cutting down the screen
Hi, does anyone have any advice on the best way to cut through the standard screen....ie fret saw...hack saw.? Should it be warm when I cut it..? Thanks Steve k

I used a small dremil tool with a cutting disk worked great. Then sanded the edges to smooth them off.

Thanks, didn't think of using a dremil, will try that. Steve

It is injection moulded polycarbonate and if you mark the cut line with a Sharpie you will be able to cut it easily with a hacksaw. No need to heat it and you can sand and polish the cut line with a Dremel and then wet-and-dry sandpaper to get it smooth.

I cut mine with a jigsaw, no problem, use a fine blade, and don't go too fast.

Steve, I've got a stock one I cut down but found that it was better with a tall screen with a flip for windblast.

You can dress the cut edge by pulling a metal rule across it like a scraper.
Gives a nice edge to the plastic. |
