Subject:Re: FS: Magnetic window screens

I made some myself for my almost westie 84.  A while back I got 3 dozen
magnets on the Internet for some curtains.  About 1/8" by 3/8 x 1/2" very
strong.  I recall paying about $15-20 bucks for them.  We sewed those into
the hems on some curtains and just stick those up on camping trips as
needed.
  That left me another 15-20 extra which I find all kinds of uses for inside
the van...Maps on the dash, glasses cases, etc etc.
  So I got a roll of screen, the plastic kind, and cut peices to fit the
windows I wanted to leave open in bug country.  I carry the screens folded
up under the rear and just stick em on the outside as needed.  Total
cost...maybe ten bucks.  Not fancy..but perfectly workable and acceptable.
