Printable Fan Blades for 130mm Soldering Fume Extractor with filter

thingiverse

I needed a fume extractor for soldering and found extremely affordable 130mm carbon filters, but I didn't have any spare computer fans lying around. I created my own custom fan design and a matching fan housing that fit perfectly with a motor I already had on hand. I then attached the custom fan assembly to a design I found on Thingiverse by "nrp" for the carbon filters: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:17086 These 3D prints, combined with some wiring and soldering, gave me a fume extractor with a simple toggle switch! I included the .stl files for the fan and the housing along with the Solidworks file that includes both parts. Some extra M3 screws were required to mount the motor to the housing as well as attach the fan housing to the fume extractor by "nrp".
