I used a 4" electronics fan ($4 on the remainder table) and found it too
loud.  I then grabbed a ceiling fan speed control at the hardware store,
put it in an outlet box, and slowed it down to a few hundred RPM's.

All off-the-shelf hardware.  The fan control came with wiring instructions.

But it still hums....
