15 Min. Tower A/C

15 Min. Tower A/C

In this instructable (my first) I will show you how to make a simple desktop cooler capible of putting out air up to 30 degrees cooler than ambiant temperature. I will go over a list of the materials, how to assemble it and how to operate it. Not the prettiest thing but when its 90 degrees inside at night, who cares! Also do note that although there may be slightly similar ideas and designs this is my own original idea.

Duct Tape                                                               Screwdriver

Cut up the pipe!
First cut the pipe in two pieces one 4 in. and the other 6in. Then you will want to drill a 2 in. hole in the middle of the 6 in. piece (the longer one) of pipe. this is to let the cool air out.
