Filter Stack Generator

An OpenSCAD generator for a horizontal fan + filter stack using commodity parts, designed to be tweakable in the Customizer and practical to print and assemble.

What I Built

I built a modular model around the full airflow path: magnetic intake, bulk media volume, main filter, fan section, and exit components. The goal was to use easy-to-source parts while still keeping room for experimentation and tuning.

What I Learned

For physical design projects, customization is most useful when paired with sane defaults. Giving each stage a clear purpose made it easier to iterate without getting lost in parameter combinations.
