Yep and if you want to get really fancy, ya can put the box on stilts and put a 5th filter on the bottom!

It is setup to pull in air through the filters into the box and push it up through the top.

Just doing my part ground control 🫡

I used the box from the box fan to create a bottom to make it a bit more sturdy for moving around and ensure more air flows through the filters instead of slipping in under the filters.

It also helped making the CR Box easier. I used it as a mount point for each filter.

I duct taped the filter to the bottom piece creating a sort of hinge that let the filter lay flat outward.

I then would prop up two filters creating a corner and tape them on the inside and outside.

Then I’d do the same with the two remaining filters. Then finally tape the final two corners.

The next step i do is optional, but it made taping the fan on top easier. I created a fan shield, which is like the bottom but a big hole in the middle. Tape that on top.

Finally, place the fan on top tape it and try to seal any gaps.

Oh, that’s an interesting idea, not too much different from a swamp cooler actually so ya I think it would work.

My question is, where would be the optimal spot for the ice/icepacks:

• Inside, at the bottom
• Inside, suspended in the middle
• Inside, at the top near the fan

Ohhhhh that’s a great idea! Thanks for the suggestion!

Will all of you get out of my house?!?!

Ya, they were brand new filters from the store. I bought them along with the box fan and duct tape.

This apartment doesnt have a HVAC system (just wall mounted AC unit) so it’s doing all the air filtration.

Funny enough I cleaned that rug after first moving in (apartment was pre-furnished) and it looked clean for a whole day.

Yes it can!

I was a little miffed when i went to buy the goods for this box because i couldn’t get MERV 14 filters and had to settle for MERV 13.

I plan to make a frame so i can just slide filters in each side with the fan mounted on top. I’ll have to figure out a means to create a nice seal between the frame and filters so the air passes through instead of around.

This was my first thought as well. OP sounds like myself before I was diagnosed with ADHD (type combined) and started learning how to address my symptoms.

As soon as I saw, “… Reading over and over…” In OPs post my mind jumped to ADHD. I, and so many others with ADHD, have to re-read a paragraph, heck sometimes a sentence before our brains wake up and realize that we should store this info in short term memory.

A therapist who specializes in ADHD in adults (it used to be believed that children diagnosed with ADHD would “grow” out of their ADHD as they got older. Thankfully this belief is rapidly changing as our understanding of ADHD gets better). They can help you start to re-work your life to be complimentary to your ADHD instead of feeling like you’re trying to cram a square peg in a round hole.

ADHD isnt the root cause for everything, but it definitely influences all aspects of your life in varying degrees.

“Killing in the Name” by Rage Against The Machine is unfortunately as relevant today as when it was written if not more so.

But wait there’s more! Like Hamlets which are smaller than a village.

And we haven’t even started getting into the different types of cities: Metropolitis, Twin, Satellite.

If it’s a quick dirty script like doing a one time update to multiple records then I’ll just write it under the if name == main.

Here’s a great response to any parent who gets the “You must be a shitty parent” line.

We even have a real life example of this with all of the January 6th convictions resulting in jail time whereas his Highness was protected by a fascist judge who stalled the court proceedings at every opportunity.

Judge Aileen Cannon needs to be removed from her position, never be allowed to hold any judicial or public office position, and charged with obstruction of justice.

Or under our drinking water!

The Motorola Atrix 4G had a Desktop Mode (Webtop was its name and it was Ubuntu based) in 2011 before Samsung. They even released a cradle dock, that you could connect to a tv or monitor, and a laptop dock for it and the source code on Sourceforge (my guess is to be GPL compliant).

I got that phone specifically for the desktop mode. It had a full blown Firefox browser installed and you could run your apps along side it.

I was blown away and thought, “This is the future for computers” but I was incredibly wrong. After the short honeymoon period i found it to be sluggish and clunky when using an android app. The hardware although phenomenal for a phone couldn’t provide an optimal experience for a desktop.
