    Paint would flake off when any flexing was done to the tubing. Black tubing would be better.

    Tiny little update:

    AquaTuning delivery on the way (estimated arrival next week)
    djungelapa.se delivery on the way (estimated arrival next week)
    aluminum + steel 1.5mm thick on the way (arrives Wednesday next week)

    Time to put everything together by the end of next week :)

    color scheme decided as well: matte black, red and black sleeving on cables + green sleeving on the tubes with clear coolant.

    Stay tuned ;)

    don't know if you want a detailed list on parts on the way but you'll all get it anyway!

    Complete sleeving kit for psu + tubes
    parts for the case few 90degree 10x10mm profiles few 135degree 10x10 profiles, few metal sheaths,

    Watercooling parts list arriving from aquatuning:
    8x 10/8mm (8x1mm) screw-on fitting G1/4 90° revolvable - black nickel
    2x 10/8mm compression fitting 45° revolvable G1/4 – black nickel
    4x 13/10mm (10x1,5mm) screw-on fitting outer thread 1/4 - black nickel plated
    4x 13/10mm (10x1,5mm) straight bulkhead fitting - black nickel
    1x Arctic thermal compound MX-4 Tube 4g
    3x Cooler Master Excalibur
    2x EK Water Blocks EK-Multioption RES X2 - 400 Basic
    1x Phobya G-Changer 360
    1x Zalman Multi Fan Speed Controller ZM-MFC1 Plus black

    reason for the diffrent sized fittings is because i will be running a clear tube that is actually stretchable to 13/10 from 10/8 plus i thought it would look cool if it were thicker fittings on the outside than the inside of the case.


    best regards
