. Unfortunately, there's not much I can do about that (don't ask).
Does it matter if the screens are not very tight? They're not loose and wavy, I guess they're somewhat snug. Does anyone have some tips on how to get them tighter without bending the frame?
