Maybe a jelly roll pan (looks like a cookie sheet with high sides)? I am going to use a big (but thin/lightweight) butcher block type cutting board (Wal-Mart) w/attached feet (going to Lowes tomorrow).

Thanks! I ended up getting "feet" at a craft store. They are actually little wooden barrels meant to be used for dollhouses or train set landcape, etc. I'm going to finish it today....hopefully.

What a great idea Neadmo! Thanks for sharing. I like it better than the one I made. I made it from a chopping block I bought at Walmart and glued legs on it.

I went to Wally World and picked one of these up. I think it's the same color as yours. Looking forward to putting it all together when I get some time. This was a wonderful idea and very inexpensive.

Glad the pics helped.  The legs (when placed correctly around the stove edge, keep the cover in place so that it can sit there during travel.   Glad it worked out for so many people.

For the backsplash, instead of sheet metal you might try just a piece of formica.  You could also check with local shops that deal with it and get it cut to fit.  Just a thought.
 
Here's a link for places that carry it or where to look.
