Is it possible to make your own spark arrestor?

If you take stainless steel mesh wiring and place it inside the silencer's endcap, would that work to keep the hot glowing particles from escaping the exhaust and possibly causing a forest fire? Afterall, isn't the mesh what makes a spark arrestor a spark arrestor? I've looked on the net to find just an endcap to replace the FMF shorty that I have to make it have an arrestor, but I cannot find one. These are just thoughts. I would like to hit some trails, but I do not want to be a factor in an accidental fire.

Sure you could. But it wouldnt be USFS approved, and so not a legal spark arrestor. I would just pick up a spark arrestor silencer.
