DIY || Portable Ventilation Fan From Its Box

Hello! This project is originally my dad's idea. I really like how clever he is in turning its package to portable case. I want to share this with everyone. So I reassemble it again to show how he made it.

I suggest you watch the video to understand more about how it was made.

Don't forget to check my dad's other ideas in this instructables!!!
