I never thought I'd be able to get plans for a beer dispenser with this
post, but I think I'll try it. I REALLY need it to cool my poor little guys. ![]() "David Zopf" wrote in message . .. "Ali Day" wrote in message ... If you have the time, and inclination, this might be a fun project for you. I have a similar project on my list of things to do, involving a small freezer off ebay, drill two holes through the top, coil tubing inside the freezer, pack freezer full of stuff, ice cube bags possibly, attach a pump to a thermic switch, and off you go, pump the water through the freezer to cool it down. Not very energy efficient but still more so than the chiller units you can buy for aquariums, and a damn sight cheaper. So long as the wife can handle a beer cooler in the living room ... Drill a third hole to fit a tap in it, then? (I can hear the arguments now, "honest honey, its for the health of the fish... they _need_ it." :-) DZ AW |
