Case Mod - In Progress The Theory of Everything. Dec. 21st. End of the world? Have some final pics. :-)

Hope you get it sorted in time, I'm sure you will. I'm really looking forward to seeing the completed pics...oh and the best of luck for the competition

 

the waterblocks are looking fantastic !

 

Everything is looking good Angel, well except for the mishap. Paint tomorrow, sand and polish Friday, pics on Saturday and a beer on Sunday.

 

This is REAL modding. How the hell did I miss 34 pages of awesomeness?

 

Thanks! I'm happy that you think I supply that!

I used cellulose thinner... Alcohol didn't do the trick, so I decided to go all in!

Thanks man! I truly hope I make it in time, but right now I'm not worried. You guys might crusify me for my decission, but we'll see!

Thanks man! I'm glad you like them!

Well I "fixed" the mishap, and I really fell like it's not worth repainting now. You guys might feel different, but I just don't have the time to redo it.
I'll stick to non-alcoholic beer, and since Denmark is playing Germany in the European championship sunday, I'll get my quote of that!

I have no idea... Temporary blindness?

 

Small update:

Used some 1200 grit wet sand paper to see if I could rescue the paint. Then some cutting compound.

I have to say that it's good enough. I'd love to go for great, but with the time left this is fine.:



Got the res mounted finally:







That's it for now. I'm hoping the tubing shows up friday as promised. If not I'll make do with what I got for now for the photoshoot.

C ya soon guys!

 

Sweet love that res

 

this is how it look, this is for 1-7mm in and outside. (or atleast close to it)

 

Thanks man!

Thanks for the help!

 

I just came back from the workshop, it's now 9:30 pm. We spent the last 3 hours playing with the software for the drive mechanism, and everything works.



Except for the damn thing that the motor is just not powerfull enough. So I have realized that this idea is not going to work in this configuration.

This means that I will be done with the pc saturday, but not the drive mechanism.
We're going to go with a servo solution instead. That also eliminates the switches and give a cleaner look. it just sucks though...

But on the upside, I did some work on the case as well, and figured out how the tubing is going to be:





That's the story right now. I'll be back with some pictures of the build saturday. C ya guys then.

 

Can't wait!

 

Nice work on fixing the paint hiccup.

Looking excellent mate, shame about the motor not being strong enough but like you said it works so can put a stronger one in at a later time.

 

Great work as always. It's a shame that the rez is hid by the radiator looking great, hope it is finished in time for the competition.

 

Me neither!

Thanks man! I got damn lucky on that paint!

I actually have a small motor that I bought for another project some years ago, and that will pull the head off a horse without any problems!

Only problem with that is that it requires 12v, 5v won't run it.
So I have my boys on the job of seeing if it's possible!
If not, we'll probably go with a servo.

Thanks man! I think I'll be ready! I had some damn good progress today! Pictures will follow later!

 

Quick update. I'm completely beat but in good spirit!

I think 3-4 hours of work tomorrow morning should do the trick!

Just a couple of pics for now!

Who was the bright mind that decided to mount the pumps right there? With no access to the fittings... sheesh!



Getting ready for the first liquid:



Running through the system:



Cpu block. Still not done bleeding the air:



Res:





That's it for now. I'll c you guys tomorrow with the finished pics!

 

Two loops! I missed it earlier... I love the colours!

 

That block is awesome!!!

 

Looking gooooood.

 

Looking really good, the panel came out well, looks perfect again

 

This looks better every time buddy, can't wait to see the finished job now
