The problem is that mesh won't actually allow as much air to pass through it as you would think. As an experiment, cut a sample of mesh, turn on your airline & feel the air pressure blowing on your hand, then blow air through the mesh & feel how much air passes through it with your hand on the backside of the mesh. You'll find that it's minimal. I'd hate to see you get any problems because of that & to cause any damage to the motor. If you were'nt gonna use mesh, then no problems.
I wasn't 100% sold on the screen anyway; now I doubt I'll use one.

Thanks for the info!

Jody
