    No test yet, you know I use to do that for work many moons ago at a plastic plant, making a bunch a junk from plastics, so I had a little experiance in that :/ I wanted it thinner, but it would have meant more cutting with the hacksaw, so I left as it was. I think it might work ;)

    That looks to be some very nice stove top work indeed.

    I think I am going to add this, cut and bend 2 more pieces, glue them inside like in the pic, this will channel the water movement made from the bubbles more over the screen compared to the whole box

    Nice work. Not bad at all for a hacksaw. Lol I also like the mod you're putting in.

    It was a pain, I got better with trial and error, here is some of my errors, hahaha! it really is ugly, I got silicone all over the place, thats my cheeser way of putting in the screen, slides right in and out for easy clean, hahaha! if I had my garage and tools that thing actually would have looked good.
