How does the top look before you put it on? And can you post a picture of the holes placed out? That would be very nice!

thank you
indeed, I do not use oring, I use marine Goop, and I make sure the two mating surfaces are absolutely free of grit, dirt or oiliness, then just with an evenly smeared coating of goop, over the complete mating surface, ( only one side) I bolt the two plates together, and let dry.... in the 3 years I've been doing it like this.... not a single leak from one of my blocks....

Wannabe
Here is a screenshot of the design... I gave you the dimensions of the block, so you should have no problems in scaling to fit.... the holes are for 0,125t (1/8") drill-bits, but you need to be very accurate, the tolerance is less than 0.04mm


have fun.




only one request from you, and any others, that might find enlightenment.... you gota come post some pictures of your artwork....That is All I ask in return... Post em here, or send them to me for my online Gallery, no matter...

Maybe it's off-topic, but where can I get peltier element on the net. I'm living in the middle of nowhere so I'm curious to find where you can get them over the net (and that they ship it to Croatia)
