vacuum motor idea

watching myth busters rerun this weekend made me have an idea. if noise is not an issue, why not use a vacuum motor. killer air flow.


comments, I am not seriously going to try it but it is an idea.

Wink Max air flow w 2 fans

Hell son, I use a gas leaf blower & Jim has a diesel snow blower on his rig.

EDIT:

Just use a 2 of these, 1 in & 1 out, with fan guards, intake air filter, and fan controllers.

You can mount your whole rig inside of a 10 gallon Shop-Vac... That'd be another way to go. If you could figure out how to get it to keep sucking dirt, you'd be sure to win "Monster Garage Rig-of-the-Month"

with that much air flowing, you could afford to use a screen of somesort if you go with the shop vac.

I would ber thinking that the motor would put out a bit og heat as well. so ducting the intake of the motor to the AC or nice outside temps would work best. it would work on the same concept of 2 box fans on wither side of you computer in a push pull config.
