| So here is what you should have
going into the rest of the steps for this project.
The tunnel created by the cd case should be ridged
and the wires should be tight. The unit as a whole
should feel solid. |
|
|
| Using the hot glue gun coat any
externally exposed wires with a 1/8th inch layer
of glue. Depending on the type of glue and the temperature
of your glue gun it may be necessary to use a few
layers to build up the necessary thickness. One
way to speed up the process is to use a computer
air duster upside down and spray the cold mist on
the glue. Just don’t hurt your self doing
this.One other note is that the mist it sprays out
is flammable! Don’t spray an operational ion
cooler or an open flame! Trust Me! But I am looking
into an electrostatic jet engine project now! |

|
| Now we have things nicely insulated
we will attach the emitter and collector wires from
the power supply. This is a simple process and a
drop of solder for the connections never hurts.
Use ample hot glue to insulate the connections and
any other externally exposed wires. |
| |
| With the leads attached we will
splice in the wires for the lights in the fan and
the transformer to the wire lead we had left over
from the fan. This is really simple, positive goes
to positive and negative goes to negative. A little
electrical tape and then I used some hot glue to
attach it to the fan mounting bracket to keep it
all nice and neat. at this point it would be smart
to test the unit and make sure it works prior to
installing it in the computer. we wouldent want
to blow up the computer if we did somthing wrong... |
|
| So here is where we leave the
norms of fan placement. We will be mounting the
fan externally. So we will be using the screws internally
to the case. This is simple but if you have a large
CPU cooler it will likely obstruct access to the
screws and you may have to uninstall it or use a
stubby screw driver.. |
