    Nice guards! :thumbup:

    I have often thought of guards for one of my AL15A's, both to provide protection against flying vermin and also to provide a modicum of wind protection.

    The standard burner-top one will be fine for above but I wonder if there was ever one devised for the bottom, large enough to cover the Mica Globe? Probably not..... I spy a creation coming up... :lol:

    Alec.

    Anthony that looks very similar to the brass one I have with the description- "Bottom plate for use with mica or vitreosil shades no.900" that I have which was insect proofing for export to tropics.
