I built a Chummy screen from scratch, complete with a curved base from steel box section, which I cut to produce a channel in which to insert the glass.
I did machine up the long top hat ends to go into the steel tube for the hinge, but I could have used coach bolts. I drilled the ends of the hinge tube and brazed nuts to take the home made butterfly bolts, which held the screen open.
Cost wise it was buttons to make, it took me three days and I painted the frame black, but for your Ulster replica, you could always use one of the new chromium finish aerosols for additional poshness!
