ice blocks for Cool Surge
I have 2 Cool Surge cooler/heaters that I think I bought in 2009. I need some
new 3 1/2 x 5 1/2" x 1" ice blocks. Where can I get them? -- for full context, visit https://www.homeownershub.com/mainte...e-1132713-.htm |

First, construct a watertight box whose inner dimensions are 3.5" x 5.5" x 1". Marine-grade plywood should suffice; caulk the seams. Fill with water and freeze. Cindy Hamilton |

She needs 3 1/2 x 5 1/2, not 3.5 x 5.5. You need a special ruler to make that. |

Dang, you caught me. I want the U.S. to switch to the metric system. Cindy Hamilton We did that in 1975. Much stuff is still in inches because we export so my to Liberia and Myanmarr and they don't have metric rulers. Jokes aside, I see more and more metric as we do more world trade and off shore manufacturing. i remember when the local shop could not fix your Volkswagen because they did not have the right tools. . |

It's much simpler, without the need to deal with multiple unrelated units for the same thing (like inches, feet, yards, rods, miles, etc...). Also, some people wouldn't refuse to accept how simple it is. -- Mark Lloyd http://notstupid.us/ "Shell to DOS... Come in DOS, this is Shell calling, do you copy?" |
