Description
Summary
Breathing solder fumes can cause serious health problems, a solder fume extractor is a cheap and easy way to minimize the inhalation of such fumes, for this reason and according to my needs I designed and built this minimalist mostly 3D printed fume extractor.
My goal was to make something functional, aesthetically appealing, inexpensive, compact and simple.
An important feature of this project is the removable filter cartridge that makes changing the activated carbon filter effortless and allows you to use the filters of the Hakko 491, 493, FA-400 fume extractors which are easy to find.
In order to minimize post processing I made a two part design for the enclosure and cartridge this way you won't need to print supports and post-processing is going to be minimum.
