i think it will flow good it looks pretty good
could you fill in the bottom of the HS so you could get more surface contact?

Pretty sure that section that appears to be sticking out the the base was a mistake made when drawing it if that's what you're talking about.

Spawn is correct. I added the fillet in the model to show the core assembly protruding thru the base on to the chip. I accually did add the fillet to the base and then it was filled in with a silver braze metal. After that I mill the bottom to be flat, and lap it to give me the surface finish I am looking for.

So far this is my 7th block. I don't know how well this will perform until I install it into my system and give it a good test run. Yes this one is higher in copper then the last 6 that I have made. But there is a minor alteration that I made to the design that isn't shown in the models. ( Its there just can't notice it.) the holes are not straight in. There at an 8 degree angle to the back plate. Took some advice.

WOW !
im impressed ! very good one.
Im waiting the result !
I hope to have some screen shots with my results by the weekend, I have some other small mods to make on my case before I can install it. Between Spawn and Bubblehead's projects I am having to make some good mods just to keep up.

Thanks for responding to that. Thanks for the compliment, the face plate here is a generic one that I got from someone. Now it looks cool but the most important thing is that all the holes along the outer edge fit different socket types. So I have the hole patterns to a lot of different socket types, and next time I send you something I will include a mounting bracket that I can make on my CNC at work. LOL. make things a bit easier.

I use heavier material for now just due to the ease of assembly. I could make it much thinner and lighter if I was going to mass produce them, but since these are one time wonders then I just go with a design that will yield the least amount of scrap.

never mind lol
keep up the good work
keep up the good work
Actually i think that block will perform pretty darn well since it will get to touch the water on 3 walls
It also looks like the water will spin around on the outer wall
As usual very impressive craftmanship and design and as usual i love these theads with cadmans designs

Looks good! Btw, how thick is the base? Looks like 1/4". Waiting for results
(PS: Do you have a CNC?)

yeah the base is 1/4" on this one. I have used 1/8" on the blocks before it. I just wanted to try 1/4 to see if there is any difference. Yes I do have a CNC I could use but this one was made on a Manuel lathe.
