So i was bored and decided to make a cooler for my drinks. I went online and saw this but at 40$ that was way too much. I realized how easy it would be to make one my self even though i have no experience with tecs. So i went on ebay and got this this (first ebay purchase ) I forgot to take pics when mounting it to the heatsink but all i did was spread some as5 and put some rubber cement along the edge of the tec. Next i wired the tec to the 12v molex. I also had no coldplate so i used the bottom of a altoids tin. It works suprisingly well ice forms on the bottom in seconds. Im actually using water as the tim between the tec and the tin. Ill use as5 and some glue later but the water works great as a tim and glue whem it freezes.
The heatsink
