Thanks very much dude

ADORABLE and PRICEY!
Thankyou dude.

STATUS UPDATE:

Im holding out on some pictures of some work ive been doing on the project, so I have a bigger update to feast your eyes on!

I have cut the acrylic for the top of the boards waterblock and mounted it.

I polished the RAD, Waterblock and RPi holders.

The hose fittings are being machined by a friend of mine, as they are too small for my lathe, really need to buy a CNC one.

I need to order some coolant, so I will be doing it sometime this week!

The blocks have not yet seen the platers, but hopefully sometime this week!

UPDATE SOON GUYS I PROMISE!

 

Holy fook! SUBBED!

 

Thanks jeckulz dude!

Thanks fella.. Need to change the images on the RPi comp page!
I have ordered the UV Pink coolant as that is so far ahead of any other colour!
Just a few final bits and it will all come together!

 

Still can't get over that cute little waterblock.

 

Looks good, dude

Subbed

 

Thank GOD I didn't enter this competition!
I would have probably gone the same way, but I highly doubt I could have pulled it off as amazing as you do!

Frikkin awesome!

 

You've probably spent more on this than the 1st prize is even worth. but who cares. It breaks the boundaries of pointlessness and awesomeness.

 

I know man, its tiny!

Thankyou very much dude

Naa your machining skills are awesome dude!
Thankyou very much though!

I have dude, the pump cost more! ><
Thanks mate!

--------------------------------------------------------------->

I have some nice shots to show you guys, I have a new DSLR so will be taking the final shots with that so hopefully I can give you some nice shots finally!

Sorry for the lack of updates I have just been very busy, as at work we have our new 5 axis laser being delivered and we have had to rip up the floor and move alot of machines to get it to fit!

Exciting times ahead!

Updates early next week!

 

Truly unique! Only to have access to that metalworking equipment!

 

5 axis laser. 5 AXIS LASER!!!!!! The things you'll be able to do with that!!

 

This is just pure amazingness!! I would pay a LOT of money to have a few of these things in my house, all with good healthy overclocks, and all looking super sweet with Pink Raspberry cooling fluid running through their tiny veins!

Amazing work mate, Im in awe!!

 

Thankyou dude, I am lucky in that way!

Yeah can't wait for it to arrive! - My first project on it will be crazy!

Thankyou sir! Yeah the fluid looks awesome, arrived on Tuesday!

UPDATE 2 - 5/04/13

This update will consist of fixing holes for the Pi holders and the parts being sent to platers.

I know the updates have been abit lacks of late.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->















I dropped the parts off at the platers this afternoon, there going to do it for free!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->

I forgot to show close up pictures on the acrylic top for the waterblock, so I have a couple here.





I am still currently waiting for the hose fittings from my mate, I made the mistake of telling him there not on rush!

Thanks guys, will let you know as soon as the parts get plated.

I am currently still holding back the pictures of the assembled thing, as I would like it to be a surprise!

Phame​

 

Holding back assembled pics ? someone hasn't been taking up your time have they ?

 

Not at all Andy, not at all!

 

Why would you deny us what we want after spoiling us this much?

 

Sorry Cheaps!
I just want to get it all finished now, ready for the photo shoot!

 

Okay, this is ludicrously filled with awesomeness, I love it. But where's the rad ? It deserves a rad.

 

This just looks so cool but also so cute at the same time

Really looking forward to the assembled pics!

 

I have realized that everyone who didn't join the contest after seeing this still have a chance to win. The plater could take too long for you to make the deadline.
*hint* People, get building!
