well you can make a panel out of 3mm ply and cover it in a laminate or you can buy the panels ready made for the ready made version try o,learys if you go into the directory on this site you will find them, they deal in a lot of end of line stuff.

Or you can even find the panels on ebay at a reasonable cost.

hope this is some help to you please let us all know how you decide to go forward with the project .

Hi brittle, I fitted  an asbestos type of heat resistant board (it is not asbestos) about two years ago around my oven and it can be bought cut to size, cant remember the name of the stuff, and it was'nt that expensive, bought it from a pluming engineers near to where i live, going by that way tuesday after noon will call into them and find out what it is called, thats if i can get out and about as snowed in at present.

Hi Brittle, out to day and found the plumbbers shop, the board is called Superflex.

bad news is that city plumbing no longer sell it in any of thier shops through out the UK, though some of thier branches may have some old stock left, worth a try. asked assistant if any other companies sell that product, said a company called PTS but did not know what initals stood for,so not much help there.and if one plumber chain has herd of it so might the rest, sorry not much help on this.

Hi brittle, Correction on the name it is called Superflux,and sounds same stuff as Pete1946 has mentioned, and gives you more options, plumbers and boataccesories shops. John
