    Is good to think a bit about the flow of air. Mine has more air being pushed in than pushed out so that the air doesn’t enter from places where there aren’t dirt filters. (In case it’s not clear, what is not pushed out through fans just leaves naturally)

      Positive air pressure is always good, and, to prolong the time between cleanings, it’s also good to elevate the rig off the floor, even if it’s not carpeted - the dust accumulates more on lower surfaces, and all of that gets kicked around and sucked into the machine if it’s down there.

      and the digital gods weep for you if you put the machine on carpet
