Hey volks, Last week I had the craftsman at me local hware store size and fab a mock up slider screen. He's willing to make as many as I need. I expect they'll be significantly less than $40 (incl. shipping). If anyone's interested, I think this is an item that will be reasonable to ship and we may be able to get a discount for several sets fab'd on one order. I'm planning to get screens for both sliders and both front door windows, BTW. It'll be worth my trouble to handle the paperwork in exchange for the discount we'll likely receive. I'm also planning to determine if a flexible, durable (velcro?) edging can be sourced from the same store and fab'd there by the same fellow, for a rear hatch screen. Let me know if you're interested.
