I had thought about that and figured if there was enough heat to scorch the wood I would add a metal heat cover but I've brewed on it twice and there hasnt been any problems. That is one reason I left my burners open instead of boxing them in.
I made the paddle but I should see if Niko would want to sell some. We are both from Idaho. My livestock brand is a stylized bear track and I have always thought a paddle with just holes in it is boring. His is more of a front track but I could do it.
How much would someone pay for a paddle like that?
