Wicked Makers' Jaimie and Jay walk through building a simple, low-cost fog chiller from everyday household materials in about an hour. Fog from a standard fog machine is routed through a PVC inlet into an ice-filled plastic storage bin, where it cools and exits as a dense, ground-hugging rolling fog effect. Chicken wire inside the bin keeps the ice elevated while letting chilled fog pass through freely. The build requires no specialized tools and is explicitly designed to be family-friendly.
