Review of the Boneco H680 model

Do-it-yourself air washing workshop

If the purchase of an air purifier is too expensive for you, but at the same time it is difficult to do without the device, you can make a portable version that performs a similar function.

Illustration	Description of action
	To begin with, we will prepare the necessary material: an aluminum tube with a diameter of 14 mm, a little less than a plastic container in which placed, the container itself, disks, silicone or rubber gaskets, brackets for fastening pipes, Moment glue, computer cooler, engine from player.
	We put the discs and spacers on the aluminum tube one by one.
	We place one disk on the bottom of the plastic container and lower the tube into it, make marks for fixing the fasteners.
	Using the "Moment" glue, we attach the staples to the container from the inside, after which we place our structure in them (we check the ability to hold).
	We attach a rubber gasket to the motor axis, check the performance of the part and bite off unnecessary elements so that they do not interfere.
	We try on the cooler to the container lid and make marks on it for future fasteners, after which we drill them out.
	We fasten the cooler with bolts, after gluing the nut to the inside of the cooler.
	We make markings on the container lid and the wall, cut out holes with a diameter of up to 1-2 cm.
	We glue the batteries, attach the engine to the extended wall of the cooler, and then connect the contacts of the motor and the cooler with the installed sockets.
	Pour water into the container and place the motor between the wall and the drum with the discs so that the motor can turn the structure.
	We carry out make-up with electricity and enjoy the work of a mini-air washer.

GOOD TO KNOW!

A homemade unit is low-powered, so it will not cope with processing in large rooms. Ideal for utility rooms, toilets and bathrooms. By adding aromatic oils there, the device will also play the role of a portable air freshener.
