@@shaun4bigblocksllc, I would say that is a big no, though I understand your point. Proper tools allow for far more consistency and a better finish to your work, but it doesn't magically make it easy for just anyone to do a job. Skills are required in any case. I can carve something out of wood with a butter knife, the finish will be poor and it will be very difficult and time intensive... when I could have just used proper sharp/shaped carving tools. The real skill would be the carving, not making things needlessly difficult.
@Destro I work in power electronics. We build large power converters and use zip ties almost exclusively for cable management. This is entirely because our equipment is often subjected to environments with a lot of shaking and vibration. Wires have to be really secure so that they can't vibrate, wear through their insulation, and short out. It's especially important given that we're talking voltages up to 1000vdc. Unsecured wires can literally cause fires lol. My point was that zip ties are very much a professional tool. They're just not optimal for applications like ethernet runs where the wires are stationary, the voltages are low, and they need to be easily disassembled.

3 Steps to avoid having to lower spindle speed: 1. Reduce depth of cut, using proper feeds 2. Reduce the tool diameter, use the depth of cut you wanted. 3. Use stronger tool on the first pass, then use a second pass with the tool form you wanted. If that all fails: 4. Outsource it? 5. Redesign it? 6. Make this specific video.

Linus: "Theres the power supply. We're not going to touch or go anywhere near it, actually." *later* Also Linus: "Alright so I think what we need to do is turn on the power supply and start probing."
Well, it's probing with the correct tools, with something thats made for it, not just sticking some metal in there and accidentally smacking a capacitor. He needed to for powering the pump, didn't know he would at the beginning, but once he did he used the right tools. :|
@@ninjanippledog725 its important to know he did not probe on the 110V AC side. that would have propably killed the multimeter. he probed on the 12v side AFTER the PSU.
@@Savinmoneyforparts, eh, even cheap meters can read mains voltage safely... if you probe correctly. He apparently had it in current mode, which is bad since current probing tries to be as close to a short as possible to not affect the measurement, but apparently it had overcurrent protection. The issue I have is that the power supply is designed for a specific load, and I don't think they measured the watts pulled by the fan and pump to make sure the power supply can handle it, let's hope the engineers put in a good margin for the parts.
@@JimBob1937 yes, I know how to measure Voltage and current. And you are right. with the right input it is safe. but i really wouldn't want anyone foreign to electronics come anywhere near 230v 16amps or over 50V for that matter in general. especially not AC-

@No Akomplice dude you just sound like a pathetic jealous idiot, calm down, take a second and pick you dummy back up off the floor.

@No Akomplice, he did a fairly competent job measuring and recreating the board and mounting holes in CAD software as well as getting basic CNC routing done. The issue more so stems from lacking the proper tools I think, but as mentioned, the cost of tools can quickly add up. If you feel like he is being lazy, please explain where, I see no laziness per se, just lacking proper tools and time constraints. There is no doubt they could do better in a lot of their DIY projects, but they're not engineers. I also suspect, just like Jake, that part of their DIY video charm is actually because they're non-engineers trying to produce things usually done by engineers. This average joe approach likely gets them more views, and I wouldn't be surprised if they purposely play into that role.

Anybody that has had one of these machines in a development room will know that this thing could definitely be helpful. Servers and server grade equipment have a tendency to migrate to development desks after all.
You guys should really consider pressure testing these in-house made water loops for future builds.. rather than "wait and see" to see if any leaks develop over time, just get an automotive hose pressure tester or any hand pump really, fill your loop or component with fluid, and give it a couple psi and see if any water seeps out from any of the fittings or o-rings. if it can stand up to not leaking while under pressure, then you know it will have zero issues while under less pressure during normal operation.
Even tho I agree to some point a pressured system can have no leaks and when there's only flow and low pressure it can leak. Most rubber seals need pressure to seal be it by the mounting or the fluid. A o'ring for example can seal at pressure and if the mounting is not thigh enough it will let fluid trough at lesser pressure.
A better idea would be something like the Dr Drop pressure tester where you don't even put water in. You just assemble your loop, attach the pressure gauge and use the pump to put in some pressure. Leave it for a bit and if the pressure remains stable then your loop is good to go. You may need to google to find the kit in stock though and to get a better price (I have seen the kit costing anywhere from $25AUD to $200+). I did look at making my own for testing my own loops but either I overengineered my tester or the maker of the prebuilt kit is getting a volume discount for parts as my kit was costing about double to triple the cost of the prebuilt. :\ www.singularitycomputers.com/shop/tools-2/dr-drop-pressure-tester-w-air-pump/

Thank you for reminding that physics and mechanical engineering are part of everything we use everyday ! Linus you are a perfect example of what a great entrepreneur is !
Alex's hair is more impressive than any $60k pc or entire watercooled room. Edit: the fact that it worked and actually works BETTER now is pretty impressive (read: surprising) too though.
I think Linus and Co. may be onto something here. I know I am tone deaf after years of living a chained hermit life in a data center. This idea could save the hearing health of many people if applied (with more engineering/design) to infrastructure systems. Good job guys. :-)
Us building engineers are with you being stuck in machine rooms around huge pumps and walk in air handlers. I mean technically the building I work in is water cooled (scroll chillers) it's still deafening due to how large fan engineering and hvac in general has not changed in 40 years. With some modern engineering put into fans and large motors I'm sure they could make systems much quieter and efficient. But less R&D = more profit.
Custom molded ear plugs are your savior. You can find some that reduce about 28dB and can double duty for stuff like concerts if you get musicians plugs.
Linus, mills and lathes are expensive when you buy them new. You should never buy them new unless you're a metalworking shop (and a lot of them don't even buy them new).
If you want a decent CNC they simply are going to be expensive. The used machines are either good and still expensive or they are old junk and are relatively still expensive. Mills in my shop are still 100k. They still are not anything special being they are a haas which are the cheaper side of something decent.
@@orangerider2827 well buy an simple and small mill and a cnc conversion kit and and it would cost way less than 100k And LTT doesn't need a movement over X500mm Y400mm Z100mm a big hobby mill with cnc kit is completely sufficient and cost new around 3k well it is a stack of money but even a private person could afford some thing like that
@@TheLtVoss While true in the States, I do wonder about how available they are in the frozen north. Sure, I can go down the street and pick up a fully functional used Bridgeport for ~2k that doesn't mean they are available in Canada for that price.
@@TheLtVoss yes then you have a non decent mill. If you are buying a manual and planning on converting it your better off with just buying a nice Bridgeport with a digital read out. The manual machines are not tight enough to hold any kind of precision with a cnc conversion. Not that the assembled router that they have is anyways. You want something decent that you can achieve a nice water block isnt going to be done on shotty equipment. Their is a reason some people are machinists and some people are hobbyists. Also have you priced a CNC conversion kit your not buying a new kit and a used mill for 3k. You would have at least 15k in it. Then still have all the problems I've mentioned above. My shop used to have such a machine simply couldnt keep up tolerance wise and no tool changer was a deal breaker now it sits out back under a tarp. Its junk cant sell it for the reason nobody wants it.
@@orangerider2827 I have learned machining on really old mills and same converted and man 0,005 mm was the highest tolerance for an +50 years old machine is still gread it is just maintenance of the bearings And over here in Europe these machines a a still expensive because they they just need same love and cann do the same stuff like ur 100k cnc center (beside automated tool switching) and precision and work under tolerance of 0.001 mm is bull shit because the heat u putt in the workpiece even with cooling And theses hobby mills (not the cheap shity ones) Ar the same on precision they a just too small for the most shops
I operate CNC routers primarily for PCB and fiberglass cuts, routing copper is a pain in the ass some times, good job guys! love watching these build videos.
@starshipeleven but....it's in a server room... Also, they could have just put sole 140mm fans on top of the case instead of the 2x 40m. It would just like this not be 1U but dead silent too.
Whole room water cooling with the rad hanging out the bathroom window 😂 then the radiant heat from the copper turned the room into a sauna. Ahhhhh the good old days
The internal rj45 jack is used for stack linking, instead of connecting a cable from one to another, if special ordered you just stack to connect and they are mostly used in medium to large data centres.

They are def not brothers. But yes I was thinking the same thing. Or that linus is just a super lax boss. That said id still kill to work there even with the farts... You guys need a mechanical engineer that would volunteer?
Looking at the custom copper on the board, this beast looks legit. It's not a project that anyone is likely to copy but I'm happy as hell to see it work!
the lesson here is that if you start incompetently enough you have a lot of headspace for gradual improvement without ever being required to actually do it properly
One suggestion for the future: can you flip the footage for the overhead view so we can see your perspective? It’s a bit difficult to track when from the other way around
Look at how fast these DIYs are improving with Alex heading them! That internal work was so clean!
Yeah, they don't have the proper tools yet, but it's way better than it used to be.

Linus: Oh hey that seems really loud you need it water cooled don't you
let's watercool a hard drive #Watercool everything
Interviewer: so tell me something interesting about your last position.
Alex: once i watercooled a network switch
Interviewer: wat?
Alex: wat?
indeed

Replace "network switch" with "scientific calculator".
@@higihups done
Considering that he used to be into competitive dune buggy making. This sounds very tame.
Thank you for reminding that physics and mechanical engineering are part of everything we use everyday ! Linus you are a perfect example of what a great entrepreneur is !
_So you telling me...... these people water-cooled the internet?_
*_I See_*

‘demagnetised by stephen hawking himself’
Alex's hair is more impressive than any $60k pc or entire watercooled room.
Edit: the fact that it worked and actually works BETTER now is pretty impressive (read: surprising) too though.
well they turned a 1U switch to a ... 4 U i guess ? wich also need yearly maintenance.
but yeah it's the first silent 10Gbit switch in the world
This is probably one of the most unnecessary yet best mod on a piece of gear that Linus has ever done. I'm actually impressed.
you did hear how loud it was to begin with?
Agreed out side of industry, I think this has to me the best kinda home gamer build like this.
The drill press would do this perfectly
Five seconds later:
What’s this? Oh, the drill press messed up.
This is hands down the coolest video you guys have done. More of ACW please (Alex Custom Works)
*LTT:* We watercool EVERYTHING!
And never actually finish
or is it WWE
They gonna water cool the mouse to now??
watercool pre-order hype?
And add RGB to everything
I think Linus and Co. may be onto something here. I know I am tone deaf after years of living a chained hermit life in a data center. This idea could save the hearing health of many people if applied (with more engineering/design) to infrastructure systems. Good job guys. :-)
Us building engineers are with you being stuck in machine rooms around huge pumps and walk in air handlers.
I mean technically the building I work in is water cooled (scroll chillers) it's still deafening due to how large fan engineering and hvac in general has not changed in 40 years.
With some modern engineering put into fans and large motors I'm sure they could make systems much quieter and efficient. But less R&D = more profit.
Custom molded ear plugs are your savior. You can find some that reduce about 28dB and can double duty for stuff like concerts if you get musicians plugs.
Whole server room water cooling!
Some quality earmuffs go a long way. We use 3M Peltors and they're pretty dang effective.
But when it breaks, is it IT or CE's fault?
-"does it work faster?"
-"nope!"
yea I don't understand the point of this video
@@runninggames771 you must be new to the channel
@@skolarii I've been watching sense 2010 fucking dickhead
runninggames771 if you were watching since 2010 I’d like to think y out wouldn’t be so offended by that comment
@@runninggames771 to reduce all the fan noise obviously
Linus, mills and lathes are expensive when you buy them new.
You should never buy them new unless you're a metalworking shop (and a lot of them don't even buy them new).
If you want a decent CNC they simply are going to be expensive. The used machines are either good and still expensive or they are old junk and are relatively still expensive. Mills in my shop are still 100k. They still are not anything special being they are a haas which are the cheaper side of something decent.
@@orangerider2827 well buy an simple and small mill and a cnc conversion kit and and it would cost way less than 100k
And LTT doesn't need a movement over X500mm Y400mm Z100mm
a big hobby mill with cnc kit is completely sufficient and cost new around 3k well it is a stack of money but even a private person could afford some thing like that
@@TheLtVoss While true in the States, I do wonder about how available they are in the frozen north. Sure, I can go down the street and pick up a fully functional used Bridgeport for ~2k that doesn't mean they are available in Canada for that price.
@@TheLtVoss yes then you have a non decent mill. If you are buying a manual and planning on converting it your better off with just buying a nice Bridgeport with a digital read out. The manual machines are not tight enough to hold any kind of precision with a cnc conversion. Not that the assembled router that they have is anyways. You want something decent that you can achieve a nice water block isnt going to be done on shotty equipment. Their is a reason some people are machinists and some people are hobbyists. Also have you priced a CNC conversion kit your not buying a new kit and a used mill for 3k. You would have at least 15k in it. Then still have all the problems I've mentioned above. My shop used to have such a machine simply couldnt keep up tolerance wise and no tool changer was a deal breaker now it sits out back under a tarp. Its junk cant sell it for the reason nobody wants it.
@@orangerider2827 I have learned machining on really old mills and same converted and man 0,005 mm was the highest tolerance for an +50 years old machine is still gread it is just maintenance of the bearings
And over here in Europe these machines a a still expensive because they they just need same love and cann do the same stuff like ur 100k cnc center (beside automated tool switching) and precision and work under tolerance of 0.001 mm is bull shit because the heat u putt in the workpiece even with cooling
And theses hobby mills (not the cheap shity ones) Ar the same on precision they a just too small for the most shops
I operate CNC routers primarily for PCB and fiberglass cuts, routing copper is a pain in the ass some times, good job guys! love watching these build videos.
Hardware:works absolutely fine
Linus:ok lets water cool it 😂🤣
@starshipeleven but....it's in a server room... Also, they could have just put sole 140mm fans on top of the case instead of the 2x 40m. It would just like this not be 1U but dead silent too.
@@Chadok89 I think they said this switch was for a room they're actively working in, since they need 10 Gigabit connectivity there.
starshipeleven lol or just have better airflow
@starshipeleven A 140mm on top is enough. Not because they have to, but because they can, and it's cool 😎
@starshipeleven absolute true^^
3:54 "Keep it 1u mountable"
RIP
And this is why LTT needs a big staff: to keep making great vids!
I remember the days of the water cooling attempt in the old house/office.
Whole room water cooling with the rad hanging out the bathroom window 😂 then the radiant heat from the copper turned the room into a sauna. Ahhhhh the good old days
Next: Water Cooling a calculator, then adding some RGB to it!
A 1980s pocket calculator.
There was a facebook post of their page about an email to Alex about overclocking a TI-83.
theyd find a way
you were right LMAO they’re water cooling a calculator now
they actually did it. today there is their youtube short clip
The internal rj45 jack is used for stack linking, instead of connecting a cable from one to another, if special ordered you just stack to connect and they are mostly used in medium to large data centres.
How was Ave not called in? I heard Mill and was expecting the cut scene to him.
Would have been the best collaboration of all time.
Ryan Witkowski And he's JUST been machining copper!
Complete with a Cockford Ollie plaque on it.
I mean they are both Canadian
Immediately what came to my mind and further reinforced when Linus said "schmoo"
They have tried to colab with AvE a few times, he just never even responds to LMG haha
My mom always told me to go in straight.
What?
If you don't you're gonna get a broken pepe and you're gonna have a bad time.
Linux meta videos. We need lots of switches and servers to hold all the videos we make about needing more switches and servers. Goto 1.
Looking back at this video makes me rly impressed w/ their new workshop & how far they've come in 5yrs
LTT - bringing backwoods engineering to even the most precision designed hardware. Well played guys. LMFAO
Seeing Linus with side cutters is giving me flashbacks to drilling through motherboards.
14:32 Oh no.
Man you guys are totally worth every single view and even more...truly love these signature ltt content dude...keep up the good work man!!
Anyone else actually paying attention to how good of a boss Linus actually is. Like the way he talks to his employees is just so nice and complimenting them a lot. It isn't just this, but for example 12:54 in this vid.
I read this as “nintendo Switch” and was interested
Same
Yup

To fix ur reservoir(e) u should of used flex tape just to meme-ify ur cnc machine.
Employer: Can we have this Paper like them ?
Linus: No.
Me: Well, a disassembled 8K Red Camera is a better Value :D
Didn't you mean employee?
Nice work, don't act so surprised you made something halfway legit lol your tech skills have been improving. Good work Alex.

First look at the title....
Water cooling on a Nintendo Switch?!?
Right? I got bamboozled.
Yeah I thought it was an April's fools video haha

i also thought it said *nintendo* at first.

Linus: lets just Water cool S***
(Innovation and ingenuity at its finest)
You guys should do more stuff this informal and fun/janky, this has to be the best episode I've seen as of late, and everyone on the crew seems to have some fun watching the carnage too
I love the ratio that all of LTT videos are filmed in, works great on taller phones :)
Works good on a 40 inch tv too

his card stock is amazing! can we get some of this?
linus "No"
such a great work on the inside .... and no slow zoomed in camera shoots just fast and blurry once again...
You have to be really confident to ask if your boss farted😂😂 17:54
Jajajjajaja, I don't know why, but something tell me that they're brothers
They are def not brothers. But yes I was thinking the same thing. Or that linus is just a super lax boss. That said id still kill to work there even with the farts... You guys need a mechanical engineer that would volunteer?
@@Dom-I-NATE they were hiring some time ago.. i really want to work under linus too
My dyslexic ass thought the title said "Water Cooling a Nintendo Switch!" I'm now hoping this is a real thing soon.
Wait me too

This was pretty sweet, neat to see the entire design process to implementation.
I just learned that "Canadian engineering" can be applied to anything that looks dodgy a.f.
@No Akomplice did you just run through this whole comment section to shit on alex? What happened? Did you apply for the same job and didn't get it?
No Akomplice you okay? I see you everywhere talking about him
It's like the reverse of German engineering lol
How many years until Linus makes a 100% water cooled setup? Watercooled PC, Monitor, speakers, keyboard, router all on the same loop.
I would love for him to do that full room water cooling again.

@@SquadzzZHD
Mmmhm, hence why I said again. I thought it was a cool project that didnt get a fair shake
speaker?
It ain't complete until your ballsack is watercooled so you always get optimal temps for spreading your gamer DNA.
Looking at the custom copper on the board, this beast looks legit. It's not a project that anyone is likely to copy but I'm happy as hell to see it work!
I like how Linus was like a kid in his dad's garage for most of the shop section
"This is getting more legit with every video"
*2 seconds later*
"This is leaking"
"Yup"
the lesson here is that if you start incompetently enough you have a lot of headspace for gradual improvement without ever being required to actually do it properly
Drills into the pcb: JayzTwoCents wants to know your location
Best video in a looooong time :) Keep going that manufacturing stuff :) And please buy a mill... it is really cheap compared to that cnc machine ;)
I appreciate your effort for actually reading a paper for this
a crazy LTT water cooling project that didnt end in failure?! What is this JayzTwocents?

Next up water cooling the staff
Watercooling water
@Tate Daniels i want that
One suggestion for the future: can you flip the footage for the overhead view so we can see your perspective? It’s a bit difficult to track when from the other way around
6:20 now I know 100 percent that Alex is an engineer now I know he is one of us xD
16:26 Linus is just showing off his fancy TITANIUM scissors
