    I know this should be in the project logs but I don't have any pictures as of yet :p

    Anyway, as some of you know I'm wanting to watercool my PC, in an Antec 300. Now I won't call this a project log because the last two I did went belly up :p Regardless this should be short and sweet, hopefully finished by new year's :)

    Right, so far I've taken the 140mm fan grill off, the plans will follow I promise, but the basic idea is to have a proper fan grill (not the crappy honeycomb ones already on the 300) supporting the reservoir, with a 140mm fan grill mounted externally. I know it's cheating a bit but it's not as bad as having the res/rad/whatever on the outside (that's my justification anyway :p )

    I've taken out the second lot of 5.25" supports as my radiator won't fit if I don't, it's not prettiful (yet) but I'll tidy it up tomorrow

    Left to do:
    -Get distilled water
    -Leak test
    -Cut window
    -Get double sided tape
    -Enjoy Christmas
    -Fix radiator fans
    -Go round mum's
    -Get Liz back
    -SORT LIFE OUT

    Ok, we *finally* have an update (long story short, but it involves a giraffe, a man with a hairy arsecrack, and the camera going dodgy)

    Block attached

    Leak test done, dry as a bone :D not bad for a first effort

    Added my fandwich (see what I did there? :D) Fan grill>fan>Grill that works as a support for the res

    Ooh, what's this? UV pink dye from Mayhem's Dyes? (thanks again for mixing it in a 10ml bottle mate :D)

    I should point out, this was a 1.5l bottle of water (as a test)... I added FIVE DROPS and got this result :jawdrop:

    Get D/S tape
    Give Mayhem a bit more ass-kissing
    Sort picture sizes out... give me 10 minutes :p
