    Nice. They remind me of Swiftech's aircooling.

    You should run some tests to compare it to your other blocks.

    Very Nice.

    Now it also reminds me of Swiftech's watercooling blocks.

    I like the design idea, but I would be a little worried of water leaking out the seams between the pieces of lucite and between the copper base and the lucite. Are you planning on designing some gaskets into that?

    Very nice, will be interesting to see how this block performs vs your other design.

    I'd bet on this one, but still interesting to see how both do.

    Nice to see someone doing block designs.

    looks good, but i dont think this would be very good for a high pressure loop or anything, i think some o-rings are defiently needed. maybe a peice of thin rubber above the pins would keep water from flowing above them and improve temps.

    since it is a custom job.. it will be more prone to leak due to uneven surface.... i say use liquid gasket instead... that should fill up all lines

    Doesn't have to be uneven because it's a custom job, depends how you made it.. You could polish the plexi to be absolutely even..
