Here's a stove cover I made. It is a torsion box design (made like a hollow door) so it is light weight, but very flat and resistant to warping. I covered it with a piece of formica laminate. Rubber "feet" on the bottom fit into the stovetop grate so it does not slip even in travel. When the stove is in use the cover stands on end against the side wall and is held in place by the vent hood.
ADK do you have more pictures of this, your post is very intriging.
That's the only pix I have, and my camera is unavailable to me or I would take another for you. I'll give a little more general info for anyone thinking of making a similar cover: A torsion box has an internal grid (this can be made from thin plywood or ripped from solid stock) set into a frame. I can't remember the size of the grid I used, but I would guess 6" X 6" or 4" X 4". The internal grid doesn't show so precision is not real important. The top and bottom skin is just 3/32 luan plywood. The top skin has laminate stuck to it. Gooogle "Torsion Box" and all kinds of info, You-Tube videos and pix will pop-up.
