do I'd kinda like to keep that heat and moisture in the house . So I'm
looking for a way to filter the minor amounts of lint that get past the
in-dryer filter screen . I've used old pantyhose legs in the past with
limited success but I think there must be a better way . Anybody done
this and have a suggestion ?



A cyclone - like a workshop dust collector? or even a "drop box" with
baffles? then run the exhaust through a furnace filter to catch the
rest.
