It's very rare to find someone able to get useful points across concisely, in plain language and without a lot of flowery filler. This guy has a real gift for doing so. He could have a real future on UA-cam DIY channels.
This was a great video, should have been done by the manufacturer. Your hints were great, especially the cutting direction. One difficult point to add is how to make sure the corners line up after pounding the mini track onto the special screws. If you are screwing into wood, the grain can make the screws wander just a little bit and make the corners not line up. Doesn't take much to do this. The fix is to simply use a center punch on the straight line which was drawn with the mini track itself. Then pre-drill each hole with a 1/8th drill bit before you screw the screws in.

Great video. Going to do this soon. Thank you!
Would be nice to know the best blade for the saw.
Great video! My track won't snap on the supplied screws. What's the tip for that. What's the distance between the screw and wood?
Nice video but I still finding it hard to install a screen by ourself😅
A chair can be a safe option, just pay attention
Is there a trim piece for the inside that covers the spline?
I did not see this available on the manufacturer website
What gage sline did you find works best? Thanks
0.160 round works best
