Still trying to figure out the rest of my loop. But I think I have everything planned out. It'll probably be until later this week until I'm finished. My senior year of college is killing me right now.

Yeah, once I got to that part I was thinking why couldn't EK have just etched them into the block? It'll be easier than having us adhere them to the block.

By the way Eddy, what ever happened to this promise?

"I promise you we will start seriously to find solution to this, to provide you the standoffs for et least next coming water blocks if not for the present ones.
Options are:
- plastic standoffs that are additionally glued to the copper
- metal standoffs that are additionally glued to the copper
- full copper one-piece standoffs like XSPC and some others have it"
