The Fume Extractor Part 4/4
June 13th, 2011

Once all the parts were printed it was time to put it all together.

Mounted Blower Fan with duct hose running to the outside

I bought 50′ [15.25m] of 3″ white marine duct hose online for $40. This was a nice inexpensive way to get the fumes out to my basement window. The hoses are attached to the blower adapters with pipe clamps.

1" flexible hose leading tot he fume extrator nozzle

1″ blue “super” flexible duct hose was run to the extractor nozzle on the extruder. I even designed and printed 3 little parts to clamp the hose to the Z stage.

The above image is before I wired up the blower fan. This was quite simple because it is an AC motor and can be directly plugged into a standard electrical outlet.
