Decided I want to start cutting open my oil filters to examine the trappings. The commercial ones didn't cover the range I needed: from Infiniti FX45 (tiny) to Ford F-250 (giant) so i designed and built my own. A little quality time in my home shop produced this result. There are many good designs out there, what makes mine useful is that it accommodates a wide range of filter diameters. See attached/below.

My smallest filter (for Infiniti FX45)
My largest filter (for 2001 Ford F-250 7.3l Diesel)
It works!
Works well! now I just have to wait for the next oil change.....
