That was freon you let escape. No freon = no chilliness
Now you have to go to prison for eco terrorism.

Sadly your fridge is toast. You might take it to a repair guy but I'm thinking that no repair guy will be capable of even dreaming about welding aluminum that thin.

And to make matters worse you may have a disposal problem. Many towns and states are forcing people to take their Window ACs and fridges to a licensed tech to have the freon removed before they'll let you toss it in the rubbish. If your state is one such then you'll still have to pay for the certification.

Of course you could just bring it to NJ or NY and toss it out the back of your car on the highway like everybody else does.
HEY~!! It's a hobby~!! It's NOT supposed to make sense~!!
