jaydee:

Seeing the pic now reveals a flaw though. Since water cannot hit the base 'deep enough'. In other words, in your design copper base plate thickness is 6.35mm. It should be around 2-4mm max. One way would be to 'hollow' up the copper plate then drill and stick up copper wires.

I would also suggest 2.5mm thick cu wire as one can then drill more holes with more 'fins' stuck in. 2.5mm is easy to work with and stiff as well.

I see you have made a groove for o ring? How?

I am thinking of making one similar block with slight modification. How would one cut out plexi in middle?

jaydee, Nicely done...
