We have an extremly hot summer in my place so i had to figure out something which can cool us down.

Here comes the result :)

Watch the Video!!!

DIY Turbine Spray Bottle

Sprinkle with water yourself is a good idea in a hot summer day but how can we improve the effectiveness?

I bought 3 little hand fans for 5$! for all :)

The idea was to positioning those like shown on the picture to the top of the fan.

The most difficult part was to figure out how can i attach those together.

I searched for what everybody can find at home so i decided to use straws. I cut those to fit to the length of the fans.

I made a lot :)

I tried to make the connections curved so those fit nicely to the fans.

I used a hot glue gun but if you don't have i think you can use every kind of glue which sticks to plastic.

But investing to a hot glue gun is not a big investment so i suggest to do it ;)

Here starts the assembling parts.

I took the hot glue gun and glued the straw connections to the center fan.

When the glue strengthened I attached the side fans.

Be carefull and positioning well watch out for the switches!

I got a simple detergent bottle and cut out the shown shape.

Make this method twelve times. When i cut all of it i glued those together with super glue and made a flat stand for the fans.
