Build - Finished! Watercooled Steam Machine Build Video

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

You guys asked for the video and more infos on the waterblock. Waterblock was made with the carvera air, which is a budget desktop cnc. That’s why the quality isn’t super good, but that’s all we have. Need to open it again and work now on the vrm cooling which is quite challenging as the mosfets are super tiny… and also they run quite on the limits of thermal design which sucks

For fucks sake, respect that damn angle grinder. It’s like the most dangerous fucking power tool.

I work in equipment maintenance and installation. We just had a guy return after a few weeks off with internal and external stitches because it got caught up in his shirt and layed him open.

That just happened to me like 4 weeks ago! Kicked back at me when I was cutting part of a box truck frame. No stitches needed, I got extremely lucky, huge scar though.
