This should then mean that water passing be the copper closest to the core would have full velocity, without stagnation.

There is another way to go with slopes, and that is if each slit has its own slope, but the startpoint would be offcet so that there would be no buildup of copper above the core. This way each other slit-slope would be in one direction. A 2 way output would be used, just like the RBX.

I'll see if I can figure out how to use sketchup, then I guess I could better "show" my idea!

Sounds like it will work. Keeping in mind that its good to have a violent turbulence at the core. On that note. Build the sucker already!
