The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

You can cut a screen out of another Mig, tool available on fleabay, but its a pain and there is a good chance of cracking it.

Plus you have to buy it from the scrapyard, lift it up and transport it, they are heavy.

You may find you will only save around £40 plus risk damaging it, so have to source another. I bit the  bullet and paid I think around £108 inc for mine.
