Glen. I buy copper sheet from here, but it is also available on ebay - 1.2mm is just right, with a layer of clear packing tape on the pcb side.

You will need a heatsink in the order of 120w to get a decent differential.

I don't know where the temperature sensor is located. I don't reference it because it doesn't tell you anything useful - no relation to the actual sensor temperature - which is true for the 1000D. Whether that is true for later models, I don't know. The closest estimate of sensor temperature is the cold finger.
