Solder Fan

Solder Fan

A compact, efficient and cheap fume extraction solution for electronics workbenches, featuring USB-C power delivery and a repurposed fan.

My goal was to make the cheapest, easiest way to repurpose an old fan that runs on 12V. That's why I created a custom PCB and custom parametric case that go together. Now you can easily use a fan that has a width from 7cm till infinity (not recommended). This is thanks to MakerWorld's parametric in-browser editor, so anyone can edit the width and thickness!
