Hi guys,
Just picked up a bar of aluminum that's about 3/4 inch x 3/8 inch x 5 ft long at a yard sale. I was thinking I could cut some RAM sinks or VID-RAM sinks out of it, or something. I could set my table saw to cut 1/4 inch deep, and saw slots in a length of it, then chop it into smaller lengths according to use. Maybe I could cross cut it as well. But since I'll have to leave the fins fairly thick I think to avoid probs and the cut width will be around 1/8 then crosscutting might not leave much metal standing.
Anyhoo, any other ideas? got plenty of the stuff to screw around with.
