I don't. Maybe #Rotor has some.

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?

#Rotor uses a dremel. I never tried myself. Always had my mill for those little chores. You could do all but the O-ring groove and the ends of the channel with a drill press. You will have to figure a way to connect the holes. You can get a cross sliding vise and an endmill maybe.

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?)

It adds water to copper surface area. It is very shollow and with the pressure of the system I think it doesn't hurt anything. Probably will not be measurable. Also if you cut deep enough you can cut through it. My 1/16" endmill would not go any deeper so I couldn't completely mill through the holes. I did however with the Channel block. I am actually expecting the channel block to work "better" than the pin block.
All I have is a ACAD drawing of tool paths. I don't have a detailed drawing as I don't need one to mill it. Just a bunch of 1/8" holes 1/16" apart from each other on my blocks.
