This project came from my love of taking apart broken electronics and experimenting with the components. I had an old computer fan, a 9-volt battery, pens, and the gift of boredom. Next thing I knew, I was creating interesting art! Turning electronic “junk” into unexpected fun is really satisfying.

Step #1: Mount the fan and switch
- Attach the fan to the box top with double-stick foam tape.
- To mount the switch, make a small hole in the box.
- Remove the mounting nut from the switch, push the switch lever through the hole from the inside of the box, and replace the mounting nut to secure it in place.
