A 48qt Vortex Igloo Ice Cube Chiller Fog Chiller Construction pictures by bpesti - Photobucket. I personally don't have diagrams or printed instructions for my chillers because I liked the free-form experimentation aspect of figuring out how to make them work, but for my part, I posted photos on Photobucket with descriptions a long time ago. I successfully used Krylon Fusion Camo Ultra Flat Black (no need for primer) in Wal-Mart's paint section. Packing a tube with frozen water bottles is not necessary and will in fact slow down the fog output. Note that anything corrugated like a dryer duct will create a wavy effect to the fog. Experiment with the size you cut it down to. Note for creeping, lower-lying fog, use a Hefty trash bag on the chiller outlet. I used my Vortex Igloo Cube to make a fogging cauldron while I used my trash can chiller with a Hefty bag on the outlet for graveyard fog successfully. I had two 400W Gemmy foggers which shut off a lot. The thing about that Vortex Manual thread is a lot of us intentionally experimented to see how we could get our intended effects for the outdoor or indoor, large or small foggers, large or small areas, windy or not and shared ideas and results. F) Not part of the Vortex thread but here's a "$20 chiller." Otaku explains his mod on page 54 of the monster Vortex Chiller Manual link I posted above and there's the E) a trash can style Vortex design (not to be confused with the Ghosts of Halloween trash can design) this one shown acts like a large cooler and uses no dryer ductwork. It can also be made out of things the size of kitty litter pails and 5 gallon buckets for smaller indoor areas B) a larger 120qt Coleman if you happen to have a 1000W or higher or 1300W constant fogger (which you do not) gmacted made one shown here and I believe Zombie-F uses this design and then there's C) Ghosts of Halloween trash can design shown here and D) a modified version of the chiller you're looking at in the link in your post. See the Vortex thread and my Photobucket links below in the last paragraph. Bottom line is that the DIY chillers that work are the A) Vortex Igloo Ice Cube Chiller 48qt or 60qt size of which Wal-Mart has in stock right now in season. There's a lot of discussion of testing on inlets, outlets and attachments. There's a bunch of dead links in that thread and a lot of discussion on trying to tweak a couple basic designs. That's a loaded question! ) Give yourself 2 hours and start reading our Vortex Chiller Manual thread:
