Re: Post pictures of your homebuilt blocks here!
Hello, i'm new to this forum but i must say it's the most Proffesional forum in the water cooling feild.
So let me show you my blocks. This is the first block i ever made: http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/3968/blockee3.jpg This is my second block, cross driled: http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/8...lock001ui9.jpg And here is my latest block which is made using only dremel: http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/6...ne20004zu1.jpg http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/3...ne20010wp9.jpg So what do you think? |
Re: Post pictures of your homebuilt blocks here!
That last one is pretty nice, nice hardware selection. Question: does water filter out? Your block doesn't seem to have a rubber-band like most do, that is, most copper+acrylic blocks.

I guess you are talking about a rubber seal.
I don't have the tools to make a channel for the seal so i used a silicone betwen the acrylic and the cooper. seems to hold prety good for a year now. |

Forgot to post images in here. This is my "Nazca" block design which was made through a tortuous amount of work on a manual knee mill.

The channels were cut with a bandsaw. http://www.captainslug.com/modding/krakatoa_91.jpg |

Re: Post pictures of your homebuilt blocks here!
Pierre your stuff simply blows me away, do you machine professionally? Any chance I can get some of your cad/solidworks designs? I want to make a block and like what you've done there.
-Question: when people are putting acrylic tops on their blocks, how are they getting them air-tight? Is there some sort of rubber lining going around the copper or acrylic that I don't see? |
Re: Post pictures of your homebuilt blocks here!
Other people here also have excellent work too, its pretty awesome stuff

Ben is right on. I've also seem some people use gasket material that you can get at an auto parts store.

Re: Post pictures of your homebuilt blocks here!
Cool thanks. Any reason to use on sealing method over another? I'll likely use goop/rubber, not gasket if they'll be equally reliable.
