I checked for update on this project every week since July. I think it will be the best custom pc ever created on planet. Your attention to detail is astonishing, blasted aluminium/machined chamfers looks great, and overall style is clean, without too much fancy colours etc...
As a person who loves CNC machining and who has a love for Design, this gives me inspiration that despite the technicalities of any design, it can be done masterfully with the right mindset and equipment.
When I first watched your video about 2 years ago, you had only 13k subscribers and I wondered why you had such low subscribers. And I shared your channel on University's telegram channel where I study, I wanted that a lot of people would enjoy your videos. It's an art, now you have 119k subs. I hope you best of luck and millions of views and subs. You deserve it. I wanna have such job like yours in near future. It's my love to technology and design, I would never get bored watching or doing these kinds of stuff
I’ve always wondered how do you clean up after acrylic? That stuff must go everywhere. You appear to work in such a small space, and what you able to achieve is amazing! Would love to see you organisation suggestion and tips! Great work and video!
Brilliant. You're right, the little details will make a huge difference. Question: What was the song playing during the montage of the finishing of the pump (starting at 13:46)?
Looks really good and should fit the rest of the system quite well but I recommend you put some thermal pads between the covers and the dccs so that they dont get too toasty.
I've been looking forward to seeing this starting again!!! I love the rad into the distro plate!! I wasn't going to mention wires. ;-) Excited to see the EKWB 3090 block! Is it the double sided one? =)
glad to be in the notification squad, the video isn't showing on my subs feed yet. just a quick 'YAY!' while 4K buffers, brightness up to max, now to sear this symphony of beauty into my retinas! :-D
If you plan on making more. i would suggest you see about getting some relieved chank endmills (0.1-0.01 total relief) for the deeper work (past 10mm total depth) - and perhaps when you make an aluminium fixture plate. make one for doing multiple parts op 1 only. that wat you get a bunch to put on the shelf. and then have another plate that can hold and locate on op 1 and do the rest. just 1-2 parts

Would the EK heatsinks respond to glass blasting the same way as the aluminium used here? Thinking for modders that want the EK design but not the overly-shiny default appearance.
Seriously? Seriously!? Those turned out way better than I could have imagined. The old ones look like painted plastic next to these ;-) Looking forward to seeing what you do to that poor, innocent 4000D. Especially after what you did to its big brother last time: Step 1, get case out of box. Step 2, take it to pieces and throw it all away :-D
Haha, this one will be less of a deconstruction I reckon, although who knows! I'm still designing it atm, so there are a lot of options available, I want it to be finished faster than normal though so that we can get back to Aquaceras ASAP.
Some more pc art work and skill show cased here. Still wondering if you be willing to share some of your acrylic work files with me from the 500d build.
Fantastic and soothing watch... love the custom work :-) looking forward to seeing how it turns out! Also the attention to detail is worth the wait please don't rush anything... quality over quantity always wins out!!
I often see you use theses small cubes with threads on each side, mainly to connect the panels of your cases. Where do you get these cubes from? ...how are they called? ...or do you manufacture them by yourself?
Since you mention making a more long term fixture plate...I know you're more considering it because it's a part you'd use again, but do you think items like these, certain distro plates for case mod projects inpopular cases, and your custom water cooling fittings are items that could be financially viable to sell at some point? I think there'd be some interest. Obviously it depends on how you'd be able to price them after material and machining costs, but you've put in all the work and they're extremely beautiful. You really create incredible bespoke artisan items and I think there's an opportunity there, most people in this hobby are prepared to pay a premium for water cooling components. Also I think that many of the people that want to support you would be inclined to buy a more expensive but truly unique item that reflects your skills, rather than a printed mug or tshirt. I know it's a big task, but I'd also really really love to see you tackle a DIY CNC build, maybe one specifically designed for production of certain staple items. Like, long and narrow format for space saving and more easily achievable rigidity, with ATC for automation. With your skills and attention to detail the result would be incredible, and you'd increase your production capacity for potential new revenues that take advantage of all the work you're already putting into these parts..
They’re on the pump bodies themselves, although not visible in the clips here yeah. I didn’t want to remove them from the originals since they’re a funky shape
Ironically just got a call from a company in the states. Previously they only had access to Datron as part of a quote system, as they didn’t have continuous stock. So the price today could be different from tomorrow. They now carry them in stock, so they have consistent pricing! Now to save up to buy some bits! 😂
@@bittech1 yeah you’re the one that put me onto them a little while ago...unfortunately living across the pond...they’re not easy to get. I was pretty giddy when I got the call telling me! Thanks for putting me onto them!
@@bittech1 first of all great project and very nice work! I think you should consider making a deal with Datron, for the tooling if not even for a Datron Neo or one of their other CNCs. I have a feeling they would be up for discussion if you advertised that you use their products (which honestly are some of the best high rpm cutters out there and work well even with less rigid machines). Alternatively there is also Firstattech, which is also very good (their Terrier chipbreaker is a beast for hogging out tons of material, tho you wont get the most out of it on your machine). If on the other end you want to DIY a more capable machine I would recommend looking into something like a PrintNC (easily customizable as the Fusion files are available, as well as fully parametric).
if you hate that radiatror, ill take it. i love the Barrow Chameleon. they are really cheap and for how cheap they are they are really well made. in terms of performance i couldnt see anything different from Bykski, Alphacool or EK radiators
The issue is it's literally broken. The thing fell apart as I was screwing it into the plate, the tank standoffs had been massively over-torqued in the factory, so they just sheared off.
Still haven't forgotten about this project. Lurking in the shadows. Patiently waiting for that sweet, sweet, notification to ring.
it's beautiful i've looked at this for five hours now
I love your entire workflow when it comes to acrylic, ends up like your machining ice! so cool
I know Im kind of off topic but does anybody know a good website to watch new movies online ?
@Kyson Pablo i dunno I use flixportal. You can find it on google:P -dakari
@Dakari Jamari Thank you, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I appreciate it!
@Kyson Pablo you are welcome :D
Bit-Tech, it’s been 10 months. We NEED Aquaceras. We don’t deserve it, but we NEED it. Please.
I guess that was a no.
AQUACERAS returns!
I love the work of this Guy :)
I was so pumped fot this episode !
Booooooo!

Any update on this build?
I wonder if watching these builds will ever get old for me. Great stuff
Nice design heatsinks, and quality workmanship. Well done.
good to see it back
It is really fantastic to see how accurately you do your work ... put the plastic plate on top and see that the tip goes flush with it ...
Great video, Happy to see this project is still in the works.
can't wait for an update!
This is the quality content we want
those pump housings look so nice, well done!

Still waiting for part 11 :(
Nice work, sorta looks like a VW log for the fan vents haha
can't unsee this now ;)
Beautiful machining! Can anyone please tell me the name of the song at 13:52?
song was legit! Sad no one has commented with the name yet
We have been waiting for this for a long time, but better late than never :)
Damn they came out looking SO good. Excited!
Always well worth the wait! Can't wait to see what magic you show us next
That was some nice CNCing Oo!!
Amazing work as always and love the song!
YES!!! I've been waiting for this forever.
Great job! Looking great. I'm curious about which end mill you're using to face off the heatsink fins around 14:40 ? Keep up the great work dude!
And another amazing video. Can't wait to see the final product. Your builds are just incredible
🐐 what an amazing machining job !! Incredible i struggle to get nice finishing on light cuts and stuff.. this is looking absolutely a piece of art !!
I love the way the aluminium looks to melt away like liquid metal during the time lapse shots.
I’ve always wondered how do you clean up after acrylic? That stuff must go everywhere. You appear to work in such a small space, and what you able to achieve is amazing! Would love to see you organisation suggestion and tips! Great work and video!
YEAHHHHH. Thx Sir. Finally AQUACERAS.
Stunning

I think...ekwb should hire you👌
Is there a way to order some of these? these are slick.
Wow!! Amazing!!
wow! what a nice look! i like it. sometimes i wish it could be easier to learn some more things! because i like Projekts different Themes.
Man those are gorgeous. Tell me you're going to sleeve those cables though.
Where do you stand on tumble-polishers for deburring and surface finishing parts?
Where do you get your frosted acrylic from?
super excited for the vid
where is part 11?
God, I love your work Maki. I still don't understand why people would down like a video like this except to try and be a troll
What is the performance of the milling machine's spindle?
These are incredible. You could cut the Bit-tech logo into them and sell them on the web store.
good lord that mustache gets even more glorious with every video.
I've been looking forward to seeing this starting again!!! I love the rad into the distro plate!! I wasn't going to mention wires. ;-) Excited to see the EKWB 3090 block! Is it the double sided one? =)
1:42 I'm trying to make my own distro plate but i don't know much about the bits so can someone tell me what this bit is?
I'm sad there does not appear to be part 11. :(
Any plans to make a sick itx build?
Do you anodise your aluminium or just glass blast it?
Ideally I would anodise, but for these parts they're just blasted and left since they don't need to be durable etc.
I liked it when the chips went weeeeee
Insane!
glad to be in the notification squad, the video isn't showing on my subs feed yet. just a quick 'YAY!' while 4K buffers, brightness up to max, now to sear this symphony of beauty into my retinas! :-D
What's the dope music you used for the last showcase?

One question
Is that a ER11 or a ER16 that your spindler have?
Mine’s ER11
@@bittech1 damit
had found the perfect tool for remoning a lot of material quickly and easily but it only fit's / works with a ER16
hmm is it one of those where you can take the ER holderpart out by a alen bolt on the side ?
since i found this tool witch i fought it would be perfect for you to cut down your roughing time with removing a lot from like a pucked but i didnt know witch ER size your machine has
www.taiwantrade.com/product/ergo-12-16-20-25-32mm-integreated-er16-taper-shank-milling-cutter-2116311.html
Is there a budget way to get into cnc milling? I'd love to be able to do stuff like this but I don't think I can afford a machine.
If you got a 3d printer there is the PrintNC which you could diy for round 1500-2000$. A far more capable machine than what BitTech has.
yesssss its back!!!!
Did this project ever get any further? it looks epic so far and has inspired me to start playing with fusion 360
Watercool are working on new rads to be released soon, with multiple colors / finishes. Might be worth looking into.
Great video! What is the thing you use to hold the part on the second operation? It looks like it has an eccentric bolt head that clamps the piece
They're Mitee Bite fixture clamps
you'r amazing man
Why dont you use the drillpress to do some work on the inside
It makes me sick that US youtube product reviewers have 3m subscribers and this guy has more talent in his mustache yet only has 100k
So true! We need to promote this with thumbs up
Would the EK heatsinks respond to glass blasting the same way as the aluminium used here? Thinking for modders that want the EK design but not the overly-shiny default appearance.
it's great
Hello, I have a question .
could you tell me what this clamping device is called and where i can buy it.
Many Thanks
i love this
YES
bit-tech what's about this project, still in progress?
Craftsman!!
Seriously? Seriously!? Those turned out way better than I could have imagined. The old ones look like painted plastic next to these ;-)

What case you are using please

Ahhh, I've been waiting!~
I bit my tongue and waited till the end of the video before commenting on the pump wires, lol... ;-)
Those wired are enough to trigger anybody haha
WHERE'S THE NEXT VIDEO!?!?!?!? I NEEEEEEED ITTTT!!!!!
I often see you use theses small cubes with threads on each side, mainly to connect the panels of your cases. Where do you get these cubes from? ...how are they called? ...or do you manufacture them by yourself?
