Kickass mod and great tutorial. These would be especially great for doing pizza cooks!

because of all the interest I added a few design notes and pics

when cutting the bottoms, clip the sharp point for safety, also note the top fold is cut back to help in fitting

and see where the bottom hole was enlarged, this is so the vents overlap

Jammato

notice the cut is not a 90 degree, the bottoms and sides are not 90 degrees, also see where I had to cut a bit more back near the bottom, this was for fitting purposes

Jammato

on the other bottom the bend is not on a 90 either as shown here, also you need to cut for clearance again once bent

back side shows the angle of the bend  better

to make sure alignments were kept right, I clamped, drilled, bolted, then realigned and did the next, and so on

on the back sides, one tab cut on one side of one piece and the opposite side of the other

put the back tabs in place and bend them so that the 3rd sections overlap, drill bolt realign drill bolt and do the third bolt
the thing kind of floats there like it does in the original setup, just a bit floppier.
