I really like what you did - doing something very similar. I've seen some tests and I think the fiberglass fabric might be too restrictive of the venting, so I may just use dense wool between the two screens, without the fiberglass. Also I think stainless steel wool might be more flame resistent, but I can't find it except for a huge roll on Amazon - so I'll try bronze too. Good ideas... let me know if you ever get to test it.
ReplyDeleteNice job Tri. How did you make those clean holes in the lid? And, could you describe what it took to make the rivets? Thanks
ReplyDeleteHi Steve, the holes were made using a hole saw made to cut metal, and the rivets were made with a rivet gun.
