Re: Silly Q on home made chiller, improving cameraman's design
After having an anodizing set up for a few years now I am going to finally set up a chiller this coming summer. Don't forget that if you used aluminum tubing that it will not anodize during a run. As long as you don't have the positive power lead to it. Also if you use aluminum tubing you can use it as your cathode and kill two birds with one stone! My plans are to use a coil of small tubing wrapping the tubing into 3 or 4 inch coils. I would dare to think a one foot long piece of 3 or 4" tight coils would be plenty to cool a tank pretty good sized. It also would make it easy to remove at the end of the day. Hang it off the side of your tank and run air under it to circulate your acid. It would take a long long time for the acid at the strenghts we use it to eat through the aluminum tubing. Just my 2cents.
