I just got a small blower motor with a squirrel cage fan, it was junked and I do not know from what but it works very well. The motor itself seems to get hot to the touch, is this normal or could this be why it was junked? If this is normal I would like to use this in the shop maybe for an air cleaner of sorts to help with the fine dust. I'm sure getting tired of dusting everything all the time. What would be the best way to to accomplish this. Maybe just a wooden box fitted with an air filter such as a 3M job?
Any hints would be great
