Excellent, put me down for one

Not a problem.  

I will certainly post the machine pictures! I will post pictures throughout the entire process. Due to the size of this block i will be able to make a bunch at a time. The bottom will start off life as a 1/2" thick solid chunk of Cu110 copper (99.9% pure) and will be extruded, with an acetal copolymer top (or delrin, copper or whatever) the standard will be black delrin since I get that stuff in "bulk" so to speak.

Still have to pick up a fixture plate for the manufacturing process. Aluminum or steel...that is the question...

Yes, its great news. While having 3d models help, there is no substitute for the real thing. I have the first chunk of copper ordered. I will bang out an aluminum prototype, calculate some rough pricing, and start seeing who is seriously interested.

I want one for sure NATE!   This will be my first liquid cool build.  I figure if I can going to spend a few hundred dollars in parts I may as well do it right (as I enjoy trying to overclock as far as possible).    Plus I will be using a Brass car rad (it's free, clean, huge and neat!) so it would be silly to not buy this mobo block from you

I have a vacation planned for early to mid September, so I do not know if I can afford to buy one before Oct.  It depends how much I spend while I am away.    BUT I AM DEFINITELY BUYING ONE!  Please    
 
I'm new here and I signed up on the forum after buying a DARK mobo (after fantasizing about it for some long months).

Welcome to the forums! I will take care of you.

Im thinking of trying a copper topped option. Would anyone be interested, or just Delrin?

I haven't said this before, but I'm going to say it now because I've seen your waterblocks in past threads.
This is a very cool thing that you do.  If the day comes to where I need a custom waterblock, I think I know who to ask first. ;)

I'd be happy with the Delrin top, I will nickle plate the base and probably engrave the
Delrin top and paint fill the text red to match the DARK's IO cover plate.
Although, having a full nickle plated block would be sweet too but if i engrave
the top, the red text wouldn't stand out on the nickle as much as it would on the
black Delrin.
I think the Black Delrin would match the rest of the board better as well.
Yep, just plain Delrin for me thx nateman.
