will probably be very similar to the one I made for the R300 water-cooling project.
Blade Runner?...by any chance, is your name John?
(If it is then you'll understand the following comment, if not then just trickle over to the next posting )

I read about that review about a month ago and emailed the person who designed and created that beast of a Radeon cooler and asked if they would be willing to mill one for me. I believe that the summary of the reply was that the work envolved in doing so would be rather expensive and time consuming for him to do...etc, etc.

That is some nice work
