It's been done. However, they supposedly aren't the quality we're looking for, and that's why we use machining. It's a lot better in quality, but costs more. These guys NEED quality, because even a minor mistake will make it not work altogether, due to being on the edge of acceptable cooling, rather than leaving a large margin, like we try to.
