I was'nt saying the swiftech was the pinnacle, they are one of my least favorite manufacturers, but they are a perfect example of a straight through block performing on par with maze/channel type blocks...
I do think H20's hit a wall
as far as the current medium goes though, any improvements are small and seem to result from fine tuning the whole system, rather than block inovations IMO.
I don't really think there is an 'Ultimate Block' design out there, it's more of an 'ultimate block for a given system'. perhaps it should be the 'Ultimate System' we're looking for?...
That said it would in no way stop me playing around in design if I had a mill, Utabintarbo has kindly offered to make a solidworks model for me to show my basic design, hopefuly if it looks good to people someone will offer to make one up
