[glow=red,2,300]CHEAP SCREEN!!![/glow] I got this tip from my friend Bruce Miller, he uses this screen on many of his Prize Winning 8th scale builds. This is a "Splatter Screen", its at the Dollar Store, for a dollar!  |

This is what I used it for... Here is a way to shape screen to fit in the front grill opening. First trace the shape of the area on to sheet plastic and cut it out. Then trace around the plastic shape leaving about 3/8"extra screen all around and then cut out the screen. Next center the shape on the screen and slowly bend the screen around the shape.  Here is the screen in place, this is my second try, one more time should do it! I need to use a bigger piece of screen next time this one was was a little bit too small after I shaped it  |
