Re: Breather Filters, Yes or No? ADY guys pull in (DIY Pic)
DIY Details, I'm not putting an entire write up. It should be easy to see from the pics
Materials Needed:
1 X Hard Aluminium bottle ( NF ULTRA, Twist Top Drinking Water Bottle or Similar)
2 X Pot Scourers, this will be pushed down to the bottom of the bottle
2 X L Shaped irrigation Elbows (10mm cavity)found at any Hardware
2 X L Shaped irrigation elbows (5mm Cavity)
- The smaller elbow connects directly into the bigger one. Basically the big elbow will be outside the can facing up, while the small one will be inside facing down towards the bottom of the can
1 X Mini Air Filter (Breather)
1 X 12mm PVC pipe (This will fit inside the fiter and will need to be wedged inside the top of the bottle)
3 X Rubber seals, or Pratley. The rubber seals I used I got off an old Aircon compressor. I seen similar ones at the Hardware
Drill some holes, Give it a lick of paint
http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/qq34 ... -01717.jpg
Put everything together
Voila
Done. Sorry for not being so informative. But its easy and the pics will be self explanatory.
Was a fun exercise. And a really cheap idea, that works.
Thanks
