What? Why not a Wally World box fan? My shop vac emits warm air & even though it's a big one, mounted on a 30 gallon barrel, it doesn't come close to a cheapo fan for air movement,sorry I don't like your idea very much...
Buy a new shop vac, sounds like you could use one.
Warm air? Fill the vac with ice.

If you saw mine you'd want it. It will suck up anything, even stuff you don't want it too. Like other good machines no longer mfg. Came from Iowa ~1974.
I think Harbor Freight sells a Chinese shop fan too.
FWIW, On Shark Tank(it's on ABC TV to you non believers) they told this guy from NC that based on his unwillingness to mfg this( neat looking!!!) folding ladder rack in China , that he could take a flying jump-literally ran him out of the room!Said his "stiffness was his weakness" Very next person in the room has an equally good idea & also wants to mfg in USA only & they climb all over the idea. Guess who had the biggest bazzokas?
Hint of the day: for a great shop vac-go to Greiners industrial supply or similar and buy a vac motor designed to go on your container and mount in a small barrel & put it on wheels for that sized barrel
Or, you could visit your local HVAC contractor and ask for a scrap furnace blower from one of his recent installs. Make sure you get one of the 110V versions and add a power cord. That should provide an adequate air flow.
This is a good solution. I made a shop air cleaner (sawdust, etc.) from one, and yes it moves a lot of air. Can probably get it for free or very cheap. However, you will need to mount it in a box and you will need to neck down the outlet of the box. These blowers are designed to work against a static pressure. Simply reduce the area of the outlet in the box until the motor draws the amps that are listed on the motor nameplate. Failure to do this could result in a fire.
