Chill Out
Anyone who’s been to my place knows that the sliding glass doors instead of regular windows are the bane of my existence. Mostly because they negate my ability to install an air-conditioner.
But by gum, this DIY contraption might just offer a solution!
I’m TOTALLY going to try it.
I’m SUCH a nerd.

Hmmm, read a bunch on that the other day. The heat you produce generating the ice is more than the contraption is able to remove. Do some googling on ‘Swamp Coolers’. They’re pretty sweet but require a fairly dry climate (sorta the inverse of the west coast). Not sure what you can do to keep cool except drink lots of BEvERages…
