Suprise . . .I like blingy resevoirs . . .You should talk to TribalOverkill some
did some color changes, blue as a scheme. i like it
i forgot the measure the inside diameter of the ek res
and i reminded myself multiple times to do it! :mad:
i personally like a more creative res too, tribaloverkill
has some amazing work, its crazy since it all done by
hand.
hopefully when i have time today i have another design
in mind. moving away from the cylinder shape :up:

Stick with the silver mounts imo
No way, the full clear looked best.
evil, your socali?
care to make one for me? :D
PM me the price, i would love a custom res from a local builder.
I would love the internal to be either black or mirrored plexiglass tho.
That would look tight.
Actually i'll dont mind taking the internal blue one either. :D
One favor tho, can you make the top thread single? Or dual it up so it matches the Koolance fan mount. Then you can use koolance's mounting hardware and mount them directly to fans or on a 120mm fan hole.
A work of art! You have mad rendering skillz!
It's all your fault every time I see a new product picture now I have to doubletake and make sure it's real..:D
OH DOE! these are all rendered?
I was thinkn, oh boy i get another toy to play with. :\
Amazing work.:up: The actual rez and the rendering - very wicked. I love the idea of some mirror plexi on the interior.
Man there's some creative s*** on here!:cool:
haha, sorry yea there all renders :/ but ill be attempting to make a few soon :)
just need to make some material lists and finally buy a scroll saw and some
sanders, might be a while, just bought my camera! :eek:
lookin' good evil, I'm digging the direction you're going with this. :up:
yeah when you can calculate aprox. cost I would love to buy one!
thanks everyone, im going to commission an acrylic company to do all the cuts for me
so i can just attempt to assemble it. and if im not successful, DIY kits :) :up:
Just an FYI.....acrylic tubes aren't exactly "round", could make making these nice looking reservoirs a real :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: to assemble. ;)
you mean the fillets? couldnt i just route it very carefully? if not i could make a jig to hold the 2" rod and run it on my drill press and manually carve the fillets
either way of course its not going to be easy, ill try my best :up:
If your planning on making these from solid acrylic rods, then I don't see a problem.
It would however be more efficient/cost effective to use acrylic tubing, the problem with cast acrylic tubing (even extruded to some degree) is the inside and outside diameters of the acrylic tubes are slightly oval. The insides would need to be turned to true them up for solid mounting of the internals.
clear holders ftw
Gee never had anyone offer to buy my custom res and it exsists lol. It did cost me a ridiculous amount but its the only one and I love it to bits. Being bronze it does heat up when gaming.
Good on you evil, get creative and make something different, its to easy to just buy everything.

It holds about 1.5 litres.
thats a very bold res you have there fragger, i do like the polished bronze :up:
anyone know of a place i can get extruded acrylic tubes locally in socal?
its getting to expensive to get it all cut and shipped here.. :( all i really
need is some rods and some tubes.
also whats the recommended adhesive? im looking locally but i cant find
any acrylic glue/weld.
Nice work mate, first time I've seen somebody render a technical drawing properly :p:, cheers!
What renderer did you use for those stills? Vray?
all render were done in maxwell render :up: each baked for a good 15+ hrs :) fun huh lol.. one day ill make a farm with like 40 cores maybe then it will take like 15 mins
check out tribaloverkills resevoirs over at www.bit-tech.net they are incredible!
what program did you use bro?
hey Evil, tho the idea of "baffles" inside the res is great... what about cleanup? it looks like a lot of compartments.. perhaps a tad simpler and yet effective?
i'm curious as to how you will create the rounded edges and such... but love your idea bro...
Naekuh, bro, you need to wipe the crud off your eyes man... LOL!
