found another 3D printable design with space for a foam filter...
Is there a site that can 3D print designs for you if you dont have a 3D printer?

I used this 3D printing service for my similar filter housing. Just use Google to search for more.
Hi, i find mine moves about on top of the case - Could you tell me what you used to keep it steady? you mention silicon sealing - what size did you get?
After a few months, I noticed a fine layer of dust on the Spigen and nothing on the M2 Studio. It works, but due to the lower airflow of the M2 Mac, there's much less dust than the M1.
From post #349:
"I've confirmed my measurement, a 3mm thick x 12mm wide Neoprene Rubber Strip fits perfectly and creates a good seal and friction so the Mac Studio grips the case."
Did you have this printed yet? If so what foam did you use inside?found another 3D printable design with space for a foam filter...

Received, and attached, the Spigen yesterday around 5PM EST.
Here's an iStat 24h graph of temps:
Still about 34C average.

The CPU temp is within the feedback loop of the cooling system - the fan speed and duty cycle will work to keep it the same.
A more interesting measurement would be how the Spigen affected the fan speed or duty cycle.
Keep en eye on the filter every couple of weeks. Although the Spigen does a really good job of preventing dust, some dust still collects and has to be removed. I've had mine since March and periodically check for debris.
Attached are multiple 7-day graphs. I added the Spigen to my Studio @roughly 5PM last Saturday.
I have had a Spigen for a few months now and don't notice any change in temperature or fan speed.
Thank You Splifingate for posting this. Impressive use of iStat capability.
These data clearly show that the Spigen does not appreciably affect the Studio cooling system. So if it captures a significant amount of dust, it is indeed a positive addition to your Studio setup.
Thanks again!

Glad to provide insight.
Normally, I maintain the thermostat at 19C during the day when I'm out-and-about.
I held a three-day weekend, this last, and let the t-stat off the leash . . . on Sunday, I basked in 24C comfort
Consequently, I believe I noticed a slight up-turn in temps.I'm particularly enamored with the MS right now, but I'll prepare some (relatively) comparative stats from my MP 5,1 somewhere over the next few weeks.
I have two quats, work outside in my livelihood, and currently have the comps in the same room as the Wash/Dryer . . . the regular amount of fur, lint and dust available in the splifingate household is immeasurable

Yes it can. I picked mine up from the printer today, aluminum/silver color. It fits my Studio perfectly. The files are available here:

Of the two pleated automotive-type cabin filters I bought (for the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 and sold on Amazon) which fit the above filter housing the Bi-Trust brand is a much better quality (fit & construction) than the PUR brand. It is also USD$2.00 cheaper.

It is an excellent product. I bought it and after having it printed went back to the site to leave a review but because I bought as a Guest rather than a Registered User, I could not connect my purchase to leave the review. I recommend it to anyone who wants a high-quality product.

I could, but there is no point in cluttering up the thread with duplicate pictures. It looks like the pics that Gjuroo posted at the top of Page 3. The only differences would be the surface textures, due to different printer models or printer settings.
Yes. I asked the printer first for his recommendation and he definitely favored PLA. This item is the first thing I've ever had printed 3D and am hugely impressed with it.
