Steamboat Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Really nice screen set! I had asked you this before, but I guess you missed it: What woven wire mesh size are you using, and do you have a preferred source for your woven wire? I'm planning to make a few fireplace screens in the near future. Al (Steamboat) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daswulf Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Awesome work Jeremy, but could we expect less? How'd you scribe it? Board paper tracing then transfer and cut/ grind it out of the metal? Or? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 That is just a fabulous set of doors and they fit in effortlessly with the decor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy k Posted October 8, 2018 Author Share Posted October 8, 2018 Al - if I recall the mesh I used is #6? Most fire places have a lot smaller mesh size( more wires per inch ) this one is exceptionally bigger, hence the beefier mesh I used. Can't recall the supplier off hand, somewhere on the east coast I know. I don't buy mesh very often, so ever time I need to search for a supplier.

Steamboat Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Thanks, Jeremy. I'm trying to decide on the best compromise between the appearance of the mesh itself, its relative rigidity, and the visibility of the fire through the mesh. I do like the looks of the mesh you used. I have four (and eventually five) screens to make for our old-house project, so I think it might be worth ordering a sample set of meshes and do a side-by-side comparison.
