Ham's SS Build Log **56k**

Copper is expensive and hard to get hold of here. I stumbles accross a very neat little website that provided this, and probably most of the metal i will use form now on. This little lump alone cost me the wrong side of £17, but £5 of that was postage.

Im looking into getting more so if anyone is hooked up for copper and can get lumps cut then please let me know:wavey:

Im thinking a load tester would benifit both my phase work and reveiws...

And thanks too all for the supporting comments:)
 
Its that time of year again! When i get up off my fat ass and manage too make some progress. One finished evap!

Managed to screw the gaps in the steps up a bit, but as log as it works, its only my 1st one.

Just gota braze her up now.

Will be puting in an order for a vac pump later today to stop me splurging my saved money on another computer component.

Cheers..for now.
 
Well then you'll be pleased too hear the pumps been ordered (at loooooong last) and propane tank should be filled with in the next week or so :).
 
Ive got a 7kg bottle of propane too fill up, then ill be onto it.

Should be able too get it done tomorrow with a bit of luck.
 
Heh, this thing an't going near my c2d...

Ive got a cellery 2.6 northwood to torture:D. I does 3ghz on air, im hoping that its not the mobo holding it back. Via chipset:(

Everything sitting about next too the work shop in the sun before i brazed the evap. Missing a few things but most of it is there. And for the people who spot it the PSU is too run the fan on the condenser. Which it turns out i didn't need tooday.

Here you can see the lot hooked up too the vac pump. Its all idle at the mo with as much air as possible sucked out. If theres still no air in it in the morning ill know ive got no leaks and can start evacuating it properly.

Cheers for now:wavey:
 
Well its been almost a year in the making. But i finally got me some results :D.

After vacing all night and a few, quick evacs this morning i got around to charging.
