remember kids, the difference between doing something stupid and doing something for science is that for science you take notes of your results (and shout "FOR SCIENCE!!" )
Empirical testing and knowledge is the backbone of the scientific method, afterall. There is no science behind the scientific method; it is just a structured/formalized format for messing about.
There was a recent post in the r/SFFPC subreddit where a user 3D printed molds instead. Then used regular hardline tubing and used heat to fit them to the mold. Was able to achieve something super complex but without having to go resin and print the full tubes. It would work great for an SI when they have fixed configurations, they could just premake all the tube runs with ease.
Custom Scientific Glass Blowing has a similar process where they use regular tubing and stock glass to form custom pieces for laboratory and manufacturing use which has to be of a high standard for professional use to withstand heat and pressure tolerances fit for purpose. Or if you think of it as a prototyping route, make a model test fit... and then go completely over the top and follow an artistic route glass blower/sculpter to make the final product. The looks you could pull off like go full glass crazy straw, mad-scientist labratory glass kit, abstract art like a glass knot or klein bottle, or waterflow sculptures.
If you don't want to resin print you can fdm print casings to hold softline tubing, you just thread the tubing through the printed casing and you have your shaped tubing
Honestly one of the coolest videos LTT has posted in a while. Please go down this rabbit hole. Im sure more will be uncovered of how viable this might actually be
Open loop splashing water on a tower heatsink would be hilarious. You'll probably have to top it off every week due to evaporation, but it'll double as a humidifier.
Every week? Eh, if the capacity is like common loops, several times a day to once every hour or so running an i9 with load on it. You'd have to demineralize the loop once or twice a day or your pump won't make a full day without seizing. Realistically you'd have to automate refill based on some level point or you'll cook stuff or have auto shutdown due to thermal alarm constantly. Think of it this way, would you want a 100w+ air humidifier?
I didn't realize there was a scanning spray that cleaned up with sublimation. I was only aware of ones that required manual cleaning. Going to have to give it a try.
I use it all the time in my job. It can take quite a while to fully sublimate, but even if you end up having to clean some of it off manually, it's still a lot less messy than dealing with the non-sublimating stuff.
I am kind of glad that they brought the intro back. Honestly I feel like linus should do more off script stuff. Makes the video more genuine and spontaneous
Man I have been 3d printing for nearly 6 years now and this is very cool tbh I’m very surprised no one thought of this before but man you guys did a great job keep up the brilliant work guys your all the best.
About time you guys tried this, I did this years back with my Anycubic Photon, only did a few difficult bends, but 4 yrs later they are still in daily use.
This is cool. If you have a small resin printer, you could conceivably print separate tube sections with each end having a male/female end that fit together and glued with resin. Each section can be oriented for best quality.
Okay I will admit that is pretty awesome...been watching a ton of custom loop videos since my next build I want to finally do my first hard line...and this is just cool!
You absolutely can use FDM printing to produce watertight objects, I have done it myself using PETG and even in vase mode (where the wall is just a single continuous extrusion). You just need to have well tuned settings. PLA isn't good for watertight objects but most other materials are absolutely fine. Yes prints have layers but if your settings are right then the layers should be fused enough that there isn't any gap.
Linus took off his metal challenge gauntlet, slapped Charles Harwood across the face, took his puppy, and stomped over his flower garden and said this isn’t a challenge. 😂😂😂
This is the kind of shit that I love ltt for. It’s crazy enough that I’d never try it first, but now that they’ve done it I’m kind of intrigued to try. Great video 👍
I have 3d printed some mold for a custom loop I did for a friend it required a tube with 4 precise bends and to make it square I created a series of dies to properly bend the PMMA pipes.
I'm not prone to seizures myself but I really appreciate the approach taken to the warning here because they give ample time in the warning and indicate when its okay to look again. No one ever indicated when its okay to look again which just makes no sense.
It did say it will be okay to resume watching when you hear a ding, and there was a ding. Though I would prefer a noise similar to the warring one but a different tone.
You can add a bit of adjustability into the tube as well by adding extra bends that allow some 'squishiness' in certain directions, depending on the rigidity of the plastic used.
The resin is usually very rigid. And putting more bends in it than necessary could lower your efficient fluid movement. You can't just heat bend it like the plastic or the glass.
Oh it will. I thought about doing this almost 6 years ago. Turns out that resin prints dissolve in water. Hope that the resin they used resolves this issue.
@@hed420 There are plenty of resins that aren't water soluble. In fact, can you guess what kind of technique dentists use nowadays? Surprise! Resin 3D printing.
Well resin has been known to be water tight for years. Most of the resins for hobby use don't stand up well in water. That said there are plenty of ones that are water safe. Some of the new ones that you can thermal cure on top of the UV cure so you don't end up with the uncured internal resin issues although it is absurdly expensive and I don't think I have seen clear.
12:36 - 12:39 "100,000mAh battery capacity" Hey Alex, you've got some info the printer doesn't have? Cause it printed 10,000mAh on the powerbank (as shown at 12:44)...
You know who is also as mad? Our sponsor, Acronis! Okay jokes aside this is really cool. It’s even done in a SSUPD case with the Barrow combined pump/reservoir/block
Resin toxicity varies dramatically depending on the formulation - and there are low toxicity formulations that are dramatically safer to use, but be aware that to achieve low toxicity tradeoffs in cost, mechanical (ex, tensile strength, glass transition temp), printable (viscosity, curing wavelengths, curing time, etc), optical (coloration, UV stabilization, opacity), or chemical (water sensitivity, ozone sensitivity, etc) must be made, so do your research on what you need to make the print actually function in its intended role and its compatibility with printers/curing lights/etc. I personally work with a very low toxicity PMMA/acrylic formulation for most of what I do personally, but while its got pretty decent mechanical and cost properties, it does make notable tradeoffs in chemical (high water sensitivity causing hydrolysis of the plastic before being fully cured), optical (low clarity on "transparent"/translucent prints), and printable (high viscosity) properties
4:04 means your settings are not correct, although it's less relevant because you can coat the stuff in epoxy. I printed a part in petg for a hydrolic tank and it is indeed water tight. There is a alternative where you fill the part with sand and put it in a box of packed sand then heat it enough to somewhat melt which will also seal the print.
Maybe on a high-end printer I would agree with you, but on a lot of the extremely low quality low-cost consumer models, I would not expect those prints to be water tight. And yes, there are solutions for that problem but coding an entire tube in epoxy at that point, why don't you just use traditional hardline methods because it's impressive enough for way less manual labor
@@xXlURMOMlXx but can you reliably do that with relatively thin tubes? And also can you do that from printer to printer because something that you need to understand Is these cheap consumer models? Do not have high tolerances so you could get one that's capable of amazing precision and you can get another one that couldn't print watertight tubes to save its life, especially because a lot of these companies do not care about the tolerances they're they are just trying to sell you really cheap garbage
@@the_undead that's a skill issue. The printers are cheap because you have to build them and calibrate it yourself. It's a pita but you get what you pay for. Spend a little more for a bambu and it's a non issue
Scanning the case is certainly an option, but bending a wire to the run you want and then measuring that wire would be a heck of a lot easier. And cheaper. Still a cool project though
I’ve been trying to figure out a good way to do all the tubes for water cooling a computer and this literally is my answer. I already know how to do all of this and it should be easy for me. Thanks for being guinea pigs for me.
@@VitalVampyr but not a fully 3d printed one idk maybe add 3d printed screws, GPU riser water-cooling blocks (and using the stuff in this video) + 3d printed monitor stand mouse and keyboard
5:51 if you guys didn’t know why he suggested using uv paint it’s because if you watch one of his older videos he shows off his old pcs and one of those pcs had custom water cooling and uv reactive paint and a crap ton of I’ve lights. I just wanted to point this out because that is really cool that he still to this day loved uv pcs
You could also 3D print the reservoir, distribution block, and fittings with O-ring grooves. Plus you could vary the width of tubes, adapt between sizes without fittings, and make structural or decorative components that are part of the loop. Even FDM prints can be water tight, though it depends on material and print settings.
This is one of the only times I was ahead of the game with one of your sponsors. We use Acronis for a number of our IT needs and it has definitely made my job a crap ton easier. It's also super affordable compared to anything close to a competitor.
Yo! Linus, this is one of the reason why I keep watching every video release you guys have.. This surely will change a lot for Hard line tubing a computer, and yeah.. having a waterfall as part of the water cooling would be an awesome idea, checking the effectivity for thermal I'm pretty sure that will be a game changer. The concept is phenomenal and the applications if proven effective for thermal cooling, has tons of potential. ~Im watching here all the way from PH.
I want to try and build custom distroplates with this idea. Finding one for each case is insane, but with this, you could beef it up and counter sink the screw areas for the fittings.
one thing i would love to see now, is a small reservoir built into the tube(so for instance the spiral could be filled out, and used as a reservoir) and it could make water cooling a tiny form factor pc better, since you can fit the tubes in where there is space, and make a small reservoir where there is space for it, and even a fill cap located in a convenient spot, and a drain port as well.
I actually have an Acronis True Image license. Sure, it's for the 2018 version, but I've upgraded it once before that, and it saved my behind more than once.
One interesting benefit to the spiral tubing is you've inadvertently created a secondary radiator in your PC. There's a heckin lot of extra surface area to radiate heat through.

Does the ECC all have AdBlock? (I know it's not a yt ad.)
There goes the 100,000mAh dream 😔
3D print a case. Make it be the tubing and reservoir.
That is an incredible idea but would be hella complex to make
Metal 3d print the case so it can be the tubing, reservoir, and the radiator.
They already printed a case. Nice one
thats actually genious
