Any OC.com Member make waterblocks?

CreePinG_DeatH · 04-11-02, 12:32 AM

I am looking for someone to make me a waterblock. It's not a simple design. Actually I would think it's complicated. Anyway, if someone is interested I would send them a drawing that I will make up.

I wanted to see if someone who buy my design and make it, but they never respond so I don't really care anymore. If they take my work and use it now, I'll just sue them. Anyway let me know.

I know a couple, btu they only do it for personnel I think. Bender sells his tho

Bender · 04-11-02, 03:11 PM

I do make a few blocks now and then. I don't have the best equipment but I might be able to give it a shot depending on how complex it is. HERE is one I just built

CreePinG_DeatH · 04-11-02, 03:29 PM

Well it's basically an ordinary spiral design with pins of a heatsink in the channel. But I want them part of the block, not like glued or soldered.

Bender · 04-11-02, 03:51 PM

I don't think I could do pins without soldering them in. I could try thin fins but that would also require soldering since I cant get my walls that thin.

CreePinG_DeatH · 04-11-02, 09:02 PM

Would it be easier if we take an already made heatsink and used a saw to cut thin slits which would be where the walls of the channels would be? And then we could take a piece of copper and make a top piece that would slide down into the heatsink and actually make the channels?

if it were me. I would get a piece of copper and cut a maze in it place it over heatsink to see which pins need to be pulled on then pull them then solder the maze on to heatsink and then make a top.

Why not just take a copper heatsink, cut it down to a bit lower profile, solder some copper plate around the edges and get some water flowing through it?

thats more less what I'm talking about but CD want to also add a maze to it.

CreePinG_DeatH · 04-11-02, 10:04 PM

Yea ok. Now I just have to find an excellent heatsink that has pins. I know swiftech has a couple I think... But I have ot measure the base. If I remember correctly, the pins were pushed into the base or something. I want the base of my block to be like 1/8" thick and I don't know how deep the pins go. Does anyone remember who cut that swiftech apart? I probably could as him to measure.

We may be running in parallel universes. This is what i have been working on:

Woah...weird. Perhaps we can read eachothers minds?

QUICK! What number am I thinking of?

Bender · 04-11-02, 11:11 PM

Hoot that is one insane block! I could do something like that but it will take me ages to drill all the tiny holes. Did you make that yourself or did a machine shop do it? If so what tools are you using?

res0r9lm · 04-11-02, 11:14 PM

it a heatsink with shortened pins bender

Hoot · 04-11-02, 11:18 PM

That base and pins are forged from one piece of copper. No drill and stake. It's a modified air cooled heatsink. The pins were originally about 1-1/2 long. Using a 3/8" long piece of small steel tubing as a gauge, I slid it over each individual pin and snipped it off with a pair of sharp, fine dikes so that they all are exactly 3/8" long.

It was quite the labor of love. I guess I've read one too many posts about water sinks as opposed to water blocks and they got me to thinking.

CreePinG_DeatH · 04-11-02, 11:24 PM

Hoot- Did you make that? If so, how are the pins attached? Were they forged with the heatsink or what? The idea looks good, but wouldn't it be easier to channel out a path in a piece of copper and just slide it over ? Well I guess it wouldn't really matter...

Oh, and if you made that, could you make one for me so I can try and get a design template going? Like so I can take measurements and stuff? That would be nipples. Thanx.

CreePinG_DeatH · 04-11-02, 11:25 PM

Geez you post as I am posting and make me look like a fool who can't read lol.

CreePinG_DeatH · 04-11-02, 11:28 PM

Oh one more thing... I thought that if everything was too "smooth" you can add some turbulence by getting some acid and an eye dropper and letting the bottom get etched away for a bumpy bottom... Sound like it would work?
