Material needed for dust filter

Go to solution Solved by W-L,

No holes in top cover but if you see the 760T you'll realize that the top cover has no ventilation at all and if you remove the cover I think it looks bad IMO so I want to know if there is sheets of fan filter so I can cut my own hole in the top cover to provide ventilation and a dust filter while still looking good. 

If i remember correctly you wanted to cut a ventilation hole in the 760T top plastic cover.

 

For filtering you should probably add a metal mesh to the opening and get some fine nylon filter to use as a dust filter material just under the metal mesh.

I want a mesh material that will filter dust. I plan to cut a hole the top cover of the 760T and tape in a mesh on the inside of the cover to filter dust.

buy fan filters.

 

 

The top of the 760T doesn't have fan filters. EDIT: The shape of the hole is an odd shape.

so you need the top to be completely covered?

 

There is a hole in the top cover of the 760T that I will cut out and then put a fan filter on it. Can I get a sheet of the fan filter material?

Hm, dont really understand your question. 

There are no holes in the top cover? Just remove the cover and put fan filters on.

What do you recommend? I need a good looking cover that also has ventilation and fan filters.
