If you're one of the lucky ducks who live in a southern state, you'll be able to enjoy this outdoor screen for even longer than the rest of us will. Then, once winter is knocking on our doors, we can store it away until springtime. It only takes a few steps to create!

Step 2: Clean Up The Edges Of The Pipes

Use a file to clean up the edges of the pipes.
