hi cathar welcome to bodgers corner.

Do you have any formulars for working out the best base plate thicknes and fin height with the fins i have on these bases ?
if i remember correctly the fins are .5mm thick with 1.5mm gap. The base plate is 3.5mm before i made any changes.

Hope you dont think i am trying to copy ww. I dont have any access to mills and have to use materials i can find and the akasa base is working very well for me at the moment.

Do you have access to an heat sensitive camera you could use that to gauge how the heat is spearding from one dimple to another. My guess would be you want the cooling effect of each dimple slightly overlapping all others around it to maximise cooling with the optimal number of jets / dimples.
Just a thought

i am not worthy
