I f*(*&#$ing hate repairing window screens.
@rpardee We had to repair/replace our screens with the special animal screening. It’s plasticy and gives but bounces back after our 18lb hangs from it. 🤣🤣🤣
@rpardee patching or replacing? doesn’t really matter/-big time suckage either way. courage!
@northernbassist Replacing from where the cat broke out a week ago--she bent the frame & tore the bottom.
I just could not get that spline in w/out tearing my own holes in the thing.
Gave up, cooled off, watched a youtube video (which declared that it's the easiest thing in the world to do). Fished the screen material back out of the garbage, tried again--same result.
@rpardee i gave up and just bought a new door. could never get the frame square again after my cattle dog busted through it. have yards of that rubber rope material, just in case.
@northernbassist LOL--I feel ya'. Same here.
Last time we had the house painted the painter offered to repair our screens for a nominal fee--gonna see if he can come back out...
@northernbassist I have since salved my home repair machismo by successfully replacing a toilet seat and a flusher arm.
@rpardee major bonus points for toilet work! take tomorrow off.
Even worse: failing to repair window screens.
Damned cat!
