    many moons ago I made an all copper water block for my 8800 ultra, this was when the ultra was old and could be picked up for £70 or so not £500+ new.

    it failed fantastically. i was only 16 or so.

    but now I've come back to making a water block and I think I've done excellent!

    just needs to be tested now!

    the patter was made using a .2mm 45 engraving bit.


    and John, how did your water block come out?

    Hi MOCNC

    You can find Washout's build log here. Made a nice job of it and it works well from the videos posted:

    Other DIY CNC build logs are here:

    Any of the above will fly through aluminium to make PC cooling blocks etc. without problems. Find something close to your liking and ask away . . .
