How to make a mini vacuum cleaner from a hairdryer for cleaning cracks and narrow places - step-by-step instructions

Housewives often encounter problems when cleaning hard-to-reach places. A great life hack is to make a vacuum cleaner out of a hairdryer; with its help, cleaning goes perfectly quickly.

Required Tools

Before you begin remaking the device, you should prepare the tools that will be needed during work. The list of necessities includes:

hair dryer;
empty plastic bottle;
ball pen;
insulating tape;
lighter.

Actually, this is all that is required to make a mini-vacuum cleaner out of an old hairdryer. The device is suitable for cleaning hard-to-reach places, such as cracks or narrow openings. The homemade product can also be used to clean a car; it will cope with the task quickly, and most importantly, efficiently.

Step-by-step assembly instructions

Assembling an alternative to a vacuum cleaner from an old hair dryer will not be a problem. This does not require any serious skills or technical knowledge.

The conversion process is as follows:

First you need to remove the back cover, this is quite simple, it snaps off without any effort. Set the part aside.
The next step is to prepare the plastic bottle. Using a knife or scissors, you need to cut off the top part. And then melt the edges with a lighter, in which case it will not injure your hands when used.
Next you need to unscrew the lid from the neck of the eggplant, and then heat its front part with a flame. As soon as it warms up to a soft state, you need to use the handle to make a spout; to do this, the tip of the handle should be pushed forward. This must be done quickly so that the material does not cool down, otherwise nothing will work. The tip is cut off to create an exit hole.
Screw the cap with the pipette into place, and then connect the bottle to the hairdryer and securely secure it with insulating tape. You can use construction tape instead of electrical tape.
A plastic bag or fabric bag is attached to the other side of the hairdryer; you can just wear an old sock. The collected garbage will go into a kind of container.

In this simple way you can make a vacuum cleaner for collecting small debris in hard-to-reach places. There is nothing complicated or time-consuming in the assembly process; everyone, even a beginner, can cope with the task.

Methods of application

You can use a mini vacuum cleaner in different ways. For example, for its intended purpose, that is, for cleaning an apartment, a homemade device is convenient in that it is capable of removing debris and dust where its traditional counterpart cannot reach due to its large size.

The device can be used to clean the computer system unit, where dust often accumulates. It is enough to unscrew the lid, remembering to first disconnect it from the power supply, and collect all the accumulated dirt with a vacuum cleaner collected from a hair dryer.

For vehicle owners, a converted hair dryer can be used as a car vacuum cleaner. Store-bought equipment is expensive, so it is often irrational to purchase it. Plus, it doesn't clean much better than its miniature brother.

But the assembly is slightly different from the previous version:

remodeling begins with disassembling the hair dryer and thoroughly cleaning all internal parts;
after they get rid of the diode bridge and all heating elements, they will no longer be useful;
Next they deal with the cord, replacing the plug with a plug that will fit the car socket;
Next, a bottle is attached to the hair dryer, its diameter should correspond to the body of the hair dryer, dirt will collect in it;
the grill itself is covered with a viscose napkin, everything is fixed with electrical tape.

It remains to check the device for functionality. This vacuum cleaner does an excellent job of removing dust, getting rid of small crumbs, and the car interior will always be clean.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated in the assembly; you do not need to purchase any additional parts to create a vacuum cleaner. All you need is a simple hair dryer, a plastic bottle and some insulating tape. The manufacturing process itself takes a few minutes, but it will serve for many years.
