I'm still waiting for a reply from Conrad. I've chosen new dimensions for the milled strips to make it more of a standard size for the mainly US buyers (6.35mm or 1/4 inch wide, and 3.175mm or 1/8 inch deep). I'm checking to see if Conrad can tap 1/4 inch threads instead of metric threads. This will make it easier for those in the US to find bolts. I am also looking to provide bolts to those who wish for an extra charge. Thanks again for your patience, Conrad still doesn't have the heat sinks back in stock though....

Just add yourself to the wiki. You can pretty much disregard the closing date for now, as I won't close the group buy until I finalize things with Conrad.
Stupid question,
How do I add myself to the wiki? If I add in my name it shows underneath the structured categories. I dont want to 'experiment' and mess it up. I want (4) sinks, drilled, tapped and milled.
thanks

Just do a copy/paste.
Copy one line with existing info.
Paste it back, change the data to your needs.
Then don't forget to update the totals at the bottom.

Sorry I don't mean to sound dense, but where is the Wiki? I did not see the URL.
Thanks!

Thanks!

not to be totally impolite, are there any updates on when the earliest we might have these in our hands?

Conrad has promised me they will get to me by the end of this week. It takes them some time to get around to emailing. I have asked how soon they will be ready to ship, and I should get a response by the end of the week. Sorry for the delay, there just really isn't anything I can do on my end.

Finally received this response from Conrad last night (after asking how soon the heat sinks can be shipped off):
"This might be a problem - tooling for the MF35's has been found to be unservicable (severe cracking due to thermal cycling) and a new casting die is currently being made. Unfortunately this will cause a delay in supply to the first week of June."
This is significantly longer than I would like to wait, so I will look at other options once again...

I still think ComAir Thermaflow looks good on paper.
That being said, I am doing the Surplus angle now, and will likely bail out of this. So my 4x is quite conditional. I will update Wiki if needed.
My projects are moving slow as well, but no heatsinks with Pass Amps is a show stopper to.

I am okay to wait a bit. I plan on doing the construction sometime on the fall.
I like to the ide of having all my sinks the same. I already have a nice set from Conrad so I can wait.
Maybe the F5 will be ready for a group buy by then
