Ever get fed up trying to clean the damn wet/dry shop vac air filter? I just found out that K&N makes a filter. But a bit pricey.... Any other Ideas?

I've been using the same filter since I bought the variable speed craftsman around 1992. Bought a second filter and swap them while the other dries after cleaning. They've lasted much longer than I would have thought given the crud I've vacuumed over the years.
 
I don't know what the big deal is, they make a paper filter that goes over that foam filter virtually eliminating the need to clean it - even after sucking up a houseful of drywall dust !!
