How do you plan to hook it up to your ducts?

I've been thinking about it a while but haven't pulled the trigger yet. Like tou im just running it pretty innefficiently and having my miners sitting naked on a shelf.

I'm thinking to 3d print a stand so the miner can sit vertical. Then print a round duct adapter and cut a hole in my return duct.

If I pipe that straight up to my return duct, not sure if there is enough pressure to push the air all the way up? Maybe need another larger inline fan?

I've got a handful of miners to potentially hook up so thinking to make a box and set several miners in there... then pipe that box to the duct... analysis paralysis is real!

Right now my current (broken and I fixable) heating unit is in the attic. It’s basically a big metal box now. So I’m using it as a platform to sit the miners. I’m putting the miner into a big “tool box” essentially, and cutting 6” holes in either side for my added ducting. Then Im going to connect one side to the input/return on the right of the heater, then taking the other side and cutting into the main “hub” for upstairs air flow - also basically a big empty metal box with like 5 ducting lines coming out of it like spider legs.

Not the prettiest design, but should work with manual control for the time being. The next stage after that is to figure out a way to control a relay that cuts it on and off via a temperature sensor. (Basically do a simple circuit thermostat)

Then the third stage is to remove the miner from directly inline with the airflow, do immersion cooling, and pipe everything through a radiator.
