Gentlemen... I feel your pain and frustration.... I had been trying for YEARS to get my hands on a windscreen.... in my extensive research I came across whispers of the possibility of them making them again available in Japan... not sure whenits happening but its a glimmer of hope.
Anyone interested in a case, please PM me. Thanks.

Does anyone on here own a set? They shouldn't be that difficult to replicate. I have access to CAD and a fab shop. We could do a group order.

I had started down this road as well and received support from others here. I ran out of bandwidth and haven't pursued further. I have images and some measurements. PM me or look back in the thread.

You would be a hero amongst us! I have a 3 and 4 unit windscreen. Let me know what you would need.

As most of my gear is currently packed for a trip and I am out of country:
Can anyone comment if yo can use the bamboo insert on top of the stainless box units (assume with the box lid removed? Snow peak shows a 4u with a bunch of boxes in, but no top. Seems silly if you can't...

Unfortunately, no you can’t place a bamboo table insert on top of a SS box.

Yes you absolutely can if we're talking about the same thing. I think you might be referring to this photo?
And these inserts:
You can definitely put the bamboo inserts on top of any of these boxes to cover it as long as you remove the SS lid. I usually bring my 4u and 2unit setups and I make the 2 unit a prep table. So I have a stainless box underneath the bamboo with my dishes in it. I used to put my silverware under another bamboo on the other side, but now with the box hangar, I put it on the outside for easier access.

Correct! It will also fit over two half-boxes side by side, obviously... It makes it nice and tidy that way.
Some pro tips and downsides:
-Make sure you put the finger hold of the bamboo on the outsides when you put the bamboo down, this will make a closer seal in the middle which is important if you decide to cut on the bamboo. You don't want whatever you're cutting to run into your dishes/stuff underneath.
-I now use the SP knife and cutting board on top of the bamboo on this prep table to prevent juices running...
-Keeping stuff that you have to access often under the bamboo kind of sucks. The bamboo is now dirty from prep and you're constantly lifting it to get access. That's why I leave my dishes under there as they are accessed less frequently, but now hang my silverware on the outside of the prep table as I'm constantly digging in there for knives, spatulas, etc, etc. It's not as compact as having everything underneath, but more handy.
-Add the paper towel holder to this prep table and you're golden.
