90mm fans ...

[Things]

Hey guys, I found a computer on the side of the road, and being the geek I am, stopped and picked it up. It has a nice 90mm fan in that that moves A LOT of air, and I wanna use it on my scanner. But it seems 90mm is a strange size for a fan, so I can't find any 90mm filters for it, or even a finger guard. Since the fan si going to be ontop of the case, forcing air in, I need to have something there to stop fingers, and dust too.

Anyone got any 90mm filters, or know where I can get one?

Cheers,
Dan

RS components and Farnell have them,

but if you're in a hurry maybe use a 120mm wire finger guard over the 90mm fan.
yeah, means drilling 8 holes instead of 4

I think Dick Smith sell 92mm fans that come with fingerguards, but I think most stores are no longer stocking any parts, only consumer goods.

90mm's are fairly common...

As are 40,50,60,70,80,90,120mm
I even pulled a wee 17mm fan from a dead CD-ROM drive...
