    Boomer Sooner!!

    Finally finished project!
  3. After bleeding the new loop of all air bubbles and ensuring all leaks were stopped, I was able to get the system build completed! Boomer Sooner!!
  4. After finally getting in all the parts, taking my time to complete all the hard tube bending, and then finishing my pass through connections to the underside, it was finally time to start filling the loop!
  5. After getting the case assembled I had to put my parts in to see how they would look and get an idea of what my loop was going to look like. After the mock up is when I placed the order for the majority of my fittings, tubing, etc.
  6. Here is a view of the assembled case, along with gallery showing the assembly process.
  7. It has been a long time since my last post. Here is the updated part list, pictures of the final stages of the build a coming soon...

  8. Thank you starwarsguy99, cooljonathan, and SMR! I contacted CaseLabs and my case is set to ship out on 3/13. Once I have the case together and parts installed I'll post more pics. I'm waiting until I have the parts in the case to order my tubing and fittings so it will still be another couple weeks after getting the case before the build is finalized. I got the monitor stand in tonight and had to put my 27" X-Star and two old 22" Westinghouse monitors on it just to use three monitors with my current build! : )
  9. Updated parts list. I purchased two more 27" 2560x1440 Korean monitors. Another X-star DP2710 and the First FSM 270YV IPS Panel. To hold the three monitors I also picked up an Ergotech 100-D16-B03-TW monitor stand.
