i rescreen them.    carefully remove old screen, scrape off old residue, then
cut new screen and hotmelt glue it in.  i use regular screening..doesnt rot
like the nylon stuff does.   i place a phonebook on the screen while hotmelt
gluing it in so the screen stays flat.

fyi, i have some oem westy screens for sale if anyones interested...
