Just need the block back and time to do it. I am expecting little performance gain though.

I made it with my CNC mill but it uses the basic concept as the #Rotor blocks. Drill holes and connect them. I used 1/8" holes 1/16" apart and connected them with a 1/16" endmill. You could drill the holes with a drill press and connect them with the dremel. Wouldn't come out as perfect but that doesn't mean the performance would suffer. Sometimes inperfections make the block better.
i may or may not have access to a CNC mill, im trying to convince someone who has access to one to etch a block for me but it seems people who have access to tools are jerks about letting other people use them

i dont question your measured dT, but I just wonder how well itd do on a small die processor like an AMD. also is it wide enough that it hits the pads?
