If you like soldering stuff but get annoyed by the fumes - here's a USB powered fume extractor. The device is very easy to power and uses the standard 5V USB standard. However, a 5V fan won't pull much air and that's why x2Jiggy went a step ahead and used a boost converter board to pump it up to 12V. The wooden hobby box encloses the entire assembly and has air-vents at the bottom.

Check out the video that shows the fume extractor demo. Who's gonna build one for your own DIY projects?
