This should help:

http://xjinn.procooling.com/block%20pics/

tapping all those lil holes...lol.

What I personally heard Joe say about that block was it was not nearly as dependent upon flow rate as other blocks.

I would think that it would be a lot easier to make a square block that is about the size of the socket. The heat doesn't spread all that well to the edges of the block anyway, and it would make the drill press more feasible. Then you could just make a holddown for the top. Not sure how easy it would be to get that on a CPU directly though; TEC block?

Speaking of interesting blocks, I keep going to http://3rotor.dns2go.com/ and looking at those blocks that ole #rotor cooks up. When I get my testbed running (hahaha) that will be the first block I buy.
