Covering both the parts with stockings, and stick it !

The inner cylinder is not stable inside the outer cylinder, so a base ring should be placed in the outer cylinder.

Fix the base ring first in the outer cylinder, and then the inner cylinder in it.

Fill the gap with activated carbon and make sure not to overload, as this may result in blockage of air flow.

- join the "fan looft" and the cap with cable tie.

- place it on the cylinders

- and fix an computer cooling fan on it.

( make sure the direction of the flow is up words/outside not the other way )
