    Project Yoshi - Hex Gear R40

    Project Yoshi - Hex Gear R40

    I'm having a tough time photoing the actual liquid colour, it's more vibrant than the images show. The mixture is Pastel White, UV Green and Laser Green Small update on the liquid and the sleeving process. I really didn't want to modify the case at all but I wanted a low key fill and drain...

    Project Yoshi - Hex Gear R40

    Thanks man! :p *I am uploading temp images until I can access some better/HQ ones* As an avid build log reader, theirs nothing worse than large chunks of the build not being documented, for many reasons I don't have as many images as I would like. I would like to thank Phil for the late...

    Next little update for you lot before I make the first massive hurdle that is powder coating. Which I have to be honest I'm struggling with the colour choices, I had a choice in mind but as I progress, I'm really on the fence just now. That said I have only a few days to make my mind up...

    My last few shipments of fittings and pass through ports could be another week or so, so I have some time to fill, I've made some minor tweaks here and their to resolve some areas that have niggled me for some time. Particularly the reservoirs. It just didn't quite work and took away some of...

    It's been a slow month but progress is starting to take shape now. First thing I ordered was http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-180-XS It was on “deal for today” I believe. I didn’t strictly need it but at the price it would be rude not too. My first thing...

    The bulk of the case has been fabricated today with the a few smaller cosmetic and structural supports to be added soon. I've also located a local business to do the powder coating. I'm still sat on the fence about fittings and tubing route but now that I have a live version to work with...

    'm a little behind schedule for a few reasons. Mostly lack of machine time at my local CNC/Fabrication. It's been has been a nightmare try to get shop floor time since they took on additional work. Target for MKII is middle of next week. The real issue the tubing and the guess work involved at...

    thing is though the more its sat here in front of me for the last week or so, the more I've realised it needs to be downsized for sure. With that said it was back to sketechup to trim it down some. Aside from trimming it down a fairly obvious flaw is present in MK1, the bottom chamber had the...

    Project Squircle - Scratchbuild

    Due to legal reasons and technical boring stuff,I'm not able to show much of the actual fabrication process. So the exterior frame was made with two sheets, bent that meet at the middle. They have been a few blunders between the work my brother did and some of guys that helped with the...
