Small Sun Screen (Stevenson Screen) for 1-wire temperature sensors

I've Been Searching for a Compact Sun Screen for My Outdoor Temperature Sensors but Came Up Empty Handed. I Mainly Use 1-Wire (DS18B20) Sensors But Anything Small Enough to Fit Will Do. After Trying Out Multiple Ideas, I Decided to Design One That Can Be Printed with Fewer Separate Parts Than the Rest. The Main Screen is Printed as a Single Unit and the Mount is Designed to Attach Separately. I'll be Expanding on the Design Later to Include Additional Mounting Options. Note that I've Also Created a Larger Version of the Sun Screen Which I Will Be Comparing It to the Smaller One, As There May Be an Excessive Buildup of Heat in the Smaller Design. Here's How You Should Go About Printing and Assembling the Sun Screen: First, Print the Screen Using 100% Fill, And the Mount With Less Filling (20-50%) - This Will Help Minimize Heat-Buildup from the Sun. Also, Use White Filament to Reduce Heat Generation as Much as Possible. You Have a Few Options for Securing the Sensor: Glue It in Place or Attach It with a Cable Tie. Lastly, the Efficiency of the Screen Has Not Yet Been Tested, If You've Conducted Any Analysis Please Keep Me Updated on Your Results.
