    Dam! I was hoping i could get some pointers on making one myself. I've seen another home made one, but it was really large and the fins weren't so tight and neat. Ideally I need to make 2 which aren't any thicker than 75mm. A DIY jobbie isn't going to be as efficient, but hopefully worth it.
    Anyway, really great work. I love the polished copper piping, although you must have stole my top secret plans! ;) a click of the man with the huge yellow schlong to you sir.

    This is just beautiful! :thumb:

    One thing that really sets this off, is the fact that you pulled off putting the radiator on top. Getting THAT to look good is the hardest thing ever!

    Congrats man! :thumb:
