So I installed an external fan, and disabled the internal fan. NOW my glowforge SINGS!

Nice. I have toyed with the idea of an external fan as everyone talks about how quiet they are. But, not sure i am saavy enough to do it…

it will cost ya a couple of hundy, for the stuff you need. But its a pretty easy procedure.
if you post a picture of your setup (the vent / pipe / etc) I am sure one of out helpful ‘staff’ ME will guide you!

Sounds like a DJ scratching vinyl! 
LOVE my in-line fan! (And am still amazed someone as non-handy as me managed to hook it all up.) Enjoy the “music to your ears”!

Geeky me, I think it sounds like R2-D2 boops & beeps.

Ok, similar to mine!
you put the fan (mounted on the sill) in between the hose) (two short instead of one long) may not be the prettiest, BUT it sure is a LOT quieter!!!
Thanks, i’ll do a search on types of fans again and think about this:-)
the inline infinity is the go to fan round these parts!

Stepper motors are the most amazing things.
