creative troubles

[silverdemon]

wow, really like it, comming together slowly but steadily. I'd really like to see how this works out! do you have some kind of deadline? or are you just trying to get it perfect?
keep up the good work!

[Slug Toy]

perfection is the name of the game right now. i WAS interested in maximan's little contest, but if the deadline is august 14.... that wont happen.

i may enter a contest, but it wont be one that dictates my schedule. i wont rush anything for the sake of competition... id rather wait to win three months later than come in second now.

at the moment, the design phase seems to be winding down. everything has been thought of. i cant really start this until august though, after my final exams. maybe gather some materials and get some blueprints done up.... possibly even a LITTLE bit of work between now and then, but school is #1 for now.

so im going to fix that one little front intake thing, and then that is it for now.... key phrase being "for now" because things change. i can always help out gearhead if i need something to occupy myself.

and that he did


ouu that give me a fuzzy fealing

you are right about the front it does look out of line
what are you going to put behind it
are you goona put the rad

ah, nope... no radiator in the front. the radiator is the waterwall... thats why i call it the waterwall, all the cooling happens there, and convection will be a player (hot water in the top, cold out the bottom because cold water sinks).

the front is just where the air goes in, and works its way over to the radiator. if you need, ill see if i can whip up a model of the radiator i have in mind, and put it in the case to show you. it wouldnt take too long. might as well do that tonight too, i gotta be up in 6 hours, and i just had an EXHILARATING conversation so im in no mood to sleep.

[GT40_GearHead]

you do that

EXHILARATING conversation

is that in good or bad way
<EDIT>
BTW: i have something for you, check my log

[Slug Toy]

alright, new intake for the water cooling air supply.

the picture says enough about itself... i dont think i need to add anything. just admire....

oh, yes... exhilarating in a good way right now... possible bad effects on wednesday... we'll see.

[GT40_GearHead]

you sure got the admire part right
i like the look of it and with all that space for the filter you aint gonna have no flow problems

[Slug Toy]

wow, i think im getting fairly good at sketch up now... im already done the radiator layout.

so you can see now where the radiator will be. of course... the radiator will be a little more complex than that, but i dont want to be here ALL night modelling.

like i said, hot water in the top, cold water out the bottom. simple... hopefully.

<EDIT> done for the night. i just cant handle the all nighters anymore. gotta be fresh for school....

[GT40_GearHead]

now i get the full picture
dude what's going on i have been gon for 3 days, i dont see anything new ,are you ok?

[Slug Toy]

oh ya, well youve already seen what ive gotten myself into. this contest is now my baby i guess.
