What happens here
The first step in construction is to create a wooden frame around the horse trough. This frame is crucial for holding insulation and integrating the chiller. After measuring the trough, lumber pieces are cut using a miter saw (Ryobi). The frame is assembled using a drill and screws, with pocket holes added for strong joints. The design is then tweaked to extend one side by approximately 20 inches, creating a dedicated compartment for the water chiller. This ensures the chiller is concealed and the unit has a clean, integrated look similar to more expensive models. The trough is placed into the frame to check for a snug fit.
