I was going to buy one. Then I looked at my PVC parts cache and decided to build one.

Let me guess, you can build it yourself for twice the price?

it's a climate control device for a Volvo

Come-on Brettski,it keeps the beer from sweating in the fridge.

If I was beer in Tom G's fridge, I'd be sweatin' too

The Big Chub now on humidity control. What's next, I wonder.

Dwight, you seem to be attracting an inordinate amount of skepticism for what appears to be a well thought out and engineered project. Lest you become discouraged, be reminded:

"When a true genius appears in this world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him."

Obviously this quote is not completely applicable to this thread, because Dr. Willis definitely doesn't belong in confederacy, and JHAP hasn't chimed in yet.

So Dwight starts a thread on a Humidity Control Project and I get thrown under the buss the buse the really long thing with wheels that takes folks from one place to another.

Yes. JHAP now you are the one being lumped.
Amazing, I was just looking at some scrap pvc the other day, and thought, "I can make a cool humidity control device with that."
Alas, then one piece began to squirm, move about, grew hair, and trotted off for some 'muskrat love'.

The input sq. in. area is the same at the combined sq. in. area of the 14 small holes in the pipes.

Cecil!!!
Dwight found your boot

Yolk sac -- Dwight and I are northerners, not confederates.

Once again, I am glad the Internet doesn't support smell.

Is that your hair dryer or Gail's?

Tan's.

For us who are plumbing challenged

Yeah, it may be a bargain at $10, but it won't do a bouffant, beehive, or tease. (3 styles critical to social survival in Minnesota)

Sorry, I thought crew cuts and shaved heads were the style.

Looks like a fire hazard to me...

I am running a long term test now. I am in the room monitoring all phases of operations to see if they are within prescribed design parameters.

Dwight, and you going to let Cecil do the field tests? You might want to add a block-off plate so a person could do one boot alone if necessary.

When I tested the system I set the hair dryer on high though I really only planned to use it on low for boot drying. This was a worst case test that resulted in the worst case result; the PVC heated to the point of bending and distorting. With a little paint maybe I can sell on eBay as art!

Kinda looks like PVC Siamese twin sock puppets now.

Sink it as structure.

esshup, good one!

Now it has character!

Good design, just to much what-see on the hair dryer. Go to low on that and you should be good. It's not like you need to dry your boots in 34 seconds, have them burst into flame and get launched across the room.

You could always cut the toe outta the boots so the hot air can escape.

SHOOT IT!!!

It looks like a two-headed water snake after eating muskrats and is about to strike!

Dwight, this is probably isn't Tim Taylor enough for ya but how about something like this out of the spare PVC parts..

I bought that exact one for my son-in-law for Christmas.

For me, that would be like putting my boots by the heat register to dry them.
