    Such an interesting little cascade, can't wait to see the evolution.

    About the tubes HX, is it supposed to be a SLHX ? And about compressor ?

    Your 220v Danfoss compressors are stonger than our 110v Danfoss along with the very nice condensers you have. You will probably have a champion cascade Your work is still really nice.

    Yeah, nice piping work, and unlike many systems, you have an electrical box

    Yeah piping went well, just straighten them up a little and clean them with scotch bright, after that spraypaint

    too many wires for not using a electric box

    good to see a new cascade coming together
    1. The first rule of Bench Club is, you do not talk about Bench Club
    2. The second rule of Bench Club is, you do not talk about Bench Club
    3. If someone says stop, goes limp, taps out, the the benching is over
    4. No bummers in the batcave, apart from unkie dave
    5. One Bench at a time
    6. No air, no water
    7. Benching will go on as long as they have to
    8. If this is your first night at Bench Club, you have to Bench
