  • Reading your posts I see that you do a lot of electronic home brew projects.
    A few years ago I wrote an app that will figure out the heat sink value you need for a given set of parameters.
    Below is a screen shot of the program. If you want to download the program go to My DropBox

  • What do you consider "inexpensive"?

    You cold get some bar stock and machine sinks with fins on them or you could get a sheet of soft aluminum and make the sinks out of that
