The simplest setup would be a couple of small 5 or 6 inch fans from your
local department store, the best way would be a couple of 5 inch muffin
fans mounted in your hood, You can get the fans from a computer supply
house which will need a 12 volt supply, or you can get them as 110 volt
from a place like radio shack. For the short turn just go to the
hardware store and get a fan you place that will blow on the waters surface.
