Anyway, why does the NB block need to be redone? I cant see a visible mistake.

2 things. One) I didn't get the pattern square in the base so I have to shave off a little and scrap the O-ring and would have used silicone instead, but that brings me to Two) The mounting holes are backwards.
I decided to re-do it right after that but...
I just remilled a sweet looking one with O-ring groove and all but when I was tapping the hole I slipped, broke the tap, and sliced my finger to the bone right on top of the nuckle with the jagged end of the broken tap. So now I got a sweet NB block with a broken tap that is to small to be drilled out.
So that is #2 in the scrap pile. I did however complete the GPU block and it looks good. In fact it is so overkill it should cool a CPU better than the CPU block I made.
Bah. Well I might do another NB block if I get around to it but I am running out of time. I only got a few more hours of mill time up here and I think that will be spent finishing King Pin #2. I don't even need a NB block for that system anyway being it isn't going to be OC'ed much. I might do one anyway.... King Pin #2 look good. If I get a good scanner pic I will start a new thread tonight. If not I will start it when I get home Sunday. I think #Rotor will like it.
