I've been using a sunshield I made out of some black mat board for at least a decade now. There's a few little magnets in it to cling to the magnets hidden in my Mac's lid. It's been on like 3-5 computers now, looking increasingly battered; whenever I upgrade I get to see if the magnets are in the same orientation or not.

Works great, I keep it in the padded pocket in my laptop bag next to the computer and the drawing tablet and take it out when I'm sitting in the park.

Have any links to picture, plans, or similar? Or did you just wing it?
I basically winged it. One piece of mat board and a roll of black drafting tape gave me more than enough room to make a first attempt, figure out what I didn't like about it, and make a new one.
