    How I built a fog-less coolant mister

    Hi everyone. I have been building a fogless coolant mister and I thought I would share how I did it. Most materials are available at a home improvement store. I have rigged up a solenoid valve which I can actuate from EMC2. I am pretty pleased with the result, and the total cost was about $120 dollars.

    Let's get started:

    Step one: Go shopping (any home improvement store will get you started).

    I started with the following:

    Inline water filer canister (you can bin the filter as all you need is the filter)
    Some 1/4 inch compression fittings
    Some barb fittings
    Some 1/4 inch rubber tubing (length will depend on your machine)
    Various pipe fitting (plan on making a few trips)
    An air pressure regulator
