PUKs Cheapo screens

Ho pards,
One of my my ProChronos screens took a turn for the worse and the only place I could get them from was Midway GB

Here is the dealbreaker... the screens themselves £12.00 Not too bad a price BUT Midway GB only order now and again and the cost of P&P £15.00!! YES £15.00 so for 2 plakki screens it was going to cost me... 25.00 GBP  = 39.6686 USD!!! 

It was time ta put me thinkin cap on as I was NOT going to pay them prices!! My next door Neighbour just happens to run a sign making business!! so I went to see him, showed him the screen and asked iffn he had acrylic similar to the screen, "Noooo problem at all" he says... "I have offcuts bigger than that"!!
Next day.... 2 bits of acrylic cut to the exact right size,appear on my doormat.

OK,how am I going to make the bracket jobbies?? stuck stuff would just rip out, Inspiration came in the form of .22 cases!! I pulled the heads tipped the powder and squirted WD 40 into them.
A bit of drilling and eh walla New CUSTOM screens

Total Cost .. a couple of Buds for my neighbour and 4 rds of .22!!
