    When summer came, my family turned on electric fans everywhere, which affected me to use the stove to make coffee or tea. I started planning to install a windshield on my Primus No.41 a few days ago.

    1.Use small drilling machine.

    2.Get idea for wind shield style and try to fold it out with paper.

    3.Test with beverage cans for the first time.
    This one is no hole for air convection, and it is difficult to add preheated alcohol.

    5.Installation combination

    Because it gets stuck when closing the case and dug a big hole.

    Excellent, methodical approach and outcome @Koi. My compliments.

    Neat looking power tools. A couple of Dremels and a pair of Teccpo 12-volt lithium battery powered tools are my essential kit.
