Looks fine. Are you making this soon?
If I'm lucky the first copper two copper bases will be done today

looks good, the only thing that doesnt feel ok, is the sealing around the lower mounting rod in the last pic.
I know - I was banging my head against the wall for that... :shrug: . I wanted to make the cannel crossection 128 sq. mm across the whole block. So I had to widen the whole channel there a bit and put some "island" where the mounting hole is. I'm also thinking that on the finished block, the island will be in water-drop shaped, that way I will really have minimum water resistance.

could he have issues with cracking the poly? seems like there would be alot of pressure especially in the middle of the front side, with the O ring pushing up with no clamping force in the center
Well I was thinking of that too and I'm still deciding between completely removing the center O-ring or putting a screw at the end of the O-ring.

Wow, that looks really nice. What is the material that joins the two halves and what is used to seal those junctions?
Between copper and polycarbonate is the O-ring, the piece between both blocks will probably be made of policarbonate. Self-understanding that there is also O-ring sealant on both sides of that piece.
