Stay tuned for the next video!

Cool! That seems like a pretty powerful fan by the sound of it!

@FiveeWoodBuilds 2 дня назад

It’s a lot stronger than I thought! With another one of these on the window I should get great ventilation!

@twocents6363 3 дня назад

I like it.

@FiveeWoodBuilds 2 дня назад

Thanks!

@williamcooper5009 День назад

I was told this can cause stress on the fan possible resulting in a fire as the fan was not designed to have resistance from the filter. Not sure how accurate that is but I have steered cleared. It is a great and inexpensive idea.

@FiveeWoodBuilds День назад

Good to know, I might have to keep the fan at lower speeds and I’ll read up on that

@@FiveeWoodBuilds Yes, look into it. I would say if on low or medium AND not left on for long periods of time or unattended, you’re probably fine. It is amazing how effective your contraption actually is.

Nice build as it keeps it sturdy rather than how most box fans can tip over when we place them in janky positions in our shops. I see you have a Delta folding table. I love those and have five of them-every holiday they go on sale. Thanks for posting your builds.

@FiveeWoodBuilds 6 дней назад

And it’s light too since I only used 1/2 plywood! I’m probably going to add some finish and maybe edge banding to make it a bit more visually appealing!

@dustindye5305 7 дней назад

This is a really good idea. I just started to get into woodworking. I have an area that will occasionally have both my toddler sons learning alongside me. I need a little bit more air movement and with a filter on back 🤌🤌 interested to see what you got coming next. Keep up the hard work brother 👊🤙

@FiveeWoodBuilds 6 дней назад

Thanks! It’s a lot of fun once you start, I keep thinking of what I can make next. I have some bigger plans in the next month but the next video will be a small one day build!

brilliant low tech approach to clean air in your workspace. I remember my Dad’s shop with a big attic fan that drew in cool clean air from outside and dust outside. I have taken this concept one step further. I bought a Dewalt turbo fan and place it so that it blows my table saw dust away from me and outside the garage door. I will install a fan as depicted and now blow the dust toward the window fan. This guy is clever. PS: I have a very good Powermatic dust collection system; however the fine dust that makes it through the filter is killing me even with a Jet room filter running.

@FiveeWoodBuilds 3 дня назад

Oh nice! I wish I could do something like that but it’s tough because my room size is only 8x8 with one window! If I end up in a bigger shop I might give that a try too!

@contestwill1556 9 дней назад

ive read that some people stack a lower merv filter as a pre-filter that the air passes through before the higher merv so the thicker dust doesnt clog up the high merv one sooner. but admittedly I'm one of the "tape one filter to the fan" people because I'm lazy like that 😊

@FiveeWoodBuilds 9 дней назад

I was thinking of doing that too, I wasn’t sure if I would of needed a second fan in between the filters! And I did buy the duct tape but I had so much scrap plywood I figured why not!

@sparkyenergia 8 дней назад

@@FiveeWoodBuilds For the central heating return in our house I use a chux cloth as a pre filter. Super cheap and keeps out the big stuff like dog hair. Could give that a shot and see if it doesn't cause too much restriction.

@FiveeWoodBuilds 8 дней назад

Ok thanks, I left room in the back to add things so I might pop that on

@robertaclark1233 День назад

You could have gotten the same effect by using 4 lg paint sticks as a frame, a piece of left over chicken wire mesh stapled to paint sticks, covered with batting material from craft dept at Walmart. Tuen drill for holes and zip tie it to the back of the fan. Just saying, recycle.

@FiveeWoodBuilds День назад

I actually used plywood I had sitting around for almost a year! In a way it was recycling other than buying the fan and filter. I’ll consider that next time!

@wolflahti412 8 дней назад

I was trying to design some sort of framework to hold the dust filter on my box fan when I realized I could just set the filter against the intake side, and the suction would hold it in place. Zero hardware needed. The simplest solutions are the best.

@FiveeWoodBuilds 8 дней назад

It is, I was going to duct tape the filter to the fan but then said why not use this wood that’s been sitting for months!

@robertblahnik 8 дней назад

Way too much work for the end product. Just put a filter on the side of a box fan respecting the direction of airflow and the arrow on the filter itself. Then secure the filter with a small piece of blue tape so that it stays there. Personally, I removed the safety grids on my box fan allowing less resistance to air flow. You can really tell the difference with that trick. What's even better is if you have two windows and the weather is pleasant. You can put one box fan in one window blowing out, and the other box fan blowing in ward but through a filter... These clear dust out of the room faster than anything.

@FiveeWoodBuilds 8 дней назад

Yeah it was a lot of work for something that could just be taped to the back! I just enjoy the process of building something! I only have one window in the room but there’s a fan there blowing out the dust. With this I can move it around the building and decorate it a bit so it can blend in with my decor!
