If the base is thin enough you don't need to deepen the channels though do you?. I though the TT was closer than the Akasa!  , but I hav'nt looked that closely so I bet you're right. I can't remember what Cathar said he thought the best ratio of Cu~H2o was, can you?. BB would know!!  ...

they are both about 3.5mm i think.
i have 2 of the tt bases on the way from a friend in the states.
i will try a 2mm base with 1mm channels first i think.

I use an old Black & Dekker 'adaptor' to convert a normal drill into a (wobbly) benchpress drill. I also have a handheld belt sander that is good enough to sand off a base to a flatness that's a good enough starting point for hand lapping...

i forgot the trust dremel and the router bench.
picked up a belt sander and a miter saw this weekend.

I'm glad you're not really bombed out about the job, it sounds like you were well ready for a change anyway. I was more concerned about whether you're married and have the resposibilties and commitments inherrant, 2.5 & a mortgage . If you have alot of pressure through comitments it can be a real body~blow. I've always steered away from to much responsability myself. I like to travel light  ...

i do have a mortgage but have paypent protection that will pay it for me while i am redundant and my girlfriend still lives at home with her family so i am not that botherd.
I was also thinking about selling my flat as i should make about £20,000 and then renting for a bit or working in the sunshine for the summer but i wouldnt like to come back to nothing.
just want to finish my notice as soon as possible so i can start work on the water block full time.
i sent the amd version to you today you should get it tomorrow.
is has a 3mm base with 1mm channels. the pipe inlet works very well and fits very nice onto 1/2inch silicon tube.
i plan to use the 1/2 inch inlet from now on instead of barbs.
