DiY Carbon Filter?
I was about to pay £70 for a carbon filter and decided to see if it could be 'rednecked' and came across this article. It seems like a pretty straight forward task.
What are thoughts on this? Will it even be worth doing for the smell (the plant is now at the front of the house, so I need to do something)

A reputable carbon filter in the right situation (paired with proper sized fan with negative pressure in your room/tent) works flawlessly.
I have used mountain air and a vortex carbon filter. Both worked perfect. No smell

Every carbon filter i have purchased worked well. I go way past the use by dates by washing with a hose outside and giving a week in the hot sun with daily rotation to fully dry. I have never seen a noticeable difference between a $60 and a $160. They both clear the area of smell. The larger the filter the better it is at removing odors. As long as it has the appropriate sized blower. I use a 4 foot tall with a 14" blower in my cigarette smoking room and nobody ever smells anything. I go with a mid range canister that has been in business for a long time so I can count on them to honor the warranty that I have never had to use.

I justlaughed atread the article... they totally omit the part of the packing of the carbon being key to this... if it's not tightly packed, it won't work... don't have a vibrating table? Probably best to pay the £70!

id go for the higher priced filters, MountainAir if you can afford it,
my last mountainair lasted me over 3 years use
you only get what you pay for, if you buy cheap you'll probably buy twice.....
