DIY Humidifier - The 'Cheap and Cheerful Mk1 '
#1
DIY Humidifier - The 'Cheap and Cheerful Mk1 '
   


Todays experiment - the 'Cheap and Cheerful Mk1'   DIY Humidifier!    Rolleyes
  • 2 litre   'snap-lock' lunchbox (takes the pressure well - no leaks)
  • 2x 25mm  plastic pipe inserts (For 25mm O.D.Pipe! -   nearer to 20mm in actual size)
  • C.A.Glue 
  • 19mm spade bit

Outlet in the centre of the lid - so if the box gets tipped on its a side, you won't suddenly dream you are drowning...

Unheated - at least for now.   Humidity in my room was 53 %   - using the 'Cheap and Cheerful Mk1 '  air was coming into the mask at about 75%. (Perhaps it could be floated in a bucket of hot water?)

If nothing else - I think it may  be nice on a really hot night, filled with ice-cubes?

Cheers

PS

Cost : approx £6.00   ($7.52)  Could be cheaper if you are brave enough to  raid your wifes kitchen cupboard)
