Paul's suggestion of slip rolls is probaby the easiest.  With two
people, you can work a piece of screen back and forth over a piece of
ca. 4" pipe or one of those tinsmith's madrels, the big, long kind
used for lockseaming and riveting stove pipe.  Clumsy but doable.
Doesn't work too well near the ends unless you make a clamp to hold
the whole width uniformly.
