DIY Cheap & Small Air Conditioner

A 017.jpg
Hello everyone.

I created that thingy to cool my room. Before we had central air, my room would get pretty hot in the summer. I decided to go ahead and create what I would call the Cheap & Small Air conditioner.

  This project cost me nothing, just some stuff that I had lying around in the house. The fans came from an old air hockey table.

Build time: Aprox 1 hour


EDIT: I had to redo a lot of the writing in there, I'm better now with English.

Item You Will Need

Scale and draw on the wood board cut-lines for the fans and for the cover, to fit perfectly in place. Make sure you can enter the two fan in the cover. After cutting holes and all fits in place, you cant paint the new cover (i paint mind with black spray paint) in the color of your choice.

Instaling the Fan

Add some ice, 2L frozen bottles, Ice packs, whatever is frozen... Under the cover to chill the air. When the warm air is forced inside the cooler and mixed to with the cold source the air will cool off.
