Unless you're doing tight bends, you don't really need mandrels. Use the corner of your desk as a guide for 90 degree angles. Silicon insert is essential though.

Got the bykski ones for the size tube im using for £11 on ebay and a silicon insert for £4. Should be here in the next few days. No point carrying on without the insert it seems. Im going to have a valve out of the back panel of the case where I can drain the loop which will come out of the bottom of the flow meter down into where the power supply is. No real issue with this is there?

Ohh the white RGB looks really clean actually! Really like the way the helix and CPU block are lit up too!

Question though, will you be integrating RGB into the desk? :cool:

Of course the rear of the monitor and desk will have it the same way mine has. :)

thats where i would have put drain valve too
 
So I set myself up with the msi as it suits my build more I think and also got the model O set up. I like it:



Just tidying up the other side of the room now ready for these bits to go in.

Good news as there isn't anywhere else to put it.

Her desk is going to be a full meter shorter than mine so i'm not sure how this will all work but i'm sure ill work it all out when the desk gets here. This is my office and the pc is more geared for other tasks than out and out gaming. Nobody picked a threadripper as an out and out gaming cpu but it does just fine.

Did some more dremel work. Gotta clean up the lines and give it a coat of white but you get the idea. Will get out the metal files tomorrow and clean it up.



I am also thinking that the black bit on the fans has to also go purple. @Illuminist is that better with those drives now?

We are cracking along and there will be some more tomorrow some things are drying so I will hopefully get it assembled and ready for the other bits to arrive. Do a few of the other clean up jobs tomorrow and it should be good to go next week.
 
ergh something went wrong with some of the paint... looks like ill need to start again on some of it :(

I also just bought HL:Alyx so we might slow down a bit for a few days :D

:eek: How wrong?! Do we get to see? Heheh

Oh nice! I was watching a video of Linus reviewing a bunch of the VR and minimum setup for running it. What gear you going with?

Also it looks like there is barely any difference between the quality settings, except you just get more FPS and smoothness. Let us know how you like it! Cheers

Ill be playing it on my machine which is TR 1950x, 64gb ddr4 3466, radeon 7, Rift S.

And you don't get to see how wrong i'm afraid, i have already wet sanded it all back and given it some love. It is just drying now but second attempt looks good.
