That is definitely a neat video. I didn't see it until just now though. Keep up the good work.

May i ask why there is a line between each of the paths? I thought at firat this was your lapping/polishing tool.

I guess no one thought the video was as cool as I did 
 
Oh well.  First copper pics of the Micro chipset due out today.  


Video was very cool.  You should show a camera angle from back further so people who don't understand that the XY table is moving can see what you mean.  I don't personally do any machining, but am constantly in machine shops due to my profession.  There is something hypnotic about watching materials get milled via CNC.  Especially the 5 axis machines.  Those things are mind numbingly cool in terms of what they can do.  CNC lathes are really cool to watch as well.
 
I've played around on some Bridgeport mills, but no one here would want me cutting their waterblocks....LOL

I got a good laugh out of the auto focus in the beginning   Very cool, keep em coming!  Your blocks have my regs hitting only 37C max so far, nooooiiiiice!  I was concerned they were going to explode from running over 2V on air lol.

The line is just the tool path.  An overlap so to speak.  After the cutting, I lapped the entire plate.
 
 Since I don't have access to a board, I am going to be more aggressive with the backside to make sure it doesn't make contact with anything.  I may have some time to work on that tomorrow.  Not sure.

Slamming 540W through the CPU alone, vreg didn't go above 36C.

Backsides of the Micro block are finished:

 

 

 
A side by side comparison to the FTW/Classified chipset:

 
 
 
I know the tool paths look crazy, but they feel smooth as glass.  A quick bead blast and gun coat and they will look incredible.
