Really quick 3d model, took about 2 min to make, the only thing accurate on this are the mounting holes and the size of the chip 35mm by 35mm (bottom of the block).

I'll design it in greater detail later, also those 2 pipes are the brass fittings that I don't know the sizes from, I should be able to buy some at HomeDepot today and then model them. These DO NOT represent the actual tubing of the system only the fittings.

I'll solder the sides of the water block, 5mm to 7mm thick plates of copper with silver solder then in the middle you see all the little pipes which I'll have to solder together in there too with silver solder. Then on top there is a 5mm thick acrylic plate, which I will close off with an O-ring and some silicone paste. Anyway as you can see this model right now does not have that on.

The other image I included, 'simple.jpg' was the other idea, although this is simpler it has less surface area than my new idea ( 'top.jpg/normal.jpg' ).
