Step 1: goto the dollar store and pick up a splatter screen for frying pans.
Step 2: take a pen and stab the screen
Step 3: cut the screen out
Step 4: cut to desired size
Step 5: clamp onto the pipe and install.

Thanks for the idea BBKA!

Total project cost: $1.15 canadian

niiiiice...but how safe is that?? i know it'll keep rocks out but what about dust

 

Dust, smust. I want a pic of it done.

 

WOW!So in the states that would only cost me $0.000001 :P

 

dust? what's that?? :P In NM we have the most wicked dust storms EVAR. my filter is a high quality double layer of screen material clamped over my compressor inlet.

 

i made one out of 2 layers of window screen with a piece of surgical gauze between them. it was too restrictive. i went back to using my small k&n big block breather filter.

 

 

its works, but a few layers is better then 1

 

my 'filter' is a red rag pulled 'snuggly' (dont want it too tight, streches it making bigger holes) clamped over the inlet. ****** gets black after a couple weeks im not going to buy a real filter it would just be a waste of money....

im down to try the screen though, im not worried about micoscopic dirt, its the big ---- you need to worry about...

 

nice carpet, looks like my elementary classroom.
