Cheers I have a plan similar to that...copper strips are to expensive here at the moment so I'm going to use a block of PC CPU heat sinks.

I weld stainless food grade pipe and was going to use the same surface tacking method, that I use for pipe and then stitch it up...it's worked on my test piece I've done, on .9mm .7mm . It ended up only needing minimal dolly work to smooth...

I'm only fretting because it's a first for me to have so many pieces and curves and long welds on stainless, a material I normally don't use as it work hardens so easily...
I think If I pull it off, it'll be a great show piece for my skills...I've been promised a Motorcycle build contract by the customer if it does and that will probably be my first project when I get to Australia next month.
