Introduction: Homemade AC
Have you ever been stuck in a hot and humid dorm room with no AC? It can be a terrible experience but with a few cheap materials you can make your own AC in as little as 5 minutes.
The main concept of the idea is to have ice directly behind a fan which cools the air that is sucked into the fan, giving you a pleasant, cool breeze. The idea is convenient and can be used be any college student if they are without Air Conditioning.
