MCP - Loved your last build, cant wait to see how this turns out

[melle.k]

looking good man
nice and compact case

[mcp]

Thank you

That's the main reason I changed the case. The Lian Li A70B was too big. That was also good reason to begin a new project

[Liderc]

External RAD is pure sex.

[mcp]

Thank you

This morning I was shopping. Bought some things complete the external Radiator:



In addition, there arrived bulgin switches and case feets

Hey @mcp,

We are same case generally here and as you can see that our cases has aluminium structural frame and it has no original paint on it. Because of that I would like to know how do you suggest make my case car paint well? I am asking that because it should be painted as electrostatic paint (powdercoating) first, after that it can be painted as car paint anyway. If it is not painted as electrostatic paint (powdercoating) first, I really wants to know how much would be healthy with only car paint anyway. I have some doubts about directly car painting it first time.

PS: You can check my currently worklog.

Thanks,
Arthur

Either you take car paint or you let powder coat your case. Both things would be to thick and it would not be more robust if there is powder coated aluminum under the car paint...

Some updates.

My watercooling stuff is ready to install:



And a comparison of the two glasses:


clear


milk acrylic glass

I think I'll take the clear one.

Here's a pic of my watercooling fluid:



At the moment I'm sleeving all the cables that I just brazed to the correct length.

This is a pic of the fans for the radiator, how they will look like:

Very very säggsy Paul - I if have seen this nice blue colour somewhere else today - is it also called the tOdeshand (deadhand) blue?

[mcp]

Thank you This blue is Feser One Fluid but the name also matches with my blue

[mcp]

Another Update:

Some Sleeve pics:





The bulgin switches:



The Sidepanel with an inlay window

[anubis_is_evil]

always big fan of you mcp ..

especially your last rig with Lian Li A70...that really caught my eyes..simple and luxury and of course inspired me to do the best aesthetics like yours..

cant wait to see this B10 mod further mcp, keep up the good work and hoping this will be on MDPC too

[mcp]

Thanks

Some pics of my Mora with a network cable for the fans:







I thought I would get my case tomorrow back from powder coating, but I have to wait till next monday/tuesday...

[Origin_Unknown]

love that rad- why does it have a network cable?

[mcp]

With the network cable the fans get power. there are 8 cables inside and I brazed the + an - pol of the three triples of fans to 6 of them. in the case they get their 3 pin connectors back an I connect them to a 4 Pin Molex. I hope, you understand it...

Looks great Paul, very nice work as always!

I'm enjoying following your progress M8.

[mcp]

Thank you, Charles and shazza

Next week it goes on with the powder coated case. Without the Case I can't do anything at the moment.

[kwscore]

[Ketzer7]

mcp- Woher hast Du die "Fuesse" fuer den Mora gekriegt? Oder hast Du die selbst gemacht? Danke!

(for everyone else I asked where he got the 'feet' for the Mora from)

[mcp]

A friend made them for me (Im Luxx gibt's n How-To)

Not all parts are back, but most of them:
