I've been using a similar fume extractor for a couple of years now. I got to admit though, that it is one of the few things in my shop, that I actually didn't make myself :D. I was lazy back then and bought it for around 30€. But your fume extractor is much more beautiful and also way quieter! I think it's really cool, that you have decided to go into electronics as well :). I love your channel. Please keep on doing whatever you like!
+The Post Apocalyptic Inventor Thanks, I am a big fan of your channel too!
+The Post Apocalyptic Inventor I just read this in your voice..... I think I need a break.
Like the project Linn.
+Brian Lasch Thanks Brian!
what soldering iron u use ?
"Its a little big"😏
Thanks Darbin, then there is nothing with acrylic resin or epoxy ...
The walnut knob against the white is just the right touch… Classic and clean 'Darbin Orvar' design! Very cool Linn:)
Joe
+homesteadonomics Thanks Joe, I thought the walnut was a good woodworking touch :)
This is only the second video I've watched of yours and I'm very impressed. When I build mine I will probably follow your plan with one exception: I will scale the box to a standard filter or a ratio of the filter size (.25, .5, etc. 'cause I'm laz-, er, time efficient) so that I don't have to cut it. I'll also have it accessible from the outside without having to remove so much to get at it. Maybe a simple frame in front, with a single screw to replace it. But, I have to admit, this filter is not just functional, it is a very beautiful piece of work.
Great idea!! Can prob use this idea for welding too, in a bigger capacity. Loving all your stuff lately. You've really branded yourself nicely. Keep it up.
+Matt Diresta Thanks so much Matt, I really appreciate that!
@@darbinorvar To which terminal do you connect the green wire on the booster and the blue potentiometer. Also, to which terminal(pin) does the 3k ohm resister is jumped to, from the negative wire, to the blue potentiometer, is it to(negative pin)?
I recognize some of those Radio Shack parts and tools. RIP, Radio Shack.
won't changing the filter be trick? there isn't much space, and you've glued in the support!
"tricky", I mean.
That was very cool. I wonder if you could modify where the filter goes by making slots and a kind of frame around the the filter, then have a slot at the bottom that you could then insert the filter and make for easier filter replacement rather than having to take it apart to change out the filter. I think this project and your Bluetooth speaker will have to be put on my projects list. Thanks so much for these videos.
Are there any circuit diagrams for this build?? Would love to have a go but i'm having trouble working out the Voltage adjustment :)
Hi Linn, Thanks for making such a great DIY video. I've got my box setup and sourced all my components but I'm hesitant to finish it off as I can't quite make out which wire is going where. Do you have a clear wiring schematic available for this project? Thanks again. Stay creative! :D
..nicely done, and a great project for the shop. Exhausting fumes from soldering is important for safety.........love your work.
+Rick L Thanks Rick!
I really like your videos, my question about this one, why not just get some old second speakers to adapt?
Wow, your projects are so aesthetically pleasing in addition to being well designed. Nicely done! I just watched about 15 fan videos and yours has got to be the nicest looking one.
Really nice. :) I made one in a plastic box. LOL
Awesome project Linn. Cool to see you add these type of projects to your channel. Keep it up. Douglas
+RetroWeld Thanks Douglas!
+King JD Thanks! Yes, they are affiliate links, and I appreciate the support!
Hi Lynn, apart from being drop dead gorgeous, you know your way around a lot of different tools, wow, I’m blown away, some people would be in envy of you. Great video’s by the way, only one more thing to say:
WILL YOU MARRY ME ???
🤙🏼🇦🇺🤙🏼🇦🇺🤙🏼🇦🇺❤️🤙🏼
I really like that little hot glue clamping trick! I will definitely try that next time!
I like it. Perfect for a solid-state workstation or even where you paint and stain.
+Zerkbern Thanks, that would be a great use too!
I had an idea of making a Desktop Gaming PC with Hepa or Carbon filters so it can also double as an air purifier.
Probably adding 2x 200mm fans in front.
Now that would be wild XD
Hi Lynn. I stumble capon your channel today and I found it both interesting and entertaining. It is refreshing to see people shearing their skills with others. I am a Carpenter& joiner by trade. I'm retired now with time on my hands!. I am very interested in your work and would.like to incur-age you to keep learning and shearing your knowledge and experience with us all. I have a couple of questions if you din't mind me asking you.What C&C machine are you using and what software program are you running with it. What are you taught's on the machine and software. What are it's limitations if any you found with it!
I thank you inadvertence and Keep op the good work.
With kindest regards.
Mike from Ireland
@Darbin Orvar To which terminal do you connect the green wire on the booster and the blue potentiometer. Also, to which terminal(pin) does the 3k ohm resister is jumped to, from the negative wire, to the blue potentiometer, is it to(negative pin)?
cool project. not really sure how I stumbled on you but am subscribing. Just up the road an hour and a half from you. Little surprised, thought I was viewing main land Sweden. Nice to watch a fellow Oregonian
Can you please provide a diagram for your wiring? I'm trying to replicate it based on your explanation alone and pausing the video but the jumbled wires in the paused frame make it difficult to do so.. Otherwise thanks for this idea! It looks great and polished which has inspired me to attempt to do the same
why are u using the 10k resistor? and and the 3k resistor? can u explain why?
I discovered today your channel and now I can't stop watching them! Clever ideas an very nice done videos! Congratulations! Now you and DIY Perks are my two favourite channels for DIY projects :)
Конечно все отлично, вся работа великолепна. Но само устройство бесполезно, т.к. производительность очень низкая и фильтрующий материал никакой.
Do you know any great air filters I could use for my computer from old clothing? Please describe the type.
Really nice, I wonder if computer fans are strong enough if you add a HEPA filter.
Excellent, subscribed yesterday and already watched most of your videos.
How are those 2 potentiometers wired exactly? Is it one potentiometer wired 'inside' the other? Because it looks like there are three wires (2 green and one resistor leg) connected to one terminal of the blue potentiometer
@2:37 I was like "aaah, no, not cutting into the bench!" haha. Besides that, really smooth design, you could name it the iExtractor
Make sure to remove the input port ;)
Exactly what I thought haha My heart stopped :D
can I make charkol filter .at home because in our country never exist this type of filter.. I try to make this for a long time but I failed
thanks for the idea i followed youre design and used an old speaker that wasnt working any more and made it out of that and then i made a base to go on it so i can aim the extractor to my work this was made with a simple piece of metal bent in a u shape and used som screws with butterfly nuts to tight it in the angle i wanted
if i was better with cameras i would post a video
Hmm, Du Linn du måste nästan vara från Sverige, fint projekt i alla fall. satsar till 100 att du är från Sverige
Greetings from Russia .Gadget ,I'm subscribed.
Not enough to filter all the fumes. It will just come out still with toxins. The box looks nice tho :)
Nice video! Do you think a car air filter would work? Or do it need to be an active carbon filter?
Nice job a good idea, I like that it can be a desk fan as well.
+Mike Fulton Thanks Mike!
Nice and clean Linn, really like it!
something made by woman looks better than our guys do.....
Can give me a list of this?i need to build this for my school project
One question, and one request:
1) Can you suggest a method for cleanly cutting MDF (I keep ending up with ratty edges)?
2) I'd love to see a video covering one (or three) methods for cheaply, easily (for those that don't have access to a lot of tools), build boxes for project enclosures, maybe if you ever have a slow week?
Thanks!
If you really want you can make it out of cardboard, wouldnt less aslong as this one but it'll do the trick for the price :)
Очень круто! Даже не верится что это сделала хрупкая девушка!
Darbin Orvar...very very impressive work...Keep it up!!
Snyggt! Har tänkt i liknande banor gällande cigarrök. Tror du det fungerar att ta bort rök med?
gril with cnc machine.. subscribed!
You should put a small put a small speaker in there so you can listen to music while you work, if you decide to make it portable :D
+Jordan O'C (Xenro66) And a time machine!!
Make brought me here. Great to see a female out there getting her hands dirty!
Wonderfull Woman Working, than man ^^
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
+The College Woodworker Thanks!
Your work is awesome with all your handy machines you use.
Linn, i suggest using a water born lacquer with sealer for painting MDF. I recently built my own kitchen and used this for my doors. I used a cheap Rockler HVLP sprayer and did 3 light coats with sanding in between, and you get a professional looking finish. The first coat of lacquer also seals the edges of the MDF. Just a suggesting for future projects with MDF. Thanks for the great video!.
+lsdave Thanks! I have been wanting to try just such a finish!
why didn't you use the X-Carve to carve the holes?
Great fume extractor. I need to build one as I do way too much soldering to not do something about the fumes. Much more stylish than what I was planning. I'm not a fan of MDF but I might do something similar in some pine or oak scraps with some wipe-on poly.
I'm curious about your shirt, Linn. Is that the shortest chess game in history or something? Someone seems to have made checkmate in very few moves.
Edit -- I just ran it through Chess Titans.. that *was* one fast game.
+Dosbomber Thanks! I figure if you make something, you might as well make it nice :)
Like your idea. An old speaker could be used to avoid the woodwork - change the speaker grille for the charcoal filter.
An old 19.5V laptop power supply could be used to run the 24V fan. Thanks for the video.
+Steven Heaton That is a good idea, you can use a laptop power supply. Thanks!
I really enjoyed your video very much, and although your skill in making something that looks so nice. I am useless at making things but I'm very interested infiltration , I worry that you don't have effective filtration for particle or chemical.
+James Swale Thanks James!
That's a cool vacuum thing on your X-carve
Awesome project. I would like to do a steampunk version with brass and maybe a crystal doorknob for the turning mechanism.
+Edward Iglesias Sounds pretty cool :)
Boy that works well, I think just about any of us could use one of these! Thanks for the video! Great work again Linn!!! :)
Nice. What was the reason to desolder the potentiometer and the installing the 3000 resistors?
Thanks for the video.
+amtpdb1 The booster I was using if set to deliver up over 30 volts, which is too high, so I added the resistors to manage the voltage to a more useful 15-24 volts.
is this good for neutralising cigarette smell?
wao there is no words
It looks like you did a serious spindle upgrade on your CNC as well as adding dust collection. Do you cover the upgrades anywhere?
+Harry Ragland So far, besides showing it on instagram I have not cover it on video. I sometimes go over that kind of stuff on my DarbinNotes channel.
Hello Darbin, you can tell me what kind of hollow cap, or sealant, in this video you use pink, then paint ..... thanks
It is drywall spackle. Most hardware stores have it.
Would this be doable using, say, three 9V batteries instead of a wired power supply? And if so, how long do you think the batteries would be good for?
+Dave Starr if you used 3x9v with voltage regulator it would run for about 3-4h at best
Great Job! Nice choice of music... I am pretty fond of it myself.
+Summers Woodworking Thanks Brian!
You are smart and beautiful .. good job .
What kind of CNC Machine do you use?
I made an air purifier a few weeks ago and it works great, but I must admit Linn your version looks a lot less industrial than my version I may have to retro- fit a similar surround ...
+ryzo mcgregor Industrial can look pretty cool though :) Function > Form
the pdf and svg links are no longer valid :(
great build!
ive been working on a sawdust vacuum using 1 or 2 fans, and a 12v adapter. any ideas?
S
Why didn’t you use a hepa filter?
Are there any schematics for the electronics
Elegant & important: fumes irritate my eyes, throat & skin, far better when they are removed.
+Springwood Cottage Thanks, I completely agree!
Nice finish! at first I was concerned by the pressure drop through the filter but 2 24V, that's power! Once I made a similar arrangement with 2 scrap fans in parallel and since they were not exactly equal, one was dragging the other and it was not so efficient. Yours looks good!
+Cactus! workshop Thanks, the two fans do put out a lot of volume!
Hi. Great video. Is there a wire diagram?
But does it actually filter the harmful substances from the air going through it?
nops not with that filter
If you're Linn, was it it called the Darbin Orva show????
+David Handley darbinorvar.com/about
I made a purifier/cooler system
Cool nicely done, opinion wat about using usb as power since there's a lot of them every where now a days & u can use it in ur car as well
+lolo ent You could, but in my setup you need at least 12 volts and usb can only deliver 5v.
It looks nice. Love the contrast of the knob!
+Bruce A. Ulrich Thanks Bruce, it needed a little classic :)
I'm a sucker for walnut.
How easy would it be to modify this into a functional compact desktop heater?
+Cameron “Gibbster” Gibbon A heater is a very different thing than an air purifier, so it would take a lot of modification.
Why not use the x carve to cut all the holes?
Must have address an car hepa filter
Hello Darbin, Congratulations ........... Do you have a clear wiring schematic available for this Desktop Air Purifier project ?
Thank you!
What about filter change?
Excellent as usual, Lynn. I just gave my son a box full of PC fans, various fixed and adjusta le pots an a bunch of switches. Maybe he'll make me a fume extractor. ☺
Lucky son😆 Can I have one too?
Sorry, Ted. He got'em all. I'm out of the PC rebuilding/scavenging business now.
Fixed potentiometer = resistor ;)
Great idea, the hot glue/yellow glue is a nice trick, thx for sharing!
+Connie van der Walt Thanks for watching!
Is there anything you cannot do ?
Love your work !
+Arduino Basics Thanks, love your channel too!
Wisper fan brand are the best for less noise.
This is awesome. Nice work!
If I can just raise my 2c worth. look into PWM controllers. Using a PWM controller, you can control the speed, without loosing torque on your motors. They will have the same turning power, but just turn slower. for the fans, your solution is perfect. If your motors are doing any work, pwm might be better. Something like a magnetic stirrer used in labs. the motors needs to carry some neoridium magnets. in that case pwm is a much better solution.
by lowering the voltage, the motors might work a little harder, which might reduce the life span.
help me, how can i do like you please
excellent video - great idea for a woodworking electronicy crossover!
+Adam Smith Thanks so much Adam!
did u make CNC yourself?
Can you plz mail the templates
Looks good but that's a lot of work.
nice tutorial but who adds good quality walnut to cheap mdmf if I was using walnut I would have gone the extra mile to use proper oakwood or some nice wood for the main frame other than that it's a pretty cool tutorial but for the knob I would have made a concrete knob as it has a nice cold touch and weight to it
