Thanks for the post NeoMoses. Perfect timing too. I might start cutting the actual fins tommorrow (wed.) or mon.

But after seeing your block I have a few questions about it:
1) How does the in-flow and out-flow work w/ such a wide finned area?
2) Did you use a slitting saw? If so the "corners" of your channels mush be curved instead of square corners. More info on that please.
3) And like OTMOPO3OK asked: how thick is the base? I am planning on 1/16".

My block will have 9 fins (1/32 channels, 1/32+ fins), about 1" long, but HOPEFULLY .375" tall. Do you think I'll be able to cut that deep w/out the fins bending on me too much?

Nice purple die also.
