Jotul 602 rear heat shield

[johnnyvirgil]

Since I'm cheap and refuse to buy a piece of bent tin for $170, does anyone know if there is a plan or drawing anywhere showing how to make a Jotul 602 V2 heat shield out of sheet steel? It seems like it would take about 20 minutes and $5.00 to make.

If you have the part on your stove, you should be able to take the measurements off that.

Well, I'm picking the stove up monday, and was a little shocked at the price of the shield. It's this one I'm after: https://www.rockymountainstove.com/jotul-f602-heat-sheild-hs-50/

FYI, it took $28 and an hour.
