A hand mill should be able to do it with someone that knows how to use it. But I doubt a dermal would work. Maybe if you used the router attachment and precisely positioned a jig on each cut. Would be a bitch without a mill though.
I could make that block on my little CNC mill. It loves plastics.  I got a few new ideas of variations of this block I am going to try in the future. Got some other things in the works now though....

Man ...you must be a F'in pro with a manual mill if you think you could mill that jet tubes in the shape of small stop signs on the bottom and remain within tolerance on EACH and every one!
I know you can make it on a fairly accurate CNC........but not everyone has the luxury that few of us have in that arena.
Personally I dont think that the elongated tubes really make one bit of difference....Id just make a solid center plate with the chamfered holes.But maybe Cathar has come to a diferent conclusion that ultimately lead to cutting the tubes that way to begin with....IMO......having the overall waterchamber after water exits from the cups, closer to the base would prove to be a good thing, versus the extra volume of it as it is now....just totally bypass the cut extrude around each jet tube
