i call it, Biohazard, because the drill holes make a triangular pattern they way they are. here are some pics of the parts i've made so far. first off, here is a 2x2x.125 inch copper with 1mm deep holes made with a power hand drill. then there is the 1/4" piece of plexi for the main chamber. then plexi plate of 1/8" that makes the water jets from the inlet. and then just the top cover:

side view of the layers:

here is a view through the inlet the way it will sit:

everything is gonna be cut into squares/rectangles tomorrow, and when i get some plastic barbs from home depot, glued together. little dots on the outside of plexi are for the monuting bolts, and the thick dots are for screws that hold the block together, but im thinking more and more about just glueing it all. the copper is off center, but the inlet is directly over the core, and the copper still hits all 4 of the round squishy things on the cpu. please post any comments/suggestions. i am new to this, as is evident by my dremel skills. i've made one block so far by taking a 2x2 piece of copper and JB welding it to a PVC endcap cup. works pretty good, but not the more efficent thing ever, clearly. here is a pic:
