Bit of trouble keeping a straight face there? heheh
It's even way better if you lower down the speed.
Dang it, 4 years late :)
05:09 leave me alone mom im straightening tubes
Lol, your tube isn't straight.
I need a tube straightener like that for my ... pipe.
E SC I lol'd
E SC [Lewdness intensifies]
JAJAJAJAJJA XDDDDDDDDD
Pro tip from an HVAC tech: take the whole roll of tubing and lay it down on the table and unroll it down the table. You will have more torque on the pipe to make those straight lines. Then use your roller tool to get completely straight of you're a perfectionist
LOL "its a little hard getting it started but once you get it started it just a simple back and forth motion" oh yeah man you straighten that pie real nice like LMAO
what was the point of using copper if they just painted over it?
what paint?
GooberSuess thermal conductivity ?
mick fine No.
You paint copper because of oxidation, like liberty and old copper roofs goes green.
Andri Andrason They didn't paint it - they powder coated it. There's a difference.
Just ask Apple about how to do this, they sure know a thing or two about bending metal..
sure, they will teach you how to bend automatically without any force
No need for bending tools, just put it in your pocket for a while
Steve-O Scar3ace
Might get you a date too.
Steve-O Scar3ace I have an iPhone 6 plus and the 6 without the plus non of them bend in my pocket that's just that a guy made a video bending it with his hands, bending on the pocket is just a joke.
Flamur iHp you make it look like you didn't realise that he was joking...
I just noticed after the second time watching through that the guy demonstrating has heterochromia (both eyes are different colors).
I noticed that 3.5 mins in. Came down to the comments to see if anyone else noticed.
BAM5 he's a reptillian ;b
DB is a freak of nature, like Dan Akroyd. Should ask Richard if he also has webbed toes.
dam i didnt know that was a thing. i thought heterochromia meant he dont like straight men.
I can't wait for the next one. I've been wanting to light up the inside of my Fractal Design R4 Windowed Blackout edition but was never sure the best way to get it done.
Very cool showcase of the tools, I am definitely going to mill out a bender and straightener from my cnc machine when I build my next computer
You guys do some beautiful work. Thank you for sharing.
Amazing piece of kit them pipe benders. And way cool build too.
linus needed this
+♛ Eagle ♛ He's a tard.
Myke Prior lmao
he straight up climbed a tree filled it with sugar and wrapped it around a coffee jar. lol
Bought a bending tool for arround 20$ and it worked. Lol. Thank you for the tutorial :)
Thanks! I used this guide to water cool my AMD R9 380X!
Awesome video, more like this please
Nice results, I think it's a good job bending, installing and painting the Copper tube.
I don't know exactly if copper is overkilling for this use, tipically copper is used for high pressure (between 20 psi and 400 psi), zero reaction with the refrigerant or fluid and killing bacteria
"Obviously I'm a beefcake, I could do this by hand..."
Possibly my favorite line in this series
Darth is the MAN!
Nice video great info. I’ve worked with soft copper before really easy to work with. I would like to see a tutorial on how to bend Hard Copper pipes .
Thanks. Always wondered how people bend those copper tubes.
Guy has Heterochromia in case anyone is wondering with the eyes.
6:28 that look ,lolo....
+Liangshi Xu ya
+Liangshi Xu yeah lol..... Looks like he has had a little too much practice on that motion, not to forget the look in his eyes as he gets it in! lol
hahaha, i noticed too XD
He had to work hard not to smile there. :P
Hard work but really pleasant results, i would love to do that on my next year build... As for now i'm gonna keep my air cooling budget tight system...
Copper Pipe make liquid cooling even cooler !!! Awesome !!!
yesss love this!
kinda looks nice with the copper tubing, but I'd probably mix it up a little and use flexible tubing in there in some areas also so you can see if it's all flowing good in there when it's running.
LinusTechTips could have used this in scrapyard wars2
Who needs the right tool for the job when you have a tree !
Bento San and salt
Evan Erickson because salt is good for inhibiting corrosion
+montygo LTT are just PNP kids, they cant DIY something more than drill hole...
What does the Peruvian nationalist party have to do with copper tubes and DIY?
Great tips for my next Ryzen - Radeon build.
if you want the copper color and to stay shiny for quite awhile spray varnish on it.
its good up to 200f and provides some electrical resistance.
and.. they powder coated it...
Linus needed this video.
POWERFUL
TIL that there actually is a tool that straightens copper pipe. Great ! :D
I'd recommend straightening out the pipe before cutting it. This way you don't have 2 ends that are difficult to straighten by hand, and also, the cutter is less likely to walk on you.
..Or don't powder coat it at all? You'd get the same oxidation color layer as some domes on old buildings, which could look pretty neat. And after it formed, it actually protects the tube then after, as well as can do powder coating (and nicer, if most of the rest is black for instance - and I'll never, EVER limit my color pallet to NVIDIA's green/lime stuff, this is my build of my own taste not theirs).
Personally a matching lime-green powder coat on the tubing would look a lot better than black. It would add more aestheticism to the build instead of making the cooling system look moreso like just another feature. Also, I would only use 90 degree angles, but it's all preference.
I will trade you my soul for the desktop you modified. I've been dreaming for one of these for 5 years now.
J J Even with a job, still too poor
Tube straightener and tube bender alone I spent 290 bucks. Gonna try and return them once I'm done lol
Proper plumbers toolkit.
I'm a plumber
Lucky me XD
Just need the straightener!
Leona197 us plumbers bend tubing all day and our ridged tools don't cost that much 😂
Fill it with sand and use your knee
should have bought straight tubing,
I am going to use this advice to build my *FULL AMD PC BUILD*
The one thing I really dont like with most water cooled builds is when poeple (especially using rigid pipe) but a diagonal peice going straight from thing to another, in my opinion it would look better (and not take much longer) to put a bend in it make look a lot better
Chris Millar I agree, the weird diagonal copper tubing doesn't look right. Just do a few 90 degree bends
Chris Millar that's how an old time plumber does bends ,if they are , what we call , show pieces. In other words visible to passerby's.
every bend increases resistance in the water flow.
Jeremiah Johnson usually , us old dirty plumbers use a log type table to verify resistant / cavitation / velocity issues with FU demand pressure , velocity , resistance by number of fittings and degrees of each fitting, all related to pipe size and incoming pressure.
In the desktop computer typically its of no appreciable value.
+texasdee slinglead this water isn't under extreme pressure it's pushed by a small pump less bends the better. if it doesn't matter why even de-burr the inside of the pipes. just use 1/8" coiled tubing and make the biggest spiral slinky you can fit into the case. these are tech nerds who want the best performance, hence the water cooling in the first place. nobody would make it less efficient knowingly
Why would you use a specific or dedicated water cooling type of fitting with a o ring that type of device is prone to leaking anyway , at least in my trade , instead of either a standard brass compression fitting with a compression ring (brass) or simply just using type m rigid tubing instead of soft copper and just soldering fittings together? I'm sure there has to be a way to remove any left over flux from inside the pipe. Then maybe have it nickel plated or something. Just asking cause I'm going to be doing a custom water loop soon and I'm a commercial plumber. thanks for your replies in advance.
Cool!
Use the force
What do i need to do... to get you guys to deliver that to my home!
I got these cheeseburgers maaaan!
I've seen some folks using the bending rods with brass and copper tubing. Do you ever do this to avoid flattening the tube?
Holy cow , if an apprentice showed up on the job with a tubing straightener , I'd have a really good long lesson session for the rest of the damn day on how plumbers straighten tubing , using a very flat surface . mother of goodness , call a plumber , give em dinner and a few beers and your p.c. would look rad as heck. And no ridiculously over priced yuppy tools.
that glance at 6:27 says it all
lol @6:27 you have a hard time hiding your smile
Damn. I'm using copper for my next water cooling build. May even leave it unfinished/just with a clear coat.
He didnt have to look at the camera like that @ 6:27 😂😂
You know you liked it. ;)
Would working with nickel plated copper tubes be any different, or would the same tools and techniques work? I think it could be cool to have all the blocks AND tubes be nickel plated.
what are the thermal pros/cons of using copper over plastic?
i get that it will definetly help dissipate heat but what about corrosion or some hidden factors idk tell me!
looks sick and if its clearly superior to accrylic i think ill use it on my next build :)
capitangoldfish I don't think corrosion would be a problem if your loop is full copper and you use good coolant.
Very nice. might give this a go on my next build. Pretty cheap to do this actually. Though i'm planning on doing a high gloss chrome mirror finish. Any one have any suggestions for the best possible chrome paints? spaz stix or otherwise. Will be using the black high gloss base.
You might be better off getting it chrome plated instead. Sure it'll be more expensive in the end, but you'll probably like the result more.
Why use copper if you are going to paint it? just to make the liquid conductive overtime?
the thing is, whatever you do, your fluid will get conductive within the first 48 hours. no matter what fittings, tubing and coolant you use.
Awesome job. That straightener ever need lubed up? ;-p
What size copper pipe did you use? 1/4" or 1/2" Dia? or was it another size?
Were the copper tube ends block or stuffed prior to powder coating?
What size tubing and fittings did you use to do this!?!? I can't source/find this anywhere!?
the copper pipe would soak up heat? it's copper after all i wonder if that could improve liquid temps albeit a little?
thanks now i am to use that on amd cpu and card
if you need to make very tight bends fill tube with salt. it will prevent kinking. then rinse the tube
How many takes do you think it took him to not laugh when he said make a continual back and forth motion when he was straightening the tube?
+ulikemycat baby lol i definitely saw a little smirk there
ulikemycat baby he licked his lips too lol
Linus saw this and went hmmm I could do a whole room.
What is the optimal wall thickness for a 12mm pipe or 1/2 inch pipe. They always come out too flat or kinked on the bends and I do have a good Ridgid bender (used though).
ccricers : most 12mm pipe I've seen as a wall thickness of 0.6mm, which gives you a Wall Factor of 20. With a Wall Factor that high, you're unlikely to be able to a bend tighter than 3D (3 x diameter), so if you're kinked then I'd suggest your bender's bend radius is less than 36mm.
That smile at 6:28 tells exactly what u were thinking
... is he wearing contacts or are his eyes naturally like that? either way thats awesome!
Where can buy compatible copper tubing? Or is any hardware store stuff good?
What did they coat it with at the end o.o sorry im a total noob when it comes to this stuff
Hi, does anyone know how to bend flat copper pipes?
I understand I'd have to stuff the flat copper pipes with, like, fine sand so that kinks won't form when bending. But is there a specific tool to bend flat copper pipes with?
whats the size of pipe used in here or its inner and outer diameter?
Very nice, only thing tubing should be done by 90° all the way up! Those non-90° bends doesn't look as perfect as they could be.
I want some transparent aluminum tubing!
What make is the pipe bender, where can I buy one from ?
you take exceptional fantastic looking copper tubing and ... paint it?
I've heard about stories about people stealing wires to sell the copper in them.
I can't fathom how expensive this would be.
What grade tubing was used K, L, or M. or what was the wall thickness of the tubing.
+Doctor Death The pressure in a computer water cooling rig is so little that it won't matter. K or M is more money conscious
6:28 is the face of a man trying so hard not to laugh...
What are the dimensions of the ID and OD of the copper tubes and the fittings?
Does the powder coating negatively impact the passive cooling of the copper tubing? Or are the temperature differences negligible?
the surface on the actual radiator is bigger than the surface on the tubes by such a big factor that the heat radiated from the tube is totally insignificant.
Excuse me but, someone can tell me how called these transparent cylinders with spirals inside them? And what is this? Some kind of heat exchangers?
#bendgate
Hi where can you buy such a pliers? please a link for that
now i wish to have bender from futurama
Very well done not making the use of the straightener tool seem... well... you know
Nice shirt.
please could someone give some links to somewhere i get the straightener and bender?
inb4 one of the waterblocks/radiators is made of aluminum and it all corrodes.
The blocks are nickel-plated copper and the radiators are copper and brass. No corrosion worries at all. :)
This is old news that doesn't happen any more.
If the blocks and fittings are anodised (which all are, or should be by now) then bare copper has no problem.
The liquid you should be using would have non corrosive properties or if not, then a thin layer of rust will form on the copper which would stop the reaction.
Can be attached a turbo and a loud muffler?
6:27 - Is that a smirk I see? XD
That moment when you realize that no one else thinks it's as funny as you do lol
6:25 Hue hue hue hue hue hue hue hue...
nice vid, but please use a stabilizer for your cam.
What diameter tubing was used for this?
Wonder how much this pc is going to coast in the end?
something about his eyes when he says back & forth motion. he's definitely thinking of something 'u know what'
wow the difference after the powdercoat
I probably would have capped off the ends before powder coating, the inside is just gonna get a light dusting that will just flake off over time an burn out a pump or look horrible in a res.
What size is the coiled copper tubing?
Unbent glass tubing with black anodized/nickel plated joints is where it's at.
The music at 7:58 is "A Little Touch" by Casey Dunmore. Found it on iTunes on Electro Score... seems like an album of short electronic music for video work.
What song is that at 6:41?
Will this work with my AMD?
Would have looked amazing in green
