@ Coolmeister: That's the thing I was thinking of, but I couldn't remember the link. Thanks for finding it! @Rancidflannel: Like I said: an actuator. Whichever way you go, don't forget the gas filled lifting pistons to counterbalance the weight of the case (a small one in each corner). It will put less strain on the motor and make the whole thing move more smoothly and quietly. You can find small pistons suiting your requirement easily; they use them for instance in kitchen wall cabinet doors (the ones that open upwards).
OK, update on my drawings This is will be a good solution, I hope. A small window in the inner wall, 4 * 4 cm. (less if possible). Where can i get a wheel like this (Is it called wheel, dunno the word so its difficult to use google?)? And the wheel should be enable to turn around 360 deg.(If I will need a 4 point lift up)
Watercooling Watercooling list: CPU block NB block GBP block Pump (I guess Ehiem 600 l/t will be enough) Waterres (Water tank Radiator (to use with two 120mm fans) Where can I get a set with a dobble 120mm fan, can`t find it. But my main question is where is the best place on the web to buy used water set/parts (UK) And where is it cheapest? And how is the rules, if u buy something in the US from UK (taxas, delivery time)?
well.. since u have a water cooling system in there already... how about making some hydraulic actuators (thats hydraulic, not hydrolic). that is, use the presure from ur water-pump to raise the system, would proabably work, and all u need is the actuators and a waterswitch (which could be mechanical). just a thought.
i tore the motor out a one of those big box fans, the white ones that are loud as h3ll. the motor was really quiet without the fan on it and seems pretty strong, that is a cheap motor. though it is ac
Modtheplanet It will be to little power with a fan motor. Just try to stop it with your finger.... I need 4 kg.
ok put your finger in a box fan and see what it does... this is the kind of fan that i am talking about... had a 20" blade on it, probably blew about 700cfm guessing. you can buy a new one at walmart for like 20bucks, or find a old one somewhere.
Sorry. That can be an idea, do u know how much it can lift? AC what does that meen? Is it a 240 V fan or 12-24V? PS! Your picture doesn`t work, you have to change permissions on the file.
well the AC (wall plug) voltage in the USA is 120 but i am sure they make them in 240 there. just an idea
Just another question in my thread How can I put a Avatar under my Forum nick? When im in User Cp and Edit avator, can `t find where to put the lin k for my picture.
Update Big picture Anyone know of any companies that do the cutting cheap (need waterjet cutting, because its aluminium)
New pushing system. I have now changed my mind, I`ll go for an Electrical Linear Actuator. Its used to puch up doors etc. 160-250 $ ohhh I`ll get broke :-| Question, are there any webshops that sells a water res. for watercoooling, that have a window that uses 2 * 5,25" bay.
I now hope my old computer will RIP. After uninnstalling the CPU cooler, to have the fan and sink rinsed. The CPU and motherboard went to bed, and to never wake up again. So after this set back, Im know even a more poor student then earlier this year. New components: - AMD 64 3200+ - Twinmos 512mb PC3200 *2 (1024 RAM) - MSI K8T Neo FSR2R - Sapphire Radeon 9600XT 128mb - Enermax 460W Silent twin fan PSU 3DMark03 : 3940 (with DC++ running with 250k/s download, and no overklokking or tuning) But now I`m ready to continue my project, after three weeks without computer, (though I have a PowerMac Laptop) Anyone know of a cheap WaterJet cutter in the UK. Any help is needed.
I don't mean to hijack or anything but have you considered making a linear actuator yourself? All you need is some all-thread of appropriate diameter and that servo and there you go. Should be more stable and stronger (able to lift more than a conventional winch system). Good luck, looks very good.
Guide for moddin push buttons Have been looking on the buttons from Bulgin But I want to make my own. Front view Side view Just wanna change the front (the thing u touch with your finger). To a 15 mm dia. 5 mm thick acryl piece.(light up by a blue led) Which button are most suitable(cheap, UK) Any guides on this?
Im also looking for something similar to a fan duk (dunno how u spell that) But is to hide all my cables comming from the back of the case down under the table.. so it looks clean ( one for PCI/AGP and one for I/O ) The pipe from the nut, shall be some sort of bendable metal.. The nut and the male nut??? shall be 10 cm in dia. Where can I get this?
The make of a model To day I started to make a model in full size. full size More will come. If anyone have any tips/help to my earlier posted questions, I would be
