:ww:

how thick is your aluminium, and how deep will you mill the channels?

I want some of those too, they're too damn nice. would you be able to build some of my designs?

:D

It may be possible, however there would be limitations - so ideally i would need to see the design and i might tell you :)

i think the pic will give you all the info ;)

Will be finished start of next week !

3 barbs instead of two nearly always looks good :)

Right - one step closer to finishing the final block !

I have been busy so this is taking me longer than i expected! ...
I had to improvise slightly on this one - i did not know how to change the drill bit on the mill - so had a better idea - drilling a valley every few millimetres on the top of the block - and now that i have cut the 'channels' this looks like it will have even more surface area for contact with the h2o!!

Should be finished early next week!

(i managed to snap a pin on the far-side of the block - ouch :( )

more pics coming up!

looking good djivesp :)

Here we are - as promised - finished 6800 block !!!

At first i cracked the plexi top in two places - screwing the barbs in and screwing the thing down, so had to make another top :grum: ...

all polished up and shiny - i think it looks pretty good - gonna do leak testing now :)

Considering i used fairly basic tools - hacksaw, drill press and a tapping set - this is within anyones reach (with the exception of the laser cutter for plexi - decent hand cutting skills would have achieved similar result though anyway) - people - get making your own blocks!

And this is the first 3 barb VGA block (as far as ive seen anyway:P ) :D :D

Laters all&good lux !!!
