As a side note I added 3M stick on hooks when I first purchased this fan with a Velcro cable tie to hold the power cord in place.
First of all: I applaud you on your MacGyver skills!

On the Merv: 1-4 grades are what are in basic air conditioner filters, and 5-8 are generally used for anything from commercial buildings to factories so 7 should be fine unless you are spray tanning within some pretty hazardous places!

Also, is this the Backdrop assembly video you've seen? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRNXQyeMNUw
