Ok, i was wondering.. what can i pick up at a local store to use for good fan filters. I want to restrict airflow as little as possible.. and i need some material that is rather thin. I saw this one case where this guy had stuff that looked like it was paper thin, but you could kind of see through it and ya could see all the fibers, but it let air flow well and caught dust. Well.. let me know your ideas.. thanks!

I use the filters they sell for range hoods (like over your stove). I spray with PAM and let dry (this catches a lot more dust) then every couple of weeks I wash them in the sink and re-spray. Works great!
