I've done a million screens. I can tell right away the screen mouse is the way to go. Alignment is a constant problem that makes you cut the screen and fall off track. Yes, the old-school metal ball bearing like with Everhard is a "better tool" (they are plastic rollers as well) but the plastic keeps you from cutting or falling off track. the dual roller is awesome... Thanks for the vid
And I would also like to say something else. I like everything you do, you can do almost everything. and patent that you work for the same company that I work for. And I am very pleased and more was a very hardworking person 😄
I work for a screen company that pays for production. Sad to say that 15 minutes(from another comment) for one screen will get you no where money wise where I work. I work with a lady that rolls two screens(no matter the size) in under a minute. We tried the mouse before but that takes to much time to go around the corners and it tends to get stuck. It does get the screen nice and tight and keeps the spline straight I can give it that. But we stick with the regular plastic stick rollers( a combination of plastic wheel and wood/metal stick) since we can go faster, and a better screen over all. One down side is that you have to watch how you roll or you will warp the screen bc of pressure..key tip is practice. Also to helps if you block the screen in to help with tension and keep the screens size and shape.
Haha ya , I roll like 1 screen a month these days. I think the mouse is more idiot proof than the classic sturdy roller though. I could see rolling screens in a minute if I did it all day though
Well I still have the same mouse and still using it to rescreen windows and sliders in under 15 minutes, 2 years later, so I may have been lucky but it's held up so far

thanks for the input tony. This screen mouse is still screening strong several months later.
Thank you so much for everything and the screen mouse looks like a very nice tool.
Very good information. I'll get one today!
Thanks for showing us. I like the long yellow plastic screen tool
That's a good screening tool as well
I prefer the old school one, you made it look so easy to make a tight screen! 😭 we use some frames that bow if you try to make them to tight 😫
I just bought this! Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching Jenna!

Thanks so much !! I've been with the company 8 years :)
Oh really wow that’s long time working for them that great 👍🏻. What state you are !
I want to start a side gig fixing screens. Where shouldi buy the parts and tools?
What's screen net you use
Could you show a video using the old school tool as a comparison?
Sure thing, I'll make one soon :)
What type of rubber sealing are you using?
None it’s just screen spline 👍

"Blocking" is key in preventing an "hourglass" shaped finished screen.
@@manlybaker3098 I have had this problem. No idea what "blocking" means in screen replacing? Google is not helping.
It’s been a year, how long did it take you to replace your screen mouse.
Still got it, still use it, holding up strong 💪
I meant that we work for the same company
Well to me I would prefer the old one. The new one is for some one not have been replace it an a screen
The new one is kind of growing on me though I like it so far
No way.
Plastic wheels are a no go for me.
👍 year later still holding up strong 💪
@@ApartmentMaintenancePro ya but how much do you use it?
@@qzetu maybe a few times a month lol, it still sits in my backpack which takes a beating :)
Loose as a goose my guy not a professional I’m hoping
That mouse looks like a real piece of crap

😅 what a joke. How not to do a screen. I can do this faster with absolutely no wrinkles with a regular spline tool
