Remove insulation from both wires. Place the motor inside its designated space, where it should stick once in place. Twist or solder a small piece of wire to one metal prong on the latching button, and do the same with another piece of wire on the other prong. Attach your black wire to the left tiny prong of the motor using hot glue, and attach your red wire to the right little prong in the same way. Super Glue a fan blade onto the turning prong at the front and middle part of the motor. Secure all parts together as shown in pictures or videos by super gluing or plastic welding them. You're done! Plug in the USB charger and turn on the fan! Note: The fan rattles a lot, so keep it on a mouse pad. Unfortunately, I was unable to upload my video to YouTube due to slow internet speeds. However, the fan works very well. Please share your creations with me by uploading them online.
