It's small, but on the plus side, it's easy to remove to clean & re-oil. Again, not sure if I will stay w/ this approach long term, but I think it's an interesting experiment.
One issue I see with this is that if the foam gets old it could start breaking down and get sucked into the sc. You would have to monitor it to make sure it doesn't happen. It could be pretty restrictive also.
