I was able to hack my way to a steamed crust. I have a wok cover. I pulled the handle off and it's stainless steel. Worked awesome. I cant make baguettes but someday.

to cover baguettes.  They are cheap right after Thanksgiving when they go onto the clearance rack.

Looks great!  How was your crumb?  Did it taste as good as it looks?
