Air Filter!

My mom is gonna be happy with me.

I cleaned out my case today, and looked at the stocking I was using as a filter. I thought to myself "I can't go through these once a month..." so I went downstairs, grabbed a Bounce dryer sheet, and put it inbetween the case frame and the front bezel where the fans are. Now, I've got a filter, and my room smells good too (thanks to the 3 exhaust fans)!

Out of all the filters I've mdae and used; Why didn't I think of the Bounce sheet?

Good idea, I'll remember that!

Cheers,
Mike

LOL, it works really well; as long as you don't mind having a soft smell of "Outdoors Fresh Scent".

Well that's kind'of the idea!

Cheers,
Mike

Wow, do they work well? I was planning to use a stocking, but the Bounce sheet sounds better. BTW, how do you mount it on? With double-sided tape? Or do you screw it in? Newbie here.

As long as you leave the computer on it will suck the dryer sheet onto the fan.

I put a teeny tiny hole in the top of the sheet. The using a twist tie, I fould a little hole in the case frame, and just tied it to that! I did this with the bottom too. It works great! No dog hair or anything in there yet!

i tried that before, works really well, but a few weeks ago, i was wandering around home depot, trying to be inspired and stumpled on some Furnace Filters, they are wicked and only like $3 a pop, they are a metal mesh filter that allows for really good airflow

oooooh, I'll have to try that too! How do they work? I haven't gotten a single dog hair in mine. With the stocking, my computer was like filling up with hair.
