Don't mean to state the obvious but it sounds like the spline was too large, they come in several different sizes.

aluminum screen is superior.

One thing I learned when doing this for the first time is that the spline comes in about 5 or 6 different diameters. It sounds like the spline you were using was too big for the frame.Why they make different diameters is beyond me, but there ya go..

I just tried this out earlier myself (making an animal cage) and it was a complete PITA. I used one of the DIY window kits. I had to press in very hard, the stuff wouldn't just roll in like that.

If your having problems with the spline, put a little dish soap and water on it to lube it up and it will slide in easier.

Half-assed.

Huh? When I do this I have to push *like mad* (cursing, sweating, taking sanity breaks) to get the screen & spline in the groove, and when I use the wheel with the groove in it I end up cutting the screen! Is a nightmare. Maybe my older windows have smaller grooves? |
