Default Mounting horizontal radiator vertically... is it possible?

I might just have got it. Why not make a rad from pipes like the
first rads were done? They had a row of many vertical pipes, plumbed
together along the top to the outlet at one end, and plumbed together
along the bottom to the inlet pipe. Simple, characterful, and dust
gathering, but a duster should clean it up pretty quickly.

I had considered this... and what stopped me was the thought of the
monster I might inadvertantly create...


Hopefully all you'd be doing is soldering, not using the high
voltage machine.

There are pics of early rads online if you want to see what they look
like. Try
