Then I sprayed some "3M Super 77 Spray Adhesive" on the plate copper and and, viola, easy to follow lines. You could, after gluing on the templates, score the lines to make it visible even if you rub the paper off.
Fyber,

This is basically the mill I have. Yes, I own it. I purchased it about 4 years ago.

"Invest in a good tool and it will last a lifetime" - My Grandfather (Gramps) who taught me to work with wood when I was 4 years old.

Keep in mind if you buy a milling machine of this type, you will invest another $300 to $500 or more on milling tool accessories. (i.e. - rotary table, endmills, collets, hand tools, calipers, machine grade T-squares, etc.)

I bought it because I can use it for other things than just computer water blocks. I just enjoy working with my hands as I don't have much opportunity to do so where I work.

I finished the other block just like the one I did above... had to have a pair. They are in the oven as we speak. It just got "pre-heated" so I'm going to go and flow some solder on it.

Pictures to follow later.
