I needed a way to protect outdoor vents from things getting inserted, I was worried about kids bouncy balls or a water hose, but perhaps more practically this protects from mice or tree berries.

After purchasing some stainless steel screen: https://www.amazon.com/Pretty-Stainless-Resisting-Projects-Valchoose/dp/B091GD9ZWW and cutting it to size using the included printable template - the PVC pipe exiting the house was cut at the same angle to prevent rain ingress, then the screen was sandwiched between the PVC pipe and the printable cover.

Needs to be glued or caulked along the back/top edge (opposite the screened angled side) to prevent water ingress.  The gap at the bottom is intentional to allow water to drip out/off and not into the pipe.

Print with PETG to avoid warping caused by direct sunlight.
