Nice, look out for a black and decker RTX. I swapped my dremel for one of these and never looked back.

Take a measuring cup and measure out 1 cup of antifreeze and 9 cups of water. Voila you have 1/10 antifreeze/water mixture. If cups are to large use half cups... It doesnt matter what device you use, as long as it is the same size for both water and freeze

i'm a water cooling n00b so any veterans correct me if i'm wrong.

fill your system with water and run it to get all the air our of it. then
drain the system and measure how much water was needed to fill it.
take that number and multiply that by .1 (10%) the number you get is
how much anti-freeze you'll want to add.

just get a gallon of distilled water, then measure how many cups are in it. Then pour 10% of it out and fill it back up with antifreeze. Then you have about a 10/90 mix and you'll have extra if you ever need to refill it or take it apart.

Bobaroo,

Lap the WW before you install it. The finish on those D-tek WW blocks is terrible! Horribly uneven.

BTW, I have the exact same block as you Poly top and everything.
