The slugs are that thick as thats what I have. I could knock them down quite a bit on the belt sander, but then I'd have to make them smooth again. I've got some stuff to do that, but for the disc part of my belt/disc sander.

So no problem doing turbulators (which I assumed...) but will it hurt the performance if I don't, especially given the thickness of the slugs.

Edit: so crush the tube in my vice or something to make it more 'flat'? cutting the tube in half seems like a bad idea. I could, but the copper plate stock I have is thicker than the bar stock.
