The concept is kinda like the Blitz stainlesssteel open pod!! Only thing is that the Blitz one is tampered towards to front.

Heard that the Blitz one really works!!

I can't see too closely but how would the ait get through the metal? I would think if there are small holes they would still be too large and would let in debris. Just my thoughts.
