You ever hear of a hillbilly air conditioner? Buy a 40 quart cooler, cut hole in the top the size of a 10 or 8 inch fan and 4 inch 90 degree duct elbow. Fill with jugs of frozen water and plug up the fan. Youre welcome

I forgot. Place the fan face down in the hole you cut out and secure it. Itll blow into the ice filled cooler and cold air comes out of that elbow.

That’s just your normal in line fan u using is it ? Could I not have my inline intake running through the box u think ?
Yep just a basic fan. You could probably rig something up for your duct work. Just be sure to use bottles that are frozen. Way less mess and less chances of getting electrocuted
