I bought a titanium windscreen to use with a Toaks 550ml cup and an esbit tri wing stove. I got the one from here; http://qiwiz.net/WindscreensEtc.html/ It's really well made the only problem is when the pot sits on the esbit stove its a little low and the pot sits at an angle due to there being no cut out for the handles in the windscreen. What would be the best tool(s) to use to make a cut out for the pot handles and where would be the best place to make this cut? I have very little experience in DIY'ing anything and am apprehensive about ruining my new windscreen. Also how would I make the edges so they aren't sharp after I cut?

Why don't you ask Qwiz if he would modify it for you?
Hey Jon! I figured I would have to ship it back to him, possibly with the pot, then back to me. I thought it would be easier to buy some tin snips or something and cut it. But I pretty much suck at using tools of this nature. Give me a multimeter, O scope, frequency generator, soldering iron, etc.. and I am good though lol.
That Ti is 0.1 mm thick – maybe i should say 'thin'. A heavy pair of scissors or some tin snips would work fine. Ah … not your better half's dress-making scissors, please! Some fine wet&dry paper will polish the edges very nicely for you. Cheers
