  • Ventilation and window screen are discussed in this video. A simple way to make window screen (a modified version from Rincon Steve) is described.
    Updated 7-30-2021: the blue portable fan I bought from Amazon is no longer available. There is a similar one with longer running time you may consider:

    Once again, I have to thank you for sharing your methods. I love the screen you made, and making a small version so it isn't as obvious is a great idea as well. I really appreciate your kindness in sharing your methods. You have given me so very much inspiration

    Good morning! New day, New week, and I am a new sub. This video won me over. This is something I can see myself being able to make.
    I have seen this on some other channels, but you are very good at mechanics, shop, and giving instructions.
    Thanks for taking us step by step thru the process. I will definitely try this if I get a van with a window as such. It should also work on many trucks, jeeps, cars and buses as well.🙂

    We have purchased mesh window screens (a little sturdier than the typical mosquito net) for our 2018 Sienna. These go over the door frame. We simply slip them from the top when the front door is open, and tighten them from the inside. Once to door is closed, the glass can be raised or lowered at a desirable height.
    No tools needed and all it takes is 1 minute.

    I thought the gutter guard screen holes are not fine enough to prevent the bugs. Since you have used it, it should be good. Thanks for sharing.

    • @ShenYe01

      The gutter guard alone is not enough. It needs a piece of window screen as shown in the video.

    • @ShenYe01
      @ShenYe01  3 роки тому +1

      That small cut out if from the gutter guard. It does not affect making the window screen, because it will be covered by screen and tapes.

    • @ShenYe01
      @ShenYe01  3 роки тому +1

      The gutter guard is 3' long, a little short to cover the whole window. Nylon strap serve two purposes: 1) extend the screen to cover the whole window; 2) it is flexible enough to extend into the window side channel to provide a snug fit.
