A little update as I've been a bit tied up with RL stuff recently
I stupidly thought the frontside block was hard to make.......... piece of cake compared to the backside one
The backside block shape milled with channelling and retention holes
Using the frontside block bolted to the backside blocks milled shape, to drill the four fluid transfer area retention holes to match and line up correctly.
Surface milling the ram contact area of the otherside of the backside block, about 3.5mm more to go.......
