RE: Have you ever made a deer cooler?
I was looking to builda cooler as well. ended up with a box 4x8x8. 1/4 inch hard styro on inside , had luxury of avail piece on concrete to put it on . spoke to Cooling repairman. said forget A/C , for 1 week ? get a piece of dry ice , size of a masonary brick. put in cooler, open lid during day, close at night based on temp inside. no need for power or noise /cost of A/C unit.
chunk of ice is about $20 . Also depends on how cool nights are in your area, works for us. NW Ontario. w.
