Convert an old fridge so that it forms part of the hutch.

I was going to say that; a mate of mine made a dehumidifier that way.
Nice
and quiet, you shouldn't need the big noisy fan for your smallish shed.
Keep
the "heat rejection" coil at the back out of the sun, and with
reasonable
air access.

Hmm. That's a definate idea.
Am I going to be able to extract the heat exchanger / fit it to the
shed without breaking the pipes? Surely I can't break the seal or I'll
have refridgerant everywhere?


Just take the door off and put the fridge in a hole in the shed,

It would create more heat from the compressor than the fridge could
cool, so would in fact make it hotter.

Well that's true of all fridges/AC/etc. the trick is that the hot bit is on
the outside and the cold bit is on the inside with the fridge sticking
through the hole in the shed.
