That is my .02
I don't know too much about peltier systems, but I think I'm going to try to do without, since i heard you can easily go below ambient temperature with pelts which can cause condensation, or are pelts safe to use really? Anyway I'm a TOTAL noob when it comes to pelts.

I was looking over some of those Rotor Blocks and a lot of customs on this forum...

1 thing that comes out, wow that guy Jaydee is amazing, anyway he uses a mill for this designs, however this one...



Do you think you can accurately do this with a drill and a good stand for it?

If so i might try to do that...

Since it seems like it would perform a lot better than just a plain Rotor block... Am I right?
