wire mesh (engine covers)


trying to make up some covers to go round my engine.
I'm thinking of using heavy gauge steel wire mesh (ala bird avary).

what sort of mesh did you guys use?
and,
If any of you live in Sydney, and the west the in particular,
Where did you get it?

I really wanna do it tomorrow so quick response would be very helpful,

Thanx :)
