I've done lots and lots of screens, but never had the 'correct' tool...
I just use a suitable shaped length of gas-welding rod clamped in a set of mole-grips.
Bish bash bosh. Job done and it costs even less than a one-way postage stamp from bridgend.

DIY method same as daves

length of coat hanger wire made into a diamond shape that is slightly bigger than the fillet strip.

Twist and push ends into a old file handle / cut down broom handle etc. Job done.
