It took me a weekend. I tend to get sucked in when I do things like this
and I have some experience, so I probably finished on the fast end of
the spectrum. I remember finishing late afternoon on Sunday.

I also remember driving to the hardware store to get a wire brush tool
for my Dremel. I would (and have repeatedly :) ) suggest using that to
remove the anodizing from the heat sink in just the places necessary.
The Emery cloth did me no good.
