Are you going to build a fume extractor? Let me know in the comments!

[@TheEdgeofTech]

Nice work! Great idea!

[@klave8511]

Great video, well presented and a very useful tool to have.

[@onlynation1509]

Nice Video

[@ElectronicSupersonic]

Works very well! One note, generally for switching regulators you want to tune their voltage under load as they are not good at regulating during no or low load conditions so they might not give you the same voltage when loaded.

[@creamysbrianna]

I'm curious as to why you chose to use a metal tool to adjust the voltage on the boost module?

[@bitsurfer0101]

How do you adjust the horizontal setting in the slicer? Could you make a video on that?

[@joshrgaming2606]

What happens if I don't use the usb voltage regulator, and just solder the fan wires to a usb cable? Thanks for a great video.

Hi, just on a quick note, how’s this idea costing under $12, not all people own a 3D printer, or have one readily available, there’s a big cost to getting parts 3D printed, and you haven’t included the total of price in the description, let alone the parts required, I just don’t see how it’s under $12 to make.. 🤔🤔🤔

[@TBD3.0]

They're really not that expensive, anywhere from 30 to 50 dollars, it won't break the bank.
