Kinda putting a lip around the edge to hold it on, but what would you suggest to keep the fliter from falling inside?

a lip on the inside as well .. the filer should have a lip around it .. make the hole the filter go's into the size of the filer w/o the lip .. so only the filter part will fit threw .. then make a removable lip eazy
