    The coil is in that foam part. I tore apart a kent wood watercooler and I was happy with what I found. Took maybe 10 minutes as it was my first one. Had nice copper tubes. Copper alum radiator and a small compressor which I cut open later on. The surrounding was all plastic though. Alot of plastic.

    Yes, the styrofoam just peels off.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    to date, I have only scrapped one of these. The styrofoam was glued to the coil. Helluva mess
