I'm currently seriously looking into making some coolers in the future. It wont be soon however, but I'm selling my house to get some capital to buy the tooling I need. I'm still investigating the best way to make stuff that will be as true to my one offs as possible while also being production friendly. My one off coolers are to time consuming to make, finish and repeat.

My idea is maybe milling say ten blocks channelling, with all surfacing, holes/threads, etc next to each other on a single plate of copper with set datum points. The datum points would then be used to line up water-jet cutting to cut out the block shapes.

It's a way off yet, but I'm going to try

This link JFettig gave me (thanks ) has me wanting to convert my mill, (especially as this guy has the same mill as me, but under a different brand name). I really want something more production based and all in one. Still his project is a superb job although a huge amount of work. The main site is HERE, but you really must see the MOVIE as it had me all
