iandh gets frisky with his XSPC top...

[iandh]

I decided that I wanted my standard XSPC top to be a res top instead, so I spent a few hours at the shop last night:

I was actually was supposed to be working on a waterblock base that someone commisioned, but I screwed that up horribly so I decided to do this instead since it has been on my list for a while.

That is made of pure awesome. How did you do it?

[TedShred]

Wow. Skyscraper Rez. That is SO SO cool!!

[Big_Daddy]

Can't tell, does it have the tube insert on the intake?

[iandh]

OH MAN that thing is awesome! so when is it available :yepp:

[Xilikon]

Looks great, it's a big reservoir but I guess it can be adapted to any height depending on need.

[Big_Daddy]

See, i wanted to do the exact same thing, Take a XSPC top, make a smaller plexi top for it, with a 90* tube inside it. (to put the inlet barb on the side) basically, a much improved Alphacool top. Then send it to Martin to be tested.

I may cut it down, the way that I determined the height was by cutting the 12" piece of acrylic that I ordered in half. Its total height from base to barb tip is about 9". It's essentially a 150mm res.

@Big_Daddy: The inlet barb was originally going to be 90 degree so that it faced the same as the outlet. I got lazy but I'm probably going to redo the top piece anyways so I will probably change it then.

nice tornador there or cyclone machine need to add a defuser on inlet

I'm only going to add the anti-cyclone insert if the flow of my loop warrants... they are not always necessary in restrictive loops.

[XS_RoB]

Pure Awesomeness! That looks phenominal and very professional!

Hats off to ya!

[Kayin]

I'm guessing that was mine.

Back to the drawing board, eh?

[NaeKuh]

Sexy! :up:

iandh you need a melvin tube in the inlet. :D

[iandh]

Well, I know for a fact I could do it with a teeny-tiny endmill (which I have) but it would take like 14hrs on the machine. :(

I PM'ed you btw.


Sexy! :up:

It's on its way, that size acrylic was not in stock on west coast. :)

[Kayin]

PM recieved and replied.

I wish I had space for something like that...

I got something to machine myself, you guys would like it...

Very nice work iandh !! I ordered a Stinger V8 a week ago and I will be getting one of your StealthRes's for the dual inlet option!

It's nice to see stuff like this. It gives nice alternatives from the commercial products. Everybody likes to see true craftsmanship!!

[Erdrick1980]

[zeropluszero]
