Yes, looks like it is back to the drawing board. I only have 1/8" from the channel to the outside edge og the block which isn't enough for an O ring or silicone. I will have to narrow up the channels to 3/8". Then my surface area and flow will decrease. probably raise temps some. I will go look for some proper sized O rings today and mill out a 3/8" channel block and see if I can work it out. I always wanted my tops to be removable anyway.
