Stuck my hand in around the back and the air coming out is (surprisingly) not very hot.
I suppose I was imaging something like a hair drier where it can burn if you hold you
hand right up to it.
Anyway will make something up. Happy wife happy life.
Roger.

If you are very concerned, you can make a mold with PLA, then use a silicone casting material that can be similarly food safe and high temp resistance.
