As long as it blows OUT and not IN with a load of crap and the air coming in from behind is filtered through the eyepiece holder, and to this end I have made them in the past from this GREAT stuff

That slip on and ducct tape, between the circular cutouts, don't laugh, think about it, three layers of fine "Tights", "Stockings" yes......, thin, and the finest make superb fine filters
