This nice discussion of very fine mesh is from another list. Looks like much useful information. Ted Larson
I'm not exactly sure what you are looking for, but, there is some pretty nice screen material available cheap if you by Lipton Green Tea in the pyramid bags. These are not made of the ususal filter paper but instead are made of a fine mesh. After you drink the tea (Supposed to be good for your prostate!), cut open the bag and you have about 3 square inches of material. 24 bags cost about #3.00 Steve Kay --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], "John Alaniva" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Does anyone have source for window screens as used on cabooses?

Here is a source I found with Google for screen down to about .0012, or more than 2x as fine as the Smallparts finest mesh. I'm pretty sure that it is available finer than this but I wouldn't know where to find it. http://www.twpinc.com/twp/jsp/product.jsp?type=12&itemId=98&page=buy<http://www.twpinc.com/twp/jsp/product.jsp?type=12&itemId=98&page=buy> -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: "DR Stinson" > That painted fabric idea sounds interesting.
