DIY fan speed control using pot/rheostat

Has anyone tried this? This is a regular 80mm, 12V fan, driven by walwart. I imagine soldering a rheostat in series to the +ve would allow me to do this. Perhaps one of the drawback is the pot might get hot, but then again, I could be wrong.
I want to KISS on this, as long as it works. Btw, the fans sitting on top of the gears (I have two of them cooling one each).
TIA
ps: Rat Shack items would be preferable since I can grab them quicker.

I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.
