Indoor DIY active carbon filter???

[Alex Delarge]

I saw a post the other day, that had a link to a DIY active carbon filter, made with a 5 gallon bucket, active carbon, and a pipe going through the lid. Has anyone seen it? Should have bookmarked it.

Does anyone know of a great tek, on building an active carbon filter?

First one was similar to what I saw. He used 5 gallon bucket, with lid, and pipe, about 6 inches going through it, with many holes, and filter foam wrapped around it, packed with active carbon. Forget the exterior details. How many holes, was filter foam wrapped around it.

Do you have a link to it??? Have the general idea, but want to know about ratio of outer holes to inner holes, and size differences. I think the inner one had tons of large holes, and the outer had smaller and less.
