aright my board is back from RMA and i have my system running on aircooling until nik can ship the res. can we PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get an ETA?
nikhsub1, if you are still looking for the parts you contacted Eddy about LMK. I think I know of a place where you can get what you are looking for on the cheap.
PM me and I share the details with you.
Thought I would update... Res' are done, assembled! I've had a bit of a nightmare with the o-rings. I thought the plugs (Legris) came with o-rings, they did not. No problem, I ordered some EPDM o-rings from McMaster... well, I put them on all 100 plugs, inserted them into all reservoirs, then decided the o-rings were a bit too thick :( . OK, ordered smaller thickness o-rings for the plugs, remove all plugs from reservoirs, remove thick o-rings, put thinner o-rings, reinstall all plugs in reservoirs. Good, water tight and fits nice! Got the barbs today from Eddy_EK. His barbs came with o-rings but not installed on the barbs. OK, installed the provided 0-rings on all 100 barbs, test on a reservoir. Not water tight :( . The problem is that the nut portion of the barb just above the threads is LARGER than the counterbore on my res by like 1mm... but just enough to where if you were to crank the barb in it would mar the res outside of the counterbore, not cool.
So I say "Self!, WTF are you gonna do now p00n?" Well give me a minute there Beavis! Oh, yeah, I've got the thicker o-rings that were too thick for the Legris plugs, maybe those will work on the barbs!!! Badabingbadaboom! Success! Next step is to remove all 100 o-rings from the barbs and install 100 thicker o-rings on barbs.
Now for the mount, I am going in a different direction with the mounts, they will be PLEXI. Aluminum will be available at a LATER time! The dual bay plexi mounts are AWESOME and can be had in clear, smoked and black. The square 'top' mounts will also be plexi and will be available in the same colors. Oh, did I mention that the square (non bay) mount will mount to any 120mm fan case hole? :D Pictures will be up as soon as the mounts arrive, should be early next week. These are coming from a very unlikely source too :D
Daul bay mount will be ~$18 and the square mount ~$10.
are you sure that plexi will hold up to the weight of the res with water in it, as well as any force that the tubing may place on it?
and i have a slight guess that you're getting acrylic mounts from mountainmods?
Yes it will be fine :DQuote:

<<<< ears perk up"
Pumps, did I hear pumps? Where when how? oh wait wrong thread:D
Can you post pictures of all the new sexy assembled reservoirs?:D I need my daily pr0n
Sad that you arent taking anymore orders. I would have jumped on this if I knew when you were taking orders.
Very nice. I would LOVE to have one of these for my setup.
id love one, either without the 5.25 bracket or with just flat alu instead if possible
Question about bay mount: "$18 is just for plate or is it comes with complete bay mount?"
As soon as I receive the mounts, I will PM the people on my list. What I have left over will go to those who have PM'd me with interest.
is there a possibility of a second batch? or is the demand pretty satuated atm
COMPLETE MOUNT!Quote:

Nik, did u see my PM?
YAY!!!! aDaM's display pic is back :D:D:D:D
there is no thermal expansion in a res cutie :) Not enough to make acrylic crack anyway.Quote:

nik, can you provide all of the part numbers for the fittings from mcm?? it would be nice to have for future reference in case we needed a replacement or wanted to change out some of those stoppers for a fillport or something. also can you give the pn for the o-rings?
thnx
moonlight, the plugs are from Legris... not easy to get but they are the plugs that come with the Innovatek Fass-O-Matic or the Bullseye res from cape corp. The barbs are from Eddy_EK and are G1/4" thread, DD perfect seal barbs will work too. Eddy's barbs come with too skinny an oring to work right on the res, the oring I used for the barbs is mcmaster part # 9557K472 (which is the same size as the DD barb orings) and the oring for the glass is mcmaster part # 9557K124. The part # for the orings on the PLUGS is macmaster part # 9557K465.
Only use EPDM O-rings!!!!!
nik, Eddy's O-Rings... will they work on the Alphacool DDC top?
Yes, they work with everything except my res...Quote:

Any ETA as to when they will be done and ready to ship?
The res' are done and ready to ship, but, they will be kinda useless without the mounts and that is what im waiting on... should be here any day.Quote:

No. I don't want to have anyone pay and then have to wait... when EVERYTHING is ready, the contact begins.Quote:

They don't know what they want either cause they have not seen the mounts... people need to see them to DECIDE what they want. Then, all will be good in the world.Quote:

but nik, do u ever check youre PM's?
Well they are done. I did not get the square 120mm fan mount plates... but they are the same material as the face portion of the mount and come in clear, smoked and black plexi. Now for some pics, I have decided I just suck at taking pics :(

Thanks Nik for replying. Additional information provided via PM. :)
daaammmmnnn but I still prefer black :P
its THE BLOB!!!!!!!! or a giant square boogie :-p
that is a monster of a case Nik
The res appears to be floating in the case. I bet it looks cool at night! :toast: :toast:
Oh and by the way Nikhsub1, you do realize that it is all your fault for making me order a U2-UFO? ;) :D
Very nice work man. :clap:
Wow - that does look awesome floating there. Great work as always!
Nik how did you get that Noise Isolator to fit?
I second that and If my wife asks just tell her you are going to send me a check. :)Quote:

I tried that, it scratched up the sides and it was a pain to take out. So I said screw it and got some Sunbeams.Quote:

got the Res. today, it looks really nice but I didn't get the bay mount yet so assume bay mount ship seperately?
Yes! Shipping seperately. It would have taken longer for me to order the mounts in the colors you guys requested, have them shipped to me, then ship them out to you. I figured at least you can have the res to play around with :DQuote:

Lots of goodies here, including a temp probe...

I got the mounting bracket for the reservoir today. Nik, my hats off to you both the delrin tube and mounting bracket are perfect.
I received it on 6/28/06, they definitely live up to their reputation.Quote:

OMG MAN! The final looks so much better than your first pics. Haven't seen this thread in the last 3 months or so but now I want one again. When are you making your next batch? Finally made some money and am getting a WC system. I'm thinking I might just forget about getting a block for my 7800GT and get this instead lol it's just too good to let slide by :banana: .
