Case Mod - In Progress Project : Infinity CM Stacker (Reservoir 100% complete)

So far.. frickin' awesome.
Just read the whole 14 pages and I'm well impressed.
Keep up the good work ^_^

 

I THINK if both the res tube and top are PET, (I know the coke top is PET,) You can fuse them together with acetone.
I'm worried that it won't be able to handle the pressure if you leave the loop sealed. The material is really flexible.
I'd hate to see such an awesome rig get wet.

 

Na all should be ok, coz ive made a custom res before out of perspex sheet, which was a square one, worked very well, no leaks, also i will be using poxy to glue it on, the bottom and top will have thick perspex. which will go into the tube and then glued. will be perfectly safe.

 

I can't wait to see how you pull that idea off.

 

Threw all your up's & down's, I think this project is & will turn out awesome when completed. also your design, fabrication, & execution have been top notch from the start. hope to see an update soon.

 

Good to see the project still rolling and evolving DoOb's

 

Thanks Colossous cant let you down , or anyone for that matter, things will take shape even if it takes longer than expected.

Just with work and not physically being able to go to the places to get my stuff, some things will take longer to get.

Thanks guys

 

Alrighty, so im off today, took a day off, My res is almost done here is some progress so far....

After being up an down twice to E.I.S coz i decided that two elbows would be better than a straight and an elbow.

Here's some progress.........












Will have a finished update later today, have to go to Durban plastics now to get some thick Perspex for the top and the base.

DoOb's

 

That turned out really well. I can't wait to see the top attached. I am really looking forward to trying to make my own res one day.

 

Alrighty, finished my Res,

Here's the 15mm thick perspex stuck into the bottom.....




Then the top piece got made....and then stuck together



Then stuck on the filler top....




Glued around the fittings for 100% leak proof.




Then a final pic from the top of the finished Res




Thats it.... one complete Made Reservoir

DoOb's :wink: :wink:

 

Awesome Doobs! Thats looking good man. So does it leak?

 

Never leak bru, bluff guys do things properly, no need to even test, put it straight in and use it,,,, hehehe

 

Looks fantastic. Looks like a new design drink bottle haha.

 

Just some things i did today.

Got brackets for my Reservoir

Then i thought heck let me put my case together......couple hours later like NOW.... pc is in.

Things that still need to be done , are

Custom Design vinyl Cuts for the Case inside and out
Put the Radiator Grills
Lighting
Spray Paint/Vinyl
Gfx Card & Ram Coolers (Custom made Brackets for each to cool the Gfx card ramsinks and then the my Memory. Dont want those things getting hott now do we.
Figure out the airflow.
Do DVDrom drive cover. Needs some attention.
Purchase better LED fans (UV Green)

Anyway here are some pics

Bought these Brackets for my Res, work very well, and nice and tight









Until my next update....keep modding

 

Woot very nice. man I'm happy that you bring us an update. Thanks and keep modding. Don't go sleep and leave us waiting for you

 

Thanks very much CK, it has been a while hasnt it, i had a day off today, so i got my Res into my case. Im almost there.

 

Well done Buddy. I Respect people like you that don't lose hope and Keep it going. And the most important don't waste holiday time and MOD their computer. I respect you buddy.

 

The res looks great mounted, as does the rest of the case.

 

Looking really cool DoOb's, have you decided if you're going to polish it or any kind of finish yet ?

 

Im thinking vinyl colours inside for scratch purposes(panel covers) Inside of chassis will be sprayed with undercoat and then white., and then paint on the outside. Which will be silver black and green.

Thanks Colossous

I've got a bit of a problem though, if i wanna take my pc out ive gotta drain the system, so the only way which i figure to do this is to put a dump valve or port at the bottom of the reservoir coz i cant get anything out without draining the system, Also piping will be re routed a lil hopefully, coz i dont like that T junction . i wanna get another block for my cpu with only two port's and not 3.

Then where there hole is where to pump pumps into the cpu block i want to lower that hole. will cover the other one up by making a designed piece of aluminum and then perspex piece.

Yea , then the wiring need to sort my powersupply out. have more molex connectors and cut the SATA ones off coz ive got extension ones instead.

sooo alot of tweaks in this troublesome case need to be done. hehe
