Has anyone here tried this?

I've been surfing in vain for louvered panels, so wondered if anyone has
any tips they could pass on?

It's not that difficult to build a Stevenson screen. You need
reasonable woodworking skills and a fair amount of time. The raw
materials will set you back around £200 though, and there's the stand
on top of that, so the newer plastic screens are not as expensive as
they seem (and of course they'll need no maintenance). If you're
interested I have a copy of the 1937 HMSO plans to make one; my father-
in-law built me one (the large variant) in woodworking classes almost
15 years ago now and it's still in perfect condition.
