I have free access to a cheap attic fan similar to this one from HD as my dad replaced his with a solar unit.

I was thinking that I could turn it into a filtration unit for fine dust. I have enough left over ply to create some sort of housing and I figured I could just get a few furnace style filters in progressively finer porosity.
That may be a terrible idea and I would like to hear your opinion on it.
I do not spray finishes so I do not think there should be an issue with it not being explosion proof but would like to be corrected if I am wrong before I even start the project.
Again, I am encouraging you to be critical of the idea for both function and safety.
Thanks!
