give me an idea of what type of radiator you plan to use. i was actualy looking at some aluminum pipe and some flat stock. i came across some aluminum soldering supplies at a trade show that uses a standard propane torch. the guy was patching nail holes in soda cans, and welding beer cans together with it. the stuff was neat!! one of the ideas i was looking at was a cyclinder made up of smaller diamater aluminum pipe with the same type of verticle cooling fins as the resorator. all of the pipes would be connected( the logistics of flow, method of connection, and everything else is till up in the air) with a silent fan running at the bottom blowing straight up. we have tons of boat shops out here who have scraps of aluminum laying around that just might fit the bill. and a friend of mine anodizes paintball markers, so i just need to buckle down and try it. any suggestions would be great.
