milling the O-ring groove.
Here is the two blocks that were made from the above process.
Lumpy channel block. (Not Tested Yet)
And the one shown above. (Tested, works good)
You can make the holes with a drill press. I used a 1/16" endmill to connect the holes. But a slim dremel blade may work. I also milled out the ends over the inlet and outlet to free up flow a little more. You can just make it pins all the way though. The pin block works better than I expected with only a single inlet and single outlet. I havn't the time to test to other one yet. I might end up sending them to pH in a month or so for real testing.

Do you have any designs like this with a blueprint for VGA/chipset ones?
And that is the alternative (just little pilars of vertical copper) if we cannot figure out how to effectively guide the heat to the copper pipes.
For the one you made without the channels, the one i linked earlier, wouldn't a dremel be bad since you want low RPM for cutting through metal and high RPM for soft materials (the dremel is high RPM). Could you do that block with only a drill press?
One thing wouldnt the indentions on the bottom of the pin block work like a golf ball with air and create a cushion/body of water that doesn't get displaced? Or is there enough turbulance? (would you have the blue prints of that design?)
