Need a nut to secure the fan. Well, my fingers are too fat.
Also, probably not enough room in the Orange Pi Zero 2 case. The Noctua fan has long thick cables. And that adapter, makes it even taller.
I’ll look for a new case now.
I bought that 3D printed adapter. Only one screw would stay in for the 40mm part. So maybe the holes aren’t threaded correctly. Didn’t test one hole.
Think I blew the dust out of the case too.
The fan was probably making noise, cause of a cable.
Might be hard to find a case for it. Don’t have a 3D printer.
Well, cheaper to mod the case. Need a drill or something. Put the fan on the outside. And put the cables through a hole on the outside as well.
Now to lookup prices of a drill.
$79 for a Kobalt. Better then Walmart’s brand. But probably overkill.
My crappy Walmart rotary tool, might be able to do it. And might have come with two drill bits. Just have to get it at my mom’s house.
That’s free. Unless I need to buy a bit.
Rotary tool useless. Lucky I didn’t hurt my thumb as well.
New fan is slightly more messed up as well. Messed it up trying to screw it onto the adapter yesterday.
And another feature of the iPhone, is shitty image stabilization. How about the “smart” phone uses the flash? Also, if it takes too long to take the photo, I’ll be moving.
Don’t have any issues with my micro four thirds cameras. I use a flash inside though.
Also, too lazy to force the flash on, as it’s a “smart” phone, should figure it out itself.
Would be cheaper to pay to get a case printed, but might be a waste of money, if the print has one or more issues. Borrowing a drill might be cheap.
Is a drill easier to use then a rotary tool?
There’s a manual way to punch a hole in metal. I have a hammer. Just need the other thing. That might be the “safest” way. But might be too weak to do that.
Oh wait, not that safe. I have fat fingers and thumbs.
