Are you using micropore tape to hold down the tyvek mushboy?
It looks like a small piece of tyvek over the hole then double taped with micropore holding the tyvek in place while adding another two layers of filtration?

Okay just made 8 more hopefully these are better I’ll just try them and see I guess. It seemed semi secure the silicone just peeled off very easily anyway hopefully these come out better

I like to think it helps to put enough to smooth it over the edge so its being held down

yah. easier than stuffing polyfil. less of a chance to fuck up. unliked the standard modded lid. a lid shouldnt need a tek. its a fucking lid.
the more pipes in the plumping the easier to back up the drain.
imo of course

They work well, but they arent waterproof like sfds are. Those need foil

Cool most tyvek lids I’ve seen are wrapped under the lid or similar. I’ve never seen it like you have it. I’ll give that a try also on the way to find what works best in my situation.

Yeah I’ve always put foil but only used SFDs once so far.

With a well made sfd lid you wont need foil. Tyvek a la mushboy is awesome in a pinch but they're a waste of foil imo

1. recycle foil. 2. i rarely use foil.
tyvek is water proof. MP tape dries quickly and sticks even better with a bit of moisture.
take foil off fresh outa the pc. its wet underneath anyway so fukkit.

mushboy said: best way to avoid problems with lids is to not mod the lid but if you do, use a basic filter nah what im sayin?
Do you use unmodded lids mushboy? I was wondering if they would do well for stones. Have you seen anyone use them for long term stone jars?
