I'm looking to buy a relatively large aluminum, or copper heatsink... I'm really tight on funds, and can trade various things for it.
I'm looking for something about that size, bigger or smaller is good.
I can trade semiconductors (MOSFETS IGBTs, I got IRFP460C's...)
I also have diodes...a Mica transmitting capacitor, (same one in the junk box), 330 pF mica caps, a whole bunch of different film/polyester capacitors, MKP's, a LED backlight string, (good for lighting up stuff?)
If there's anything in specific you have in mind just say so. I've darn near ran out of money for my IH project I've been working on. I still need a water pump, too, if anyone has one to trade.

What kind of pump are you looking for? I just reclaimed a pretty large one out of a hot tub. It has a 3/8 stainless coil around the motor that the water being pumped circulates through to cool it / or heat the water ;) . It has 1-1/2" inlet and outlet though. Too much for what you needed?

3/8 tube would be wayy to small for this monster! I would have let you have it cheaper than dirt since youre a 4hv guy but this is a tad on the super mega overkill side for you if 3/8 is the target. If you have an interest anyway in having a look i will snap a pic and post it ;)

Could you use your induction heater (I'm assuming you have one) and use it to melt aluminum and get it in a sand mold? If you figure that out, you can make just about anything you want...

Magnet, I'm trying to build an induction heater, because I haven't got one. :P
