A utility knife or something similar to cut the foam with. I already had one.

1. You'll want to make sure the fans work. Take one pack of fans out of the box.
2. Daisy chains the 3 of the fans together. Then plug them into one part of the fan splitter. Then plug the fan splitter to the power adapter. And then plug that into the wall. The fans should start working and spinning.
3. Take out the second set of fans and follow step 2 to make sure it also works.
4. Next you'll want to check whether the lights work for all the fans. Note that they need a seperate power source than the fans.
5. So you'll want to daisy chain the 3 light cables attached to the fans together. Then you'll connect it to the controller that it came with. You'll connect the SATA end of the controller to one part of the SATA splitter. Then you connect the SATA splitter to the SATA to USB adapter. Then you plug that in. The controller that came with the fans should light up and you should be able to select the lighting mode.
6. Repeat step 5 for the second set of fans/lights.
7. Now that we know that the fans and lights are working and connected. We should build the parts needed to mount the fans. The air filter that I'm using is 20" x 25" x 1".
8. I cut the foam boards into 2 pieces that are 10.2" wide and 20.2" long. One of the pieces will be used to mount 3 fans.
9. I cut the foam boards into 2 pieces that are 10.2" wide and 25.2" long. One of the pieces will be used to mount 3 fans.
10. You'll want to first draw 3 circles on each of the 2 foam boards that you'll be using. You'll be cutting the circle using a tool. I used a utility knife. You'll want it to fit whatever fans you decide to use. In this case I needed it to be 120mm x 120mm.
11. Once the fan holes have been cut, I used the fan grills attachment holes to make 4 very small holes. These holes will be used so the screws can go from the fan grill, through the foam board to the fan.
12. I then put the fan on the inside part of the foam board and the fan grills on the other side. And used screws to attach them together between the foam board.
13. Repeat steps 11-12 for each fan. Make sure to space them apart.
14. Now you can tape the foam boards around the filters to build the box. Make sure that you remember to allow the power cables and controllers to be outside of the box.
15. Now you can plug it all in and enjoy!
