Rolling Screen "Porch" Follows The Breeze FARM HOME Miscellaneous 29-5-2 If you like the idea of sitting outside to read or do crafts but don't like getting eaten alive by bugs, you might like Ken Voigt's 4-ft. rolling screen "porch." The Wausau, Wis. man made it at the suggestion of his daughter, Jamie.
"One nice thing about this project is that almost anybody can build one with a minimum of tools," he says.
"You could make it any size you want and it's easy to move because it's so light. I used pine for the frame with steel brackets at the corners to hold it rigid. It's covered with fiberglass screen with the edges dragging on the ground to seal it. There's no floor." Plastic wheels and two handles make it portable.
"You can move it to the best shade and breeze and sit and read a book in peace. No bugs can bother you," he says.
