I have now received the heatsinks. They sure look cool! I attached a photo showing a quick mockup of how I intend to build my Aleph J.
I can't tell if they were machined or extruded since I have no clue what look out for.
I have not yet looked at all heatsinks, as they came in four separate boxes, and I have only opened one box so far. They did not round the fins, but I wouldn't call them "lethal". But Jeff is right that the edges of the fins (and some other details) or not perfectly identical to my drawing. Also, two heatsinks had small dents on the edges. I can't tell if this happened in the factory, or during shipping. I asked the factory about this; let's see what they say.

I am planning to make a Babelfish J.
In the meantime I figured out from the Chinese factory that the heatsinks were machined, although they indicated an extrusion on the quote. I am discussing about the issue with the dents on some of the heatsinks with the factory. Let's see how this works out -- keep your fingers crossed!

You know you want some, 2pico....
I know.
I want them real bad.
Hahahaha
^Yep. The new batch should be closer to the drawing in the first post. I believe I prefer the looks of this. Which one do you prefer?
Carsten, 2 picDumbs, anyone: are you interested in either the old or the new batch?
Once I have the second batch in my hands I will come back with better photos and a suggestion about the pricing.
