Add some vodka or gin, a slice of lemon, tastes awesome! You watch, when people are at bars or resturants, they won't be ordering martini's or manhattan's, they'll be asking for a Teyber. It's excellent to read that you are making these things for customers! You have a nice hobby that can make you some cash on the side. That would be a cool weekend job actually, making complete custom phase change setups for overclockers. Even if you used the profits to just buy more tools, your hobby would be paying for itself! Register it as a business, and tools can be purchased at trade price, and can be then claimed on tax, not to mention electricity, car, pc, net, phones, heaps of good stuff
hey! funny you say that- I have a book with income/outcome just for hobbies... basically any time i have "excess" i buy more tools... et cetera. Im currently making a SS for a customer and a chiller for a customer, and 2 evaps for customers. Its more then a weekend thing now... since im in High school i got lots of time afterschool to work i don't charge tax on any of my stuff, so i think for the write-off's to happen i would have to start doing that. cheers
no offense taken- wait do you mean my first mountinsg or my first work? my first work sucked i wanted round corners on these mounts and couldn't figure out how to do it... finally i had an "moment". just drill a 1/8" hole dead center, put a screw and a nut on it, put it in rotary table and let it spin
Well heres another evap. thank you tuchan for your patience. My brute 2 started leaking so i couldn't leak test this. i finally had to wait so long i bought a new manifold just for leak testing this while i send my brute 2 back to yellowjacket (lifetime warrenty Cheesecake!!!). So my friend thank you so much for your incredible patience! i will be giving tuchan a maze evap i have here and a suction line free. here are the pics. after the wait i didn't want to have to leak test it again and risk leaks by completely getting all the silfos off. cheers
You should start sending packs of kneaded erasers instead of neoprene for insulating. Yes, of course it's an XS thing.
you know... thats not a bad idea kayin thanks for suggesting that i want to try it for myself first... See if its a 24/7 solution (ive only seen it on benching) cheers
lol! well didnt' quite finish this kit today... got in a argument with my mum so had to stop working. And had something really frustrating happen :O only thing left to do is to paint the backplates... 1 had a bit of oxidation(steel) so i put it on my expensive belt sander, and it sucked it into the bottum of it. I really hope i can get it out... for one its my last steel backplate, second i need to use my belt sander! So besides that its ready. ill try to tilt it upside down and get it out tomorrow afterschool. BTW im sending ruffus 2 different evap designs and hes telling me which one gives him better core temps cheers!
freaking massive man, will you be trying a 2+ cascade system soon, temps like -90/ -100! Freaking epic. Have you converted your mill to cnc stepper motor control yet?
thanks dude i "havn't" converted it yet, but im doing it currently. I am ordering parts and have some more to go. Illl problably start a thread when im done with it ruffus is the man. he sent me some pics today, he offered to bead blast the evaps so i took him up on it. I can't believe how they look, just by the picture too. Thanks man!
It seems like 400 years I have been watching your neat stuff. You have some excellent skills but I still have no idea what an evap is or how It works, I just like to watch you persevere. Thanks for sharing all this. Only question I have is can it be used to cool a Guinness? john
Thanks dude! this could definately cool a guinness, a better way to cool it would be to have coiled copper tube for the evaporator and submerge that in a liquid (depending on how cold you want it) and then submerge the beverage in there. The evap is where the refrigerant evaporates, gettting very cold. This mounts on the CPU, and the better the design of the evaporator the smaller the difference between the evaporator and the cpu(i.e. the best heat transfer). Think of it like a waterblock that gets super cold
New one for ruffus just threw in the 3/8" stub sorry its crooked in a picture can't wait to see her beadblasted
Awesome looking stuff Very professional Hope your sander is ok! I'm not sure why you would need to sand out oxidation, was it so bad that you couldn't just use some chemical or alcohol, like acetone or something?
hey! sander is OK now. i got her running again Problem with chemical washes is that you must get 100% of it out of the evaporator before use. cheers
