You Better pick up some Grommets & sleeves so your compressor doesn't shake your PC apart. Only a few bucks.

Umm yea, I have actually been looking for this for like a couple weeks now.... and..... yea that would be super nice if you could say where to get these rubber mounts.

[wdrzal]

You can get them at any refrigeration,A/C wholesaler or reseller or even your Maytag dealer will have them. Many plumbing and heating shops who carry refrigeration and A/C will also have them.

If they have refrigeration or A/C parts they will have them........I'm not talking automotive part stores or walmart either.

One Servant you may have difficulty finding them in your colors...I already checked and no matches. ........

did the compressor come with grommets or w/e the proper name is?(feet)?

Nope, the compressor didn't come with ANY accessories. I've had to get everything separate from the rubber feet, to the bolts, to the Supco 3-n-1.

Walt, I'd love to know where you found those as I bought one set exactly like that off eBay a few months ago and I haven't seen any since. I have that EXACT set for my NF11FX but I would really like to match the TF3F. I think I'm going to have to make a trip to my local refrigeration parts dealer to pick up another. When I found the originals I did an eBay search with this string: "Copeland feet".

I've got another question for you....how important do you think the sleeves are? I have tried fitting them with and without the metal sleeves and I can't tell which arrangement would make the best vibration absorbing solution.

uh oh- how long was the nf11fx un-capped, as shown in the picture during the painting?

She was only uncapped for a few minutes as I knocked the rubber stoppers out during her move to the painting table. I know I need to keep any debris out of it whilst I work but worry not about the oil. I've got some fresh POE ready to go when the time comes.

Well that stinks!! I was actually hoping to find some in hot pink to appease the guys in the comfortable shoes. Ron was telling me about those dudes....a strange lot they are.

I like to assume the worst, that way, if anything turns out better than absolutely terrible, I'm still in a good mood.

Ex:

He probably tried charging with propane and something went wrong that blew up him and his family and his house and the rest of the neighborhood and then started a huge state-wide forest fire.

So now if all of those things happened except the fire, I'm better off than i was before. Its like getting a check in the mail(I like MIR's)! Or acing a test!

Its pessimistic optimism!

I know they were in for some mighty heavy rain and wind down in his neck of the woods so I hope all is well.

Howdy guys! Sorry that it's been so long. If it's not one thing in life it's another! First, I took my wife on a surprise vacation for her birthday two weekends ago...then I came home to find that Tropical Storm Hanna was bearing down on my hometown so I had to baton down the hatches to get ready for that big blow...then the storm passed and I end up with a rip roaring case of Pharyngitis. Thus, I've been out of town, hunkering down during a storm, and now sick to the gills with a bad bug....whew…

I say all that to let you know where the heck I’ve been and that needless to say I’ve been too busy or incapacitated to work on the system. However, count on an update this evening! I’ll be back out in the Lab and back to work getting all the components locked down to the base. After I have everything bolted into place the copper bending work will ensue! I’m pretty excited about getting back to work…I think about my stalled progress every day. Anyway, thanks for your understanding and I’ll try to get a post up this evening before my head hits the pillow.

[teyber]

Im just glad to hear you are OK

[sjg0]

[Demthios]

Any updates on this at at?? I've been toying with the idea of doing a hybrid water/phase inside of a MM case like this would love to see how it comes out!

[teyber]
