@@JohnDoe-df2zz Right! Got to go the lil brother line.

@@armandoesparza1409 Damn, I actually Just sold it. I thought I had, I intended to at least.

Oh wow, I think it could have been more than an hour. If I remember correctly All I had to put on was the handle and the casters.

Works differently

That would be an awesome project just to build. But both of those answers hurt the mobility if that was a core philosophy of use.

I bought mine when prices were a little higher during COVID. They're back down to a reasonable price. Our coasters were the same, but I immediately changed them out. I went from 6-in down to 4-in neoprene so it rolls super smooth, and it fit under the table now that I needed to park it under

@@slvrbk oh ok, makes sense. home depot had 15% off so that's how i got it cheaper.

@@NoName-hy2cq That's a good price, I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. Depending on your environment, there's plenty of different caster options, have recently moved it to a garage so I'm thinking about taking off the neoprenees and putting in 6-in rubber off-road casters. Mine were not direct bolt either, I drilled holes and used threaded inserts. But just know it's an option

@@slvrbk i had the delivery guys put the casters on the wrong side (thought the handle could go on either side), and now i cant change them out b/c i cant lift it myself lol. but i just use it in my office to hold various things but not really tools (im not handy at all lol). it's overkill for my needs but i liked the matte black finish and indestructible nature of it.

@@NoName-hy2cq yeah I cheated, I had a forklift so I just picked it up and got under it. If it ever bothers you too much, you get a standard floor jack for a car, put a 2x4 under it to keep it steady. Then put some blocks under it so it doesn't tip, and change them out.

If you got plenty of ice and batteries then yes. Especially recirculating the interior air. I recently got promoted to an air conditioned office right after I built this so, I still have this unit, if you'd rather buy one than build one, I'd be willing to part with it. We can work something out if you like.

@@slvrbk I’d much rather by from you than end up doing a full build out

@@slvrbk sounds good to me, only question I have is, how bad is the condensate? That does seem like one of the only things the icy breeze is better at, due to the condensate dripping back into the cooler

@@Cameron72737 it does have condensate. It's not terrible but it wouldn't hurt to lay down a rubber catch mat under it, especially if there's carpet in the van. The icy breeze is a good concept but has way less power with that style of fan. On a shop floor condensate wasn't an issue for me and I wanted power and flow. It's a trade off, but a rubber mat from home Depot will keep it dry. The biggest draw back for me was the proprietary batteries, that's what really started the build. I didn't want to buy extra one off batteries when I have plenty of Mills laying around. Just let me know what you decide.

@@slvrbk sounds great, I’ll take it for the price you stated, busy today but I’ll get with you shortly. Last question, can you control the fan speed on your build? Or is it just one speed?

I'll look into it, thanks

I believe I got them at home Depot? Maybe. And no the pattern did not match. I drilled and put threaded inserts in there.

@@slvrbk Thank you for your answer. Good info.

Maybe on a request basis sure.

What would you charge? I'm actually interested in purchasing this 😅

@@arthurguerrero8255 For my time probably $150 plus cost of materials and shipping. I want you to be aware that there is a production model called icy breeze that might be cheaper than a one-off build from me.

But if you're truly interested, We can probably work something out.

No, actually I had it shipped from home Depot to the plant that I worked at and I built it out from there. So my mobility I was speaking of was on a production floor in between equipment. But if I were needing to move it, I would just pick it up with a forklift and strap it to a flatbed trailer and tell you where I needed it. I guess in practice though I just take things out of it and throw it in a Milwaukee pack out and throw in the back of the truck.

Personal preference really, But at the beginning of this project I was not aware of the icy breeze, I found out halfway through and then made a decision to continue with mine. but there's a couple reasons, first the preferences, I already owned most of what this project took, it was way cheaper for me to build it then to pay for a $300 cooler. I think my final cost of the items I didn't have was about $65. To make it neat and button it up. Secondly, I enjoy building things. Third, I absolutely hate proprietary batteries. I could have had somebody 3D print me a battery adapter sure, But I already own an excess of Milwaukee batteries, So for my personal build I can run my unit for two days straight without having to recharge batteries if I'm out camping or something. And to be honest, I started this project before I knew about the icy breeze, I did find out about it halfway through the build and honestly after watching many reviews on the unit and reviewing the power consumption and design, that little fan that they use is going to give you just that a cool breeze. I use this in a factory setting in the middle of the summer and I want an icy blast, I wanted a little bit more out of the fan. I understand my preferences are not for everybody but there are plenty of people that are in the same situation as I am and have power tools and already have a platform of batteries that could be utilized, and that's half the damn cost.

Appreciate the feedback, highly recommend if you are in the market for something like this.

You're welcome, thank you.

You know, I don't remember off the top of my head, and I'm not at work right now. But it does say it. I do measure it with a square in the video closer to the beginning.

Thank you!

So my final build I ended up switching out the fan for a centrifugal blower. this increased my velocity to 5.5 meters per second or 12 mph, with the axial Milwaukee fan I was about 2.8 meters per second for air velocity. It worked but the blower handles static pressure so much better. Here is a link to the short. kzfaq.infofK_W0aAu5T4

Oh dang, can't beat that. Probably works well as a booster!

It does, but the fan is loud when cranked up. I keep the fan on low

Could do that as well. Good idea.

Exactly! I saw the roybi ones at HD and they are nice but all my batteries are Milwaukee🤦🏻‍♂️

Can u get a adapter for ryobi batts to run Milwaukee fire hazard maybe lol

I can get one together. Check back tomorrow. I'll have most of the components The hose is 3/8.

​@@slvrbkhi there. That page appears to be down...

Thank you!

You are right, the icy breeze, I did see that in the process of the build, couple things I don't like about it. First the value, something creates value to me If I can buy it for cheaper than I can build it. And I built it for half the price. The second thing I don't like is the proprietary batteries on their new version. Good business move but I don't want another battery platform laying around, especially if I only get use of it during the summer, then those batteries sit around and decay if I don't maintain them properly, which I probably won't if I don't look at it 9 months out of the year. So I started with the ideas of using what I had and sticking with my Milwaukee platform because I have plenty of those batteries and they get charged regularly and maintained. I did end up changing a few aspects. I tested four different builds over the last 2 months. And I'm also a little sketchy if all the claims made on their website hold true, especially with the 25 mph air velocity with the tiny little fan that they use, my M18 fan with no static pressure. Only got 17 mph. And that was the highest of all the fans I tested. However, here's a link to my newest and final build by completed yesterday. This answers all of the issues for me, and total price of this build is less than $150 and not $340 for the platinum Icy breeze. Thank you for your comment, here's the link. kzfaq.infofK_W0aAu5T4?feature=share

Forgot to mention one other factor, the company states that it takes up to 5 hours to recharge a dead battery. It's a 12 volt 10 amp hour battery. My Milwaukee batteries fully recharge in an hour. That's another reason why I use them for pretty much all of my projects, not just this one. They also claimed that that 10 amp hour battery runs for 6 hours on low and the amp draw is 1 amp. The math doesn't line up.

Thank you. That was the first version, here's the final kzfaq.infofK_W0aAu5T4?feature=share

As far as? Depending on which aspect you're talking about, it could be dependent on the situation. Power consumption? I feel like it's fair. Cost of ice? I may take this out to the lake with the kids sometime, or maybe while I'm bailing hay with my father, other than that, the purpose for me was to use it in plant while I'm working. Where 100° day is 120° inside and we just happen to have two industrial ice makers, So because of the resources available, this is economical for me in this instance and most likely some others. Cost of the build? It could have been cheaper. Overall? Nothing's going to beat the good old R134A But that's not going to work in the situations I want to use it (power supply/consumption vs mobility). Evaporator coolers or swamp coolers are great ideas in areas with low humidity. So to your answer, overall, if there is, I haven't found it yet. But if you got any ideas, I'm all about FAFO.

Also, to be fair, I'm not a scientist, I had a problem and I made a resolution. In the middle of the day when I've been swimming in my own sweat for hours, I'm just looking for A solution, I don't care if it gets 8 miles a gallon.

kzfaq.infofK_W0aAu5T4?feature=share Check this one out, just finished it up. The one you just watched was my first iteration. I did four different configurations and this link is the short video for the final version which nailed down everything I wanted. Full video is still being edited. I did see that Ryobi fan almost bought it but I got the M12 mountable I figured I would use that more.

That cooler is twice the cost of that whole build, but it is on my buy list when I become a rich old man! I went to rednecks with paycheck this spring and almost bought one for my four-wheeler which I mounted a pack out plate on the rear rack just for it, last minute I flaked out and got the XL tool box and used that instead. I couldn't drill into it without crying if I did buy it though.

Thanks Boss, I appreciate it!

In the works, hopefully will be done within the week.

I've got one in the works, not a complete breakdown where I show the work but explain it and I'm trying different configurations.

Great idea! Will not work for my space needs and I'm content with my set up, but I'm sure someone would love to do that.

That was just me bro.

I'm kidding, the pouch is a toughbuilt the tote is a Husky 20" I think.

www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-20-in-Pro-Tool-Tote-with-Removable-Tool-Wall-67129-02/306052568 Try this or the Milwaukee pack out 20 inch tote. If you're interested in something like that.

@@slvrbk the one in his video must be a different brand or model because I have the one in the link you sent and it only has one pouch on the end his has two. But thank you I didn't know Milwaukee made bags

@@MODzero556 you are right, So it is actually the previous model to that one in the link or yours. I got this one in 2017 and I think about 2020, they switched models. These are the bags we've been buying for our new techs since 2014. The new Handel seems More robust But I do prefer the layout of the old one.

There isn't much I get that brings me a smile everyday a year later. This does and I hope It does for you as well.

On high, ambient temperature 85°. Water level just above the pump head, the rest of the cooler full of ice, just over 4 hours. Have not tried the salt trick yet.

@@slvrbk pretty sweet just gotta figure a housing deal for the whole thing

@@michaelmattia4966 What type of housing you thinking? For the electrical? things are ordered with a low voltage cut off to protect the batteries. I'll have a full vid after that's all done. Or are you talking about something else?

@@slvrbk just like for all the parts to sit together like a little makeshift cabinet something that you could just roll around and plug in maybe have some extra space for some extra m18 batteries maybe even a big 12v battery and an inverter get top notch overkill with it lol maybe even a spot for a air filter or even some slots for a piece of duct on the blowing side of the fan so you could get all the air right to you instead of having it dissipate. Geez that was long winded lmao but you asked what I meant so food for thought I suppose

I use EVA foam, I got it from Amazon, the top "black" is 6 mm thick and the underlying foam is 2 mm thick, for colored cutouts. White was a terrible choice but it's cheap, there are other color options. The typical foam people use is called kaizan foam. They're pretty proud of it. It comes with a pretty steep pice tag.

@@slvrbk Thanks!

Thanks buddy, I appreciate it.

Thank you, definitely worth the money. If you're looking at one.

I like that hat, the curls are cute too.

@@slvrbk I am

@@slvrbk Thanks for the compliment!

Thanks man, I appreciate it.

Hey brother, I’m interested in making something like this. Do you have any plans or maybe a some links of what you used? Appreciate any feedback.

Yea, no carbs to rebuild here. I could lower it if I needed to use it and I don't sit, but no I wouldn't want carb cleaner that close to my face. Any type of solvent cleaning in this setting is done in a special solvent catch tank. I do solder on occasion; I use the flexible magnetic alligator clips and the Milwaukee top off for the power source. Works fine for me, but I don't do it day in and day out so someone that does may have stronger preferences. I just measured it, my normal table top height is 45 inches, this is an inch or 2 below my elbows, allows me to stand with back straight and arms bent like you were saying. Thanks for the comment.

@@slvrbk hadn't thought about the solvents, was thinking more about tiny assemblies... But awesome tour!

@@paradoxworkshop4659 Perfect for those, I think I had your intended message backwards. I'm tracking now. But thanks, I appreciate it.

You know what? You win, I'm tearing down a pressure washer carb right now, and I'll be damned if it's not cranked up right now. I got to learn to keep my mouth shut! You're right though, it is nice.
