Hmm. A physicist in Germany who might have the skills to DIY...
It might make economic sense if you took it as a challenge to your
abilities as a physicist - Think of it as a challenge to design a
one-way black/gray body aperture. I think you have everything you need
to /make/ it have economic sense, even in your climate (BICBW).
It _is_ a physics problem, you know. :-D
