Yes, I suppose tha we do...I am usually able to resist! Now, I have to figure out how to add what mesh I ca find. Starting with an ol strainer. It may be in too bad of shape.

Seriously - give a few more hours and you'll be feeling better about it.

Right.
I don’t think a few hours will do it. Maybe. I have no idea how to fix in place, the mesh for the vents I opened. The plastic is too thick to simply glue it to the back.

Do you have a Dremel to grind down the inner face of the plastic? You can make a nice surrounding area for gluing in the mesh that way.

I do. That was the only option I could think of. Should be a “hold my beer moment”! I never know how thi plastic will react.

Very understandable Lyle... that plastic looks most fragile... you’re gonna need the lightest touch...

Nylon mesh tea bags? I think those are used by Starbucks. You could ask. Maybe they would let you have a few. Give ‘em a couple bucks for a tip.
