Has anyone used a counterflow plate heat exchanger and running hose water to cool the coolant? I brew beers and believe a small one could be had for around 75$. Then I would just need a motorized pump. The only downside would be wasted ground water unless a second pump was used.

Tig Cooler
Here is a cooler I built using a carbonizer.
I keep the SS tank and added a fan to the motor shaft for cooling.
I used quick disconnect fittings so I can disconnect the torch for storage of both.
The radiator is from an auto AC unit with a shroud to aid cooling.
