I've had good results screening wind from a Josepheson Jecklin Disc
and AT3032 stereo rig using a collapsible, Exo Terra "Explorarium 45"
(http://www.exo-terra.com/en/products/explorarium.php), and ten yards
of nylon mesh tulle loosely wrapped around the disc. The disc and
mics will fit through the larger side opening, and securely mount to
a mic stand or C stand through either the top or side openings, or
just hung from a loop at the top. The cage leaves a lot of room for
creative positioning and is cheap. Hope that helps. Bill
