Nice Be. I like the sound of the drill with the laser marker I sure could use that.
i now have a piller drill (from argos thanks MdM)
after loads of messin with practice plastic and copper i thought i would be ready to make a near perfect jet array along with the cups in the base but i managed to miss align one row.
The piller drill with the cross vice is working very well it's just user error and lack of patients thats the problem.
on the latest version i used 2.5mm cups with 0.5mm between each of them. I tried to make the cups flat with a 2.5mm end mill but i think the chuck on the piller drill is not level as i am getting some wobbling and it makes a mess of the cups.
i have now started to use cpu burn to test the blocks it keeps a stable cpu temp unlike sandra the rises and falls in a cycle.
after some testing today i found the tube/cup block to be no better than the fin style block with a 1.5mm base and 27fins per inch.
i guess the one row i messed up is still causing parts of the base to get warm.
will try again later this week.
The lexan has not arrived BE has the pin cooler ?
