Has anyone built a 3-sided windscreen that folds? If so, would you mind sharing the size of your panels?
Did you use any special type of hinges?
Would the hinges leave too much of a gap at the corners for the wind to drive up the WSM temps?
Would a brace be needed across the top near the open ends to keep the screen from collapsing?
Would it be helpful to add a couple of handles at the top to make it easier to move?
On Christmas it was quite blustery here and I had the devil of a time trying to keep the temps down, even though I leaned a couple of auto drip pans against the sides of the cooker and finally had to close the top vent about 66%.
It's dark outside now and I'm going to go out and shine a flashlight from inside the WSM to see if I can find any large gaps.
Thanks in advance for your tips,
Rita
