almost there at last!
my high-tech holding tool
nearly done, still need to get rid of a thin copper layer and the solder
at first i didn't want to remove the copper surrounding but i removed it after all
done!, will it boot?
of course it still works, i can't believe you doubted
the IHS have been sanded down totally using power tools, the only problem is the heat generated by the sanding action.
I've tried everything i had under the hand:
Belt sander > generated lots of heat, probably the worst of them all, but the sandpaper was done and didn't bother changing it to see if it helped.
Grinder/flapdisc > did 80% of the job with this, generates LOTS of heat. 20sec sanding/2minutes off
8" disc sander > with 60 grit that thing works really good, no to be used toward the end tho, or with very little pressure
orbital sander > than thing amazed me, even with gritty sandpaper it doesn't leave a mark and doesn't generates heats like the other tools. you can literally sand without stopping. But it's slow compared to the hardcore sanders
Next time i lap a CPU i'll use this to get the top off and finish by hand
hand> works good as usual but not fast enough for me
why i did this?
just for the hell of it
cpu is damaged, but still works see sig for what it can do, but can't stay on without a bsod for a more than a few hours in a row. He deserved some punishments after so many hassle
don't try this at home, dangerous procedure!
