Meet "Finger Cutter"

I found an old 486 server on the street with the most enourmous PSU fans ever. So I decided to cool my computer with one of them. Well I didn't have a dremel, or a single peice of hardware to mod the case bevel. So I spent a morning with my lighter and knife and melted a gapping hole in the case. And mounted this mofo of fan on it. I went from a warm 60c CPU to a cool 30c with just that one fan. Sadly though I was trying to attatch a ghetto grill and it got hooked in the fan that was revolving at a deadly speed. The fan ripped straight up to may face and just scathed my eyes. Heh.

I call it the "Finger Cutter."

No more 404's for me.

Should have tried with a stove element instead of a lighter.

Ghetto, but efficient setup you have here... Must be noisy as hell though, isn't it?

you may think not having grills is "funny" or "not a problem," but get your finger in it once and youll throw a fan grill on even the tamest fans after that

damn you panaflo, for trying to break my finger

Try putting 96vcd through one of those things! (they can take about 45v before smoke)

Heh, I still remember my first Tt DragonOrb. A friend of mine thought he could stop the fan with his finger. Took me forever to get the bloodstains off the PCB.

Oh yea got the love the old thermaltake orb. Mine exploded and took out a cap on my motherboard. Sadly this was way back in the days of my Athlon 1.4. But Dangures.

Dude you need to get a monster delta fan on that case. NOW THAT"S A FINGER KILLER!

Blades spin at 6000rpm!

Here's one of my projects. The two AC blowers will do more than damage your fingers. It should work as a blender for anything up to small farm animals!

I especially like the serrated trailing edge of the blades... You aren't planning on putting grilles on them are you?
