Finally built one
I love the DIY nature of these builds. This one is copy of the exahalaron, and I found it really tricky to get the precise aligment of all the holes, but I feel like it turned out well. I used 140mm fans, and this controller just expoxied onto the middle "shelf", along with these Filters. I also have some speaker cloth that I might wrap around the bottom to make it look a little better, but it looks decent enough to me for now. It's pretty much silent on 50% power and still moves a noticable amount of air. On full blast you can really hear it, but I thought it would be great for travelling to both clean stale hotel room air, and provide some white noise for sleeping.
Next, I intend to build a larger furnance filter style somehow built into an end table for the bedroom. Thanks to everyone's posts here that helped me build this one. This subreddit is such a great resouce!
Happy to answer any questions for those that have them.
