well, apart from the dimples.
Here's the render I did :
The finished block ( I lost the pic of the inside, will try and find it though )
It performs very well, although it benefits very much from a powerful pump, I use an Eheim 1260 ( 2200 l/h ) I get temps about 4 degrees higher than a WW.
To make the pins, try getting some copper roofing nails and trimming them down to about 15mm, and trimming the heads to pack them closer. I managed to get about 50 pins into my block, about 10 over the core.
I fluxed the pins, balanced them in place and soldered them on. I reckon you could possibly drop another degree if you didn't have the solder join between the copper base and the pins.
jeezzzus. What did you use to make the 3d pic? I dont know why, but my pics are coming out like crap compared to that!
