Having those perfect edges is only necessary for water-tightness right? If it was just a case you wouldn't bother? I've been considering making myself a custom case out of acrylic, even drew up a 3d model of it. check it out onthis thread. If I ever get around to it I might ask you for some tips CyberDruid.

very pretty reminds me of niagara falls at night, I would buy one if you made them smaller for single loops, mount it on top of my case.

I want to see UV Orange dye in that with two UV CFFLs under it...

In my case! :D Very nice work. I love the concept.

Edit: Just had an idea. Make one with ribbed plexi (you could do it with a bunch of small pieces) going down the front bay of a CM Cosmos or somthing. That would be amazing. Like those trickling fountains in businesses and such.

im serious you should make one like 1/4th the size and refine it a little, chamber for LED, rubber o rings in holes and a pour hole in the top.

just a thought...

Would there be a way to temporarily attach internal peices for testing? A proto type box for playing with internal designs would come in handy. The outer shell could have a standard size with a lid that could be removed with screws (similar to the mounting method you used in the photo but on the inside at the top with screw holes opening up would be simple. For the internals there could be a plethera of drilled and tapped holes on the sides of the shell(may not need to be tapped, depends on plugs and testing pressure). It would be alot of drilling and tapping but the end result would net you a test rig with a multitude of options for setting up internals.

Hey mate

Was just reading your thread on the custom res' you make. neat job by the way.

I am aviation engineer and a lot of the helicopters we get in all have plexiglass windows, similar to the stuff your working with. We rub this chemical on the exteriors of the windows to stop water from "sticking" to the outside of the window as most of the choppers do not have window wipers.

The stuff we use is very similar to Rainx that people use on glass windows in their cars.

Maybe if you can get hold of something similar and use in on the interior of your res' it may help quite a bit as the water beads and "falls" off the plastic. therefore eliminating condensation and splashes on the front panel making the waterfall effect easier to see.

Might help might not :)

res is the width of a standard DVD drive or w/e. It's 3 bays in height and 8" long. Kenny wanted lots of ports. Obviously less ports=less work and smaller=less material.
