fuzion v1 and 1/2 ID 3/4 OD tubing

[Sparky]

I searched and came up with nothing. Do wormdrive clamps fit on a fuzion with 3/4 OD tubing on it? I'm tired of UV dye fading out and getting on stuff so I was thinking of replacing my tubing with UV tubing but it only comes in 3/8 ID 1/2OD or 1/2ID 3/4OD :(

Anyone have any of the green feser or primochill tubing? How green is it? I want a nice rich green, not some pale almost teal green.

Yes they do fit. I use them. It's a bit hard to slide them on. Some put the fitting on the barb and slide the hose down into the clamp. Then tighten up the clamps.

Yes 1/2ID 3/4OD does fit with worm drives. You have to do one at a time as Conumdrum has stated. It also helps to have them facing different directions...http://img143.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture151cc9.jpg . Its a pretty bad pic, but hopefully that will illustrate what I mean by facing different directions.

Off topic: Once I get a chance I am going to finally mod my case (same one as yours) to do a all internal build. If you dont mind, or if you get a chance, could you send me pics of the way you top mounted your RAD and mounted the PSU.

yonton, here is the link to my worklog, hope it is helpful :)

page 3 has the pics of the cutting of the case and remounting of the PSU. Since then I have put the clear panel on it and put a mesh in the old PSU hole.

Thanks for the info guys on the tubing. Good to know. I don't want to go to 3/8 because IMO it is too small looking and I'd have to buy all new barbs :rolleyes: 7/16 looks best to me.

Any idea on how green either of those two glow?

Could try emailing PPC and ask if they could take a pic of each under UV light....Worth a shot.

Well, looks like its a bit late as you've already finished your project (looks great btw!)
But here's how my UV green 1/2" Fesertube, UV green Feser1 and UV green primochill coils look in the dark under UV light

Nope not too late at all :) that is my project from last summer, what I'm looking for now is a way to get the green glow without dye in the water since it always fades out and/or ends up sticking to the innards of the blocks :down:

Thanks for the pic!

I suppose one thing that is holding me back is the tubing looks "flat" it isn't shiny clear outside with green inside. Hmm...
