Thanks guys, my DIY skills are quiet modest really, just have to do plenty of research like right here on IIS and the net and source the bits and pieces you need. Still waiting for some Artic silver to arrive and a poly box for the control box and the power supply to run it all.

As for the fan, never had a problem with vibration at all. I have a simple peltier and heatsink/fan that I have attached to the bottom of my cameras since I had my 300D to keep it a bit cool in summer and has never affected the image what so ever. Have higher speed fans to move more CFM but opted for a quieter one which is also thin. Seems to do the job.

Just wieghed the cooler assembly and comes in at 460 grams.
Glad I didn`t use a copper heatsink! even though I reckon it would make a difference.
Shall post some more pics as I get closer to finishing it off.
