Seeing that Martin makes me think I might have to go a little bigger with my heat sinks

Every day!! I go into the shop to go to work but then my attention is diverted to where my glass is & I have to go at least touch it.

Soldering all that would not bother me a bit, I have spent countless hours build and repairing small and intricate aluminum pieces & a TIG, so soldering would be a breeze BUT I do really like the plug and play Martin has going. The ability to temp attach the boards, plug them all together & power up to see what it looks like over my tank will be sweet.

Just have to convince Martin into doing a payment play
