Got filter off eBay (Camfil Megalam)I have to measure  I've forgot. Filter was $60 total. Fan from Surplus Center my favorite go to place for builds.Fan was $40 plus shipping it is a 24v double squirrel cage fan 3 speed. Spent another $40 for a heavy duty power supply. It looks identical to the one Grower has. Those filters were a steal was going to get a spare after thinking on it but he had sold all of them. Mine pushes 684 cfm free on high.

Actual filter size 38"x15". There are bargains out there just have to be patient. Surplus Center has all kinds of blowers reasonable.

Yep Illinois. I see quite a few items on eBay coming from Canada. Is it cheaper to send to the States from Canada. Than to Canada for the States?

i think it depends on who is sending on whats being sent. both countries have import taxes on certain things but the market in the US is so mush bigger than here so things can be provided cheaper (200 million vs 30 million)....but if you see a decently priced hepa filter shipping from Canada let me know!

I'm currently working on building Gr0wer's flowhood- have the same HEPA and blower (The HEPA was only $130!!!) - just need the lumber and the weather to fab it! And honestly I wouldn't have it any other way- I want to be as hands on/DIY as I can with my mycology- gives me more (selfish) pride. Plus I want to engrave it with "TravelAgency" (with a space rocket connecting the top of the T and the cross point of the A. And probably also the Logo I'm working on for my hopeful future business venture.

Edited to add : if you want links to my/Gr0wer's HEPA and blower I can dig up some links for you.

Picked this up for $20 today.  I pulled it all apart and cleaned it best I could. It was terribly greasy and dusty.  Pretty sure the motor's cooked or close to.  Anyway, I slapped some paint on it and hopefully can find a working motor at the same place.  It's a 1/5 hp so should do fine for a larger filter. Fan issue is kinda solved.

Hey- if you can get a working blower that will match the cfm of your HEPA (crucial for laminar flow) for under a hundred - run with it! My blower was just under $300. Do you know the specifications on it?

By the by- I've been absent in the time that you joined this forum (my company filed for bankruptcy a second time) but I would love to extend you a welcoming. Thanks for pursuing a burgeoning science that seems inaccessible to most. You are now amongst MycoGiants- read as much as you can on this forum (just be sure to check the date it was written as even in my tenure on the site the science has progressed quite a bit) and don't be afraid to ask questions (unless it's "what is a greenhouse" - in which case use the search engine- but I see you already have a pretty good understanding of fungi). The people here are wonderful and are in a constant state of excitement for our fellow myconerds and for the advancements that we citizen scientists make.

If you'd like a wedge - check my journal- I'd love to send you one!

Once again a belated welcome to you :wave: hope you enjoy your stay as much as I do

:seriousthumbsup:

Nice looking blower bigger is always better. You can always throttle it back some.
