The 47th TPBM Random Lazy Days (or not) Chat Thread

The box is all my own work, and as it turns out it would have been cheaper to buy one . But this one is very sturdy.

No satisfaction in buying one!

Hey Chief. Long time, no hear.

Hi, J.J. I've been spending a lot of time in the garage working on bicycles. It's getting hot now, so I won't be out there very much for the next 5 months or so, although I did inherit a swamp cooler that I can use in emergencies.

It looks very good, Neil. I'm impressed.

Dare I ask what a swamp cooler is?

Basically a large vented box that draws air in through the sides. The sides have a media (straw) that is soaked with water by a small pump. The air blower sucks the air in through the wet media, that cools the air, which is then blown into the spaces to be cooled.

Same principal, albeit somewhat smaller, as those monster cooling towers you play with.

Those monsters are fun though.

Now I have to deal with ACC (Air Cooled Condensers) these days.

Harm if you work with industrial cooling stuff have you come across a company called Hamon

my eldest brother (the clever one in the family)is a bigwig there.
