There's a few on ebay. Aluminium makes cutting and bending easier

its 18 gauge steel, but 16 gauge aluminium would be better. i can get it either way and bent as well. powder coating isnt a issue.

i have got a local perforated mesh stockist i am going to do it as it was when new so i will l be using steel and getting the whole shroud powder coated
although looking at the shrouds base it actually looks like it was stove enameled ?

As soon as u try to get the paint off those shrouds you realize they are powdercoated for sure.

Innotec paint stripper doesn´t work on it.

just grab regular piece of aluminum and get busy with a drill press!
