k guys ..

its the boy's first attemp to air-brush, give him a break smile.gif

he invested around RM 1.2k of paints, machines, good brush tip just to get the job done, not mentioning the RM 1k + chasis

the protective lacquer was like 4-5layers done at car paint workshop, dont know how much it cost also ..

imo, design is so so ... but hey, watch out for our very own next air-brush job soon .. hope it doesnt get flame up .. heheh biggrin.gif


meantime, this project is finishing soon but dont expect too much out of this one ....

here show a custom build reservoir. the res is designed for dual watercooling, which mean water is seperated, and we can have 2colors of water inside.

CNC + handmade. so not much of commercial standard. but its gonna work anyway ..

stay tuned for the finale !


the res is made by the 17yr old airbrush boy again .. with some external help i guess.. no joke, cos his dad owns a workshop with expensive machines ..

the air brush job done very nice, only design maybe not for all ppl taste, maybe is because the smoke, personal comment is, maybe can spray whole case in Yellow color.

Aiyoyo. U shud haf told him to clean up the hoses 1st. Not nice lar, everything so 1337 then teh hoses all dirty. Like a pretty chic with bad teeth. Smile oni the guys pengsan. laugh.gif The reservoir is really nice. I wish I had access to CNC machines. The local shops in PJ charge an arm n leg n then another arm n leg for custom parts.

aiyo .. the clearflex are about RM 10 per feet leh. so can't afford to cut new just for leak test mah.

so re-use old ones ... lol


and yea, custom stuff very costly sad.gif

that reservoir u guys see is actually milled out from a big piece of acrylic block. so there's no joint parts, except the top panel with the custom cut rubber seal that act like gasket seal.

all in all, this acrylic res is only 2 parts... thus guarantee NO leak, other then the threading area for the 4barbs.

nice reservoir, but not match with the case color, so i think better cover it with the original 5.25" drive cover.

Yup don't really match with the airbrushing...and the colour looks abit deep because of the thick reservoir wall
