Fastenal has a lot more stuff than I ever realized, so might be worth checking into.

Unknown, Danny, if this "wire cloth" as it is referred to, is welded or not.
Once you specify 'welded', the opening size choices dimenish greatly ... MSC only lists 'welded' is as fine as 4/inch.
The listing above are the offerings from fastenal.

... I'll make it myself if necessary! LOL

Thanks for info guys. Looks like what I got is a industry standard and smallest hole dia that is made. Called all the big name guys and was told the same thing. So the .022 will have to work.

Danny, you leaving them open behind the screen? I could see you hammering out some baffles that would let the air in but redirect the rain.
