Here's a quick tutorial I found

it isnt hard but for most landlords it really doesnt pay off....The frames are around 10 bucks and the screen is like 5-10. then you need a couple of tools and sometimes if a window isnt square you have to re-cut one side ..if you didnt measure perfectly the 1st time. even if yu can do 2 screens in an hour, what is an hour of your time worth?
You have to go get all the crap and then do it....thats at least an hour for 2 screens.
I'd much rather pay 60$ and make one phone call to a mobile window guy for 2 screens..thats just me though...I'm not into spending an hour or two, going to home depot , and messing with it to try and save 20 bucks.
again, just me and I am old now. 20 years ago i would spend 5 hours to save 20 bucks
