Where did you get the mesh from? Was it hard to mod?

Default Home Depot for mesh and paint. used a dremel to cut out shape,
that was probably the hardest part, just cutting a good shape. The middle is actually in 2 pieces but I think i did it good enough that you can't see it unless you are a foot away.

I'll have to do something solid. Lots of snow/slush at this height in winter.
