About bp thickness, it varies between 3 and 4 mm. I found that a good tradeoff between thin bp and heat spreading over the base.

, I opted for a theorist approach in mine and then test run different base configurations, it’s very easy to exchange the copper discs.
I’m almost done with my block, hope this week end have some time to make the clip
. In the meantime here’s how I’m going to merge the four outlets:
