Introduction: How to Make a Cheap & Portable Air Conditioner / AC Unit



(Sorry about the widescreen issue, trying to fix it now)

I created this while playing badminton with my dad outside. It just came to me so here is how to make a cheap,easy AC unit.

Step 1: Step 1: Materials

The materials are below in the image. If the captions don't show up here: Tin foil, duct tape, paper plate, scissors, clear plastic wrap, salt (lowers melting point, basic chemistry), and finally ice.

Step 2: Step 2: Wrap Tin Foil Around the Paper Plate

Wrap the paper plate in tin foil then tape it together with duct tape.

Step 3: Step 3: Add Ice

Add ice. It is crucial that you add salt because it lowers the melting point for the water which will make it change from solid to liquid to gas quicker.

Step 4: Step 4: Cover in Clear Plastic Wrap Then Secure With Duct Tape

This is the final phase. It is now a cheap quick AC unit. I hope you enjoy!
