Fans



Tested a computer case fan the other day. It is a farely powerful one for a computer fan. 120mm dia, 41dba and 100CFM. It snapped during testing phase.

Unfortunately it was strong enough. I will be getting more fans from sam tomorrow for more testing. We are looking into one for per base at a reasonable cost. This will make air pressure even in all arches and also no ducting needed from foot to foot.

phil. thats brilliant! that is an awesome solution, and im pretty sure there would be an easy way to control them through max (if we needed to)!
we should think about setting up the computer controlling this centrally in the space and have it display some sort of information about the project, so its slightly transparent. what do you guys think? will reduce cabling problems anyways...

Great work Phil!!!
This is going to be so much quieter and slicker than any other solution so far.
Can you show a movie of it online once its connected to the base and inflating the piece?
