AC in the basement

I don't want to admit how long it has taken, but I finally have cold air flowing from the basement!

Lenny,

None of your links will work for me :thinking:

I figured it out, you need to remove the "[URL] or "[IMG]" from the end of each of them if you wantr tem to work as links. If you want the images to show up in the post, you need to click on [IMG] before and after each link, and make sure that you have images enabled on your profile page.

Do you lower the a/c unit once you are at camp?

First shot is the travel position, third is the at camp and operating position. Fourth is the return air register and thermostat. I still haven't figured out how to embed...

That's what I thought. Great idea :applause:

I thought that you had to enable something in your profile to post pictuers, but I just checked my profile, and the only things you have to enable are similies and HTML.

To embed a picture, click [IMG] then add the address of the picrute, and click [IMG] again. That should do it. I think that someone said that you can't have any spaces in the address of the picture.

Lenny,

Looks like it turned out real well. What did you end up using for the ducting. Here's what I was talking about at the gathering. http://www.ducting.com/Arctic_Duct_III.html This stuff held up to a lot of abuse.

Looking good!! :thumbsup:

Dave

By the way, my son got the job at TAC and will be moving that way in the next few weeks. I've never seen a kid so excited.

Dave

I found vinyl vent hose at an old-school Tru-Value in town. At $2.85 for six feet, I've got spares to carry and no need to worry about it holding up!

I should have the cab off the frame, and blown apart for trim and finish during the next few weeks. If you need help with the move, let me know. I can put the utility deck on and come haul.

Just highlight the url and hit the Img button. It automatically puts [img]in%20front%20and[/img] in back of the url for you!!!

Cool idea with the air conditioner!!! :lol:

Lenny,

Thanks for the offer of help. TAC is moving him. They already have a place to stay and God seems to be taking care of all of the details. :thumbsup: Cindy and I are just happy to see him getting a good start at a young age.
