I was wondering about that myself. You probably need to look at the relation between the surface tension at the copper/water interface and the length of the channel in relation to that. I wish I knew something more about fluid flow mechanics but I don't. I bet it's not a very difficult problem though, just a question of balancing the overall resistance to flow for each channel to be the same.
