Lasse, I'd love to see your baffle looks like (the canvas and folded brass plate). I've tried making wooden holders, and this, to me, is the most difficult part.

Spring strips like this are made to form a radio frequency shield for slide-in electronic items. I have yet to find a design that is the right size and cost, though I think some people have had success.
Did you use a saw to cut with the jig, or tin snips? I figure a saw, as snips will tend to deform the sheet. It looks like two sides to the jig, which should avoid distortion.
The construction pictures on the Thingiverse page were very informative.

It took a few iteration to get right.
In the end I got a 0.15 mm brass spring sheet, and cut it to dimensions.
I made a jig for the fingers to cut them out.
And then bended them a little.
As canvas I found some light proof cloth. Probably intended for lights blocking curtains. It's thin (0.45mm), soft and probably polyster or similar. Fairly lint free it seems.
Since I've tried a 0.12 mm steel spring sheet too. Worked as well or even better
Seems to work, but if it stands up for longer abuse we will see.
