Nate... That face mill! Holy **** that's clean. Now that is some cooling porn right there?

Is there anyway you can 'refinish' my VRM block using that face mill also?

Your Vreg block doesn't look much different then that... but I am sure I could be persuaded ;)
 
More pr0n:

Sandblasted goodness.
 
edges coated and hanging in the oven to cure:


 
its 1am... calling it quits for the day.  I can barely see strait anymore between the cooking paint vapors, and inhalation of the glass beads to clean the blocks.  Killer headache!
 
More pics tomorrow as the finishing process continues.

OK, here is my mock up of the engraving, positioned taking into account the PCI-E slot locations to make the engraving most visible.
Acesi7, let me know what you think
 

 
The proportions of this 'E' logo look different to the one on the original Heatsink, I can fix that, also
I may outline it just slightly so it looks a bit chunkier.
 
EDIT:
How about this? Matched the 'E' to the same angle as the original Heatsink and made it proportional & chunkier ;-)

 
 

Mate that's amazing. I love it!
 
Can't wait to get my 2 of a kind Nateman_doo + IamSneaky blocks!
 
Really going to finish of my design.
 
Might have some more work for you soon. But I'll discuss that with you later. :)

What kind of bit are you using, and how deep are you going?
 
Looks good! Shame it will be hidden by the video cards though

I'll be using just a standard D cutter with a slight angle, probably be between 1 and 1.5mm deep
(0.04 - 0.06 of an inch) but I will look at the block and determine the best depth when I see it.
With Epoxy filling around 1-2mm depth is best as the epoxy being smooth and high gloss, it gives better visual depth.
Probably need to be much shallower for the smaller text though.
Yeah, for tri and quad SLI it will barely be visible but I will only have 2 cards so about the bottom two thirds should be visible.

@ Nate
Lookin good man!  Can't wait for mine.
 
@Sneaky
That is some nice engraving, looking forward to seeing the finished product.

One I would like to have

I think the E alone would look much cleaner and nicer as the engraving , you know more skeek!

Batch number 2... how do you do?
