just checked what i'd been using, turns out it's a 3/4" one, about 19mm.aye - that or better yet a slightly wider one would be ideal.
i suspect i need to sharpen it, i'd used to to flatten a few sq ft of end grain of elm.

I got a broken cooler box off adverts for a tenner.
my theory being either i can fix it or it's still a really well insulated box and it'll do for lugging cans about the place now and again.
anywhoo I went CSI on it this evening.
the whole thing is a 12v fan, a peltier module with a heat sink either side and a little almost analog logic board.
The fan is working fine of 12v and i'm kinda assuming the module is working fine because they supposedly do.
The logic board isn't really doing fuck all, though the relay can be activated with jumpers.
I see three options.
A: Just stick a switch on it so it's either fans+module or dead.
B: build a new logic board with some arduino leftovers so it self regulates (this is kinda what it is already)
C: try and find the logic board on ebay.
Typing them out is making me biased towards A.
I was gonna go on ebay to get a switch but today was also the day i was clearing out another space where my arduino stuff was.
So an arduino nano spec sheet says it'll run on 12v, I have a few temp sensors in the box and a dual relay breakout.
So looking at an upgrade / sidegrade to this cooler box now. FSAI are talking about 0-5 degrees, and some beer website is saying about 4 for beers, so 4 degrees target...
If I fail i can always put a dumb switch on it like. Or no switch.
I'm glad you had the stones to do this
