How To Plan a Hardline Water-Cooling Loop | bit-tech Modding

Ғылым және технология

Hardline tubing looks fantastic, but you need to be very precise with your measurements, bends, and cuts. And that requires planning. Thankfully, it's not as difficult as you might think - check out this simple method using everybody's favourite childhood friend: pipe cleaners!

    Pipe cleaners are a great idea thank you for that. But to improve it I use stiff copper electical wire (around 3-4 mm thick) Way more stiff, thus easier to work with.

    Do it in Cad :D. Watercooling: where you need to know chemistry to know coolant and tube compatibility and avoiding galvanic corrosion, CAD for making a project, physics for reservoir mounting location, manual skills for heating/bending tubes, interior design for making the loop look good, patience of a budist monk for the project, specialized tools and it can still go terribly wrong. Do we do this just because we like the challenge? :D

    This applies to Modded Water Cooling, yes. Regular Watercooling lacks the interior design, CAD, Tool, physics and chemistry part. If you do it like most of the other people you're good.

    Hello! How do you get so precise dimensions in order to prepare the CAD 3D drawing? For example, if you buy a new computer case and you plan to draw it in 3D, how you manage to get all the dimensions? Do you do that manually? Thanks!

  • @Erowens98

    You could laser scan it if you really go hard. But most people just grab an accurate measuring ruler, a pair of calipers, and an angle gauge. Then grab the dimensions of the case manually. If you don't have the case you can also work with sketch pictures which contain dimensions you can reference scale from. Those can often be found on the cases web page.

    It's on the tables for sure. It's quite a specific thing so some extra thought will have to be put into it, but it could be a good move. A number of upcoming videos will feature quite a few machined parts, where CAD/CAM is essential, so it makes sense to get everybody involved in the process :D

  • @gwot

    this is exactly a "how to", he taught you "how to plan", how is that not a how to? A "tips and tricks" is "take two pipe cleaners and twine them together to make them a little bit stiffer" As he mentioned about functionality "how easy is it going to fill to drain and to bleed" that's detail, yeah no examples, but it's pretty common sense to me. Plan a drain at the lowest point, avoid a lot of bends and loops for easier bleed and drain, fill hole be accessible, pump receiving ample water from the reservoir, common sense. and he didn't need to even say that, this is a "how to plan" not a "what to plan for" video.
