    Outcast 2 Piece Tube With DetroitAC Base *UPDATED*

    Hey guys I am currently in the process of finally getting my tube done, I cant wait to finally put it to good use.

    I thought I would post some teaser pictures before I do all the brazing tomorrow .

    These pictures dont do the work that DetroitAC did justice! He did a great job on this for such a fair price and fast turn around for a custom piece!

    Thanks DetroitAC

    Please try not to drool on your keyboard....





    Thats all for now check back soon for an update

    UPDATED PICTURES

    Alright guys I know it took me about a week to get this done and
    quite a few hours cleaning it up because well..... I'M A NOOB when
    it comes to building these things as it is my first one I built, and
    as you can tell from the pictures some of my brazing skills are not
    the best

    Anyways here it is in all its glory! thanks again to DetroitAC

    Here is the tube after being brazed... yes I know my skills arnt the
    best but I am getting better. Note the EXCESS amount of brazing
    on the hold down..


    Alright here I am starting to clean up all the brazes and oxidation...
    That was fun!!!!


    Here is the tube after all the major cleaning up has been done!!
    pheew that was a BLAST


    Next step was to lapp the bottum, this was fairly easy becasue of DetroitsAC's skills..


    Here I have made my cutting board hold downs..... LOL they need to be cleaned up a bit yet.


    Here is the systems the tube is going to be used on, hopefuly i can really push the e6700!! the phase isnt quite cutting it at the moment.


    Alright I have one more thing, and I need you guys input on
    this matter, as i have already said I am a noob to building
    these tubes, and I didnt have the quipment to properly purge
    the inside on the tube while brazing... soooo I still have a
    slight oxiidation problem (see picture) I have tried vinigar
    multiple time and it sees to be working but i was wondering if
    there might be a better solution to gett ALL of this junk out!!
    I want Detroits base to work to its full potential!!! Any Ideas???
    PLease let me know. THen next step i might try is some sort of
    electrolisis (spelling?) IDK please give some input!
