Someone should put this in a server room and when someone walks in say "welcome to the Cloud".
hilarious!
Would be interesting to see how it'd work out in that heat and with so many fans trying to dictate airflow, until all of the servers died of course.😥
I'm filming a horror scene this Tuesday, and this tutorial has convinced me I can use my fog machine for the shoot. Many thanks!
I made this type of chiller a few years ago. It's main flaw is that it can't handle a large amount of fog at once. What we saw in the video was most probably a 400W fog machine that produces approximately 1,200 cubic feet per minuet. My 700W fogger produces 3,200 cubic feet per minuet. The fog traveled through the vent pipe so fast that it didn't stay cold. The best high capacity design is to have a PVC frame with wire mesh on top. A pipe goes through the middle.
The best fog chiller tutorial I've seen. I will try it. Thank you
Finally a real project!
Great to see you up and running KipKay! :D
Best project you have EVER done!
One of the coolest Projets ever.
I LOVE MAKEMAG
coolest project yet until now!!!!!!!!!!!!
Easy to follow instructions. I will try it this Halloween. Thanks for sharing.
this is proberly the best project from the weekend projects
doing this tomorrow for a party. Perfect timing!
Don't tape the fog machine onto the duct, you need the air to hit the solution to create more fog.
@-RIDEITLIKEYOUSTOLEIT- YES this is true! The fog needs to mix with the air to really create a lot of fog. If you do as he did, your machine will not create as much fog. Just leave the machine 3"-4" back from the inlet and 95% of the fog will shoot in, the remaining 5% will drift away. However, you will have 50% more fog going into the chiller.
@@SynergyAVE You could also simply cut venting holes into the intake hose, yeah?
@@neuronoc.7343 NO! The fog MUST mix with a ton of air first. I know it seems counterintuitive for it not to be connected, BUT, leaving it 3"-4" back produces so much more fog, that it is not even close. I used to connect them and one night I forgot to and could not believe how much more fog was being generated. Do a test yourself, you will be shocked.
Keep in mind that you can use the same trash with the holes exactly where her put them. Once the chiller is filled with ice, the fog will be pumped through the pipe and will hit the lid and be forced down through the ice. It will travel through the wire mesh and will escape through the second hole. These types of chillers can easily handel large capacity fog machines.
YOU HAVE THE BEST VIDEOS!!! VERY DETAILED!
this is definitely the best project ever
Brilliant design imma use my 2000w fogger I'm getting for my DJ setup will be intense but cool for Halloween I'm use two par cans for green lighting effects aswel
I love these fog things!
Finally, kipkay is back with something rather simple and interesting, like the weekend projects used to be :3
You just saved me so much money! Thank you!
I used silicone caulking to seal up around the dryer duct and it seemed to prevent melting ice from leaking. I haven't tried it in my haunted house yet, but I hope it will help make my graveyard creepier!
You should leave a little gap for the fog to mike with air so it gets thinker
@0:05 “Halloween is right around the corner”
Me: oh this video probably came out a few days ago (checks video date)
9 years ago
Me: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Perfect to go with my mighty mini fog maker!
this looks awesome
cool! deffently going to do this thank you!
nice one , i use it for my room , and it's AWESOME
Wait. What?!? Now just pull out your fog machine? Like I have one in my closet that I've been hanging onto for gawd knows what and here it is!
MAGNIFICENT!
I'm getting some good trunk or treat ideas from this stuff..
That is sick!
You always want to leave about 2-3in between the intake pipe and the fogger for good airflow.
Dang!!! That's awesome.
Thanks so Much for Sharing
awesome. just awesome. instant favorite.
That is SOOOO nice!
trick or treed. great project
thats pretty badass
THIS. IS. AWESOME!!!
have to make this for Halloween!
this is the stuff i want to watch!
ok, this is awesome
Awesome videos from this guy. they look great on my bigeframe wifi screen!
Awesomely cool!
This is really cool and awsome
yo kip better telling about this project is the mos coolest of the weekend
Allowing an air gap between your fog machine and the inlet hose will create massive output increases. The gap creates a venturi effect and trust me when I say the results will speak for themselves.
thats awesome
awsome!
I like the fact that this works with regular ice. I wonder tho how dry ice changes the effect if at all?
Heavier thicker but for the money not necessary I really isn't that big of a difference and it cost you a lot more to fill you want a good surface area first smoke and fog you don't want to filter the fog her to be 125 to go straight through ice the whole point is to chill the fog so it stays low running it through the pipe doesn't get that enough contact that's a stupid stuff that shouldn't be included in take the pipe out and shoot it into the garbage can full of eyes to get a lot better effect
To get a similar effect you can use a vaccum cleaner hose and stick straws in it until the complete opening is full of straws. Put this hose on your smoke machine. It isn't as good as using ice but its better when you didn't have the space for such a big device.
AWESOME!
i made this for halloween :D
it is awesome!
nice! great work!
cool!
YES! he´s back!
Weekend Project is the best xD
that's so awesome
I just made this and it works! I will post a video tomorrow!
RIP best make vids.
thats heaps cool
awesome!!!!!!!
That was really cool
Wow a weekend project i might actually make :D
YES! Kip Kay is finally back!!
love you KIp, great job ˆˆ
thats cool
Awesome! and when the ice melts it will be all over my floor!
Or, you could just use it outside. I guess some people need warning labels to cover EVERY base.
For leaking problems: Don't remove the ice from the bag itself, that way when the ice melts it stays in the plastic and you can freeze it again after or just throw them away without having problems of leaking. Just my 2 cents. :)
No. The fog cools down more if it has to bleed thru the individual ice cubes.. Rather than just seeping its way around the bag.
that is soooo cool
Awsome!!
Beast!
*suggestion* If you buy a few chauvet par 38 lights, and a Obey 3 by chauvet and some dmx cabels (you need as many dmx cables as you need lights) and set the lights to purple, it may make the fog look like its glowing under a blacklight. I have not tested this so I don't know if tis true... But its something cool to try out!
So Kool!
Cool!
great video as many are WAY too complicated but I will buy a 400w fog machine from Spirit Halloween and hope it lasts longer than the one I bought from Giggles which lasted one night!!
awersome
You rock
Looks around the corner again... YES IT IS!
Out of all the videos I've watched this is the only one I really might do
now thats cool
awesome
would it be alright if the holes were higher?...because when the ice melts won,t it leak water through the holes...just curiuos....but LOOVE your idea...gonna try it this october
Chauvet makes a fairly decent and cheap one called the Hurricane 700. (I think it's the one he's using in the video, actually.) It costs $30-ish, depending on where you get it. (I got mine a couple years back for around $25 at a party store in the first week of November when they were cleaning out their Halloween stock.)
Ok thats one thing i HAVE to make!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never built one thing from kipkay but thats a MUST!!!!!!!!!!
yay kipkay is back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
kipkay has been resurrected! bless the gods for the first good project in a long time!
yay! something useful!
@2:51 and the 8 seconds that follow are incredible
thats wary cool
Awesome...MakeMag!!! :)))
that is a very good one
very great idea :)
Thts awesome
i used a tote, and sat the machine on top, and spiraled the vent down, so you can fill the vent with ice, and with the center of the spiral open a lot of ice can fit in ther and get it really cold
it's the ultimate vape by kip kay!
Cool.
Kip Kay is back, yay!
i might have to build this one its easy and cool ...
Whaaat?! I thought you were going to show us how to make thee machine, but u just taught us how to improve one. But it's awesome though! Wow!
Super !
