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?

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.

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'.

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)

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. \:D

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!
