If the impeller does not bend, the air flow will not be created during the rotation of the disc. Here you need to feel the measure, so as not to overdo it too.


When the blades are ready, go to the creation of the main mechanism. Inside the disc, we recommend inserting a plastic stopper in which it is necessary to make a hole under the motor shaft. Carefully fix the core and proceed to create a USB fan support for the laptop. Motorcycle
