DIY Air Cooling Dog Bed
Make a dog bed that acts as an air conditioner! Cut four wood boards for the bed frame and attach the boards in a rectangle. Cut several holes along the back edge of the bed, attach PVC pipe connectors in each hole, and attach computer fans in front of the holes inside the bed frame. Attach pieces of PVC pipe in each of the connectors, attach additional pipes and connectors to wrap around one side of the bed, and put a slotted end cap on the end of the side pipes. Attach the pipes in place with zip ties and wire the fans to an power supply. Stretch a piece of hardware cloth over the top of the bed and attach it in place with fabric fasteners. Put the bed in a shaded location, preferably over a concrete or stone floor, put frozen water bottles inside the pipes, and turn on the fans.
