Re: Project: PrometheusCu
Thanks a lot guys, and @gramatton - I did pop the keys off, but I had to tape over the electronics and the clips that hold the keys.
The sun is out so I got some better pictures.
Here is the 'fillport' for the first loop - this will be a bit more complex later on.
Here is the 'fillport' for the second loop, This T will be swapped for a Q and too will have a bit more added to it.
Here's where the Pico Rad will be mounted:
Here is a super simplified version of what will -sort of- be happening later.
*click for big*
I must stress that this is just the beginning, I have quite a few surprises left for this loop.
Also I will note that because of the second loop I'll no-longer be running the blocks in parallel - like my first diagram showed. The added tubes of the second loop kind of ruined that plan.
SO much more coming.
Tune in soon.
