I've been using the m40x for less than a week. It's great. I'm interested in what others have found is the best way to get the most out of the small m401 carts?
Do the "XL" carts make a good difference? Is the outer housing larger, or just the inner cart?
What about filler materials and techniques? Today, I trimmed a couple of the polyfill fillers for the first time, a simple "mod" i suppose, just cut the length down a little bit.
Filler material options seem to be
- polyfill (stock material)
- fluval (not really sure its that not the same as the polyfill)
- blue foam
Technique options seem to be
- just trim it down (length? width? trim which way?)
- make a 'dart' out of it with a stirrer straw (ala BFD mod)
- after trimming it down length wise, place a small spacer at the bottom of the cart to reset the filler on (to keep the filler top near the top of the cart)
Wondering what other m401 users have found that work well for this device, and would appreciate any advice.
Thnx
