This fan is designed to be 3D printed and used as an exhaust fan with a filter using activated carbon pellets.
 
==== Steps ====
1. Take a standard 120mm PC case fan and remove the motorpower cable from the frame of the fan. Cut the motor out of the frame with snips or a saw. Next, remove the fan blades from the fan hub. You may have to sand down the hub of the fan to remove the stubs of the fan blade.

3. Glue the screw thread to the case_topcase top model so that it aligns with the hole and leave it to dry.
 
4. Glue the motor from the PC in the center of the fan bottom. The stubs around the center should help to line it up. The cable should exit the fan case from the bottom.
 
5. Glue or press fit the fan blades onto the hub.
 
5. Place the case top on to the assembled fan and seal tape around the edges.
 
6. To fill the filter chamber with carbon pellets place the filler tool in the cavity of the filter chamber. The filler tool is just there to stop the pellets from getting into the central cavity.
