Man....I wish they had the guards and upper trays back when I ordered my SS 3.5" pan from BASS.

Question: Do you have to use the SS pan to use the guards and are they easy to attach / remove? I am using one of my DCNs as a bird cage and those creatures make a huge mess..If I could use guards on some of the sides, I think that would greatly cut down on the mess I clean up daily.

My SS pans have held up for 3+ years now BTW, great wear, easy to clean... very glad I got them.
