i made my filter out of filtrete a few months ago but my OEM AC filter still isnt dirty enuf so ill change it later
for my filtrete filter, i cut one big piece of filter into 4 small pieces that each can fix into the box
then i double layered 2 filters that i cut out and taped the edges together
ill try that out and hopefully the dual layer filter wont restrict too much airflow

I took out my filter the other day and I swear to god it looked like a birds nest - all types of leaves, petals and a variety of dirt!! Looks like I'm going to the home depot for my newest "MOD"...

a cool idea is get the air filters for the home that have like vanilla or cherry scent...they are used for central air vents...when you put those in replacement of the reg filter when you have air from outside come thru it it has a slight hint of vanilly or cherry...preety kool...chekc it out at home depot...
