Have a large screen porch coming up that has arches that is 9ft wide with a raise of a one foot, width between columns is about 8ft.
The columns are covered with stucco like material. Will be using western cedar 2x for framing in of porch. How is the best way to make the arches and attach to the existing columns without damaging the finish. Also how to attach the screen, the builder doesn’t want the screen stapled to the 2x. Thought about the screen tight pvc tracks, how would you shape them to the arches.Could the 2x be routed for the spline what size of the groove for .175 spline. Thank you for your suggestions
