Ps : I hope there is nothing wrong with this ...technicolor tie-wraps , because I ran out of valium today...

Nothing broken today...
Hehe.
But you sowed doubt in my mind about the method used to thermal coupling the Zistors.
Would Schrumpfschlauch/Heat-shrink tubing/Krimpkous (thats for frère Jacques) instead of tie-Wrap be a better solution?

No, it would not offer any tension once just around 45C, cause it turns soft at that temperature.
Zip ties or metal is the way to go.

I have tried on many occasions to tap sinks and always ended up drilling right thru cos I screwed up(no pun) and using a nut and bolt.
Is there a dark held mason's secret to this..If so could some kind soul please explain the tricks. I have a pillar drill and a set of metric taps(only one for each size tap).

what's point ?
in through hole you make or in bigger dia hole ,than you need ?
through hole is a must - in 90% of situations , and exact dia for tap is easy to find ;
trick is in steady , slow drilling , lubricating is a must ( WD40 is handy , even if I use some more esoteric stuff - and you don't wanna know that's in fact nothing else than goat fat).
tapping - again lubricating is must ;
half turn right , then half turn back ........
coffee is obligatory , too .......
and no hurry
sounds easy ?

For tapping in soft material like Al, I now prefer to use Hand tapping tool as I ended having must less broken tap than with drilling machines. I found that, this way, it is so much easier to control.
Lubrification with common lamp-oil (cheap) but I am not a profi.
For drilling, the opposite. I prefer pillar drill (broken drill on ZenMods pic is the result of free hand drilling on kitchen table, smoking and drinking a beer at the same time)
