I really liked the idea of double pane.. But it turned out to be double pain..

The plastic was only 48" wide. My screen frames were too wide to do the wrap-around that I wanted to do..
If I had the double Spline frame, I could have done it..

So, my plan now is to buy 4 more 48" ($50) frame kits and stack the new
ones on top of the old ones..
A little doublesidesticky between them, and I'm done..

But, we have some cold weather coming.. I plan to test this single pane job and see how good it is..
These are over Anderson 'thermalpane' sliders, so we might already be in pretty good shape for a cold winter...
