Chad's Crappy Corner & His Final Gadget For His May Theme!

Chad polled our loyal Patreon members and asked them to vote on his cheap theme for May. Their choice was “Cheap DIY Gadgets”! This week Chad's final May DIY (we recorded this in May) pick is “Build Your Own Air Conditioner” Kit.

Chad found “Lady Lee's Homemade AC Unit”at the link below. If you're looking for a cheaper alternative to a real air condition and have a bit of DIY skill, you can build this 'air cooler' for about $20 and change. Lady Lee adds: “I watched some cool videos on YouTube on how to make a homemade AC unit and at the end, made up kind of my own simple design that doesn’t require the use of a drill or any power tool.” You'll see Chad build his in under 30 minutes with just a few things from a big box store. You need a foam cooler, a 4 or 6” fan and some PVC connectors, which are available everywhere at places like Lowes or Home Depot. And finally the only tool needed, a utility knife. Watch Chad build this and then show us how it actually did reduce the temperature as it ran! (And remember it's an air cooler, but it does 'condition' the air.)
