NB : There are some suggestions from other members in this section, for safer and reduce the risk of damage to electronical, there is a good idea to add some security components such as resistors or diodes. thanks to all member, thanks to assasinsareus, PhillipS1, Iceman1979, and vagoeng.
-If you do not adding any electro components, we recommend that you do not use your vacuum cleaner is too long in On position. use less than 1 minute in a single usage, wait a few seconds to use it again if your table has not been clean. Not recommended for clean room or a large area.
Step 8: Put a Filter and Finish
okay... now Your usb vacuum cleaner is done and ready to work. not pretty vacuum cleaner but it working..

Like the idea. I like the ideas about using alternative power sources and a self power USB hub.
You could adapt this to run off 12v as a car vacuum.
How about reversing the polarity to create a blower to clean out the PC it's connected to. If you use a stronger motor you could run it on 110v / 220v.

thank you :) , reversing polarity, I think with a small motor, 3-6volt, it is enough to simply clean up the dust-dust above the small work desk

Wow. This is so cool! I think that it might be better if you make it with big cardboard tube, instead of the bottle. Or if you have a 3D printer, make the parts with it. I'm gonna make this tonight! Thanks for the instructable!
