all right so we got a big heavy box here from aqua tuning this is a water cooling company that you guys can get parts and stuff out of based out of Germany it's been a long time since they're looking and it looked at anything from aqua tuning but they sent a hell of a care package I know of one item that's in here the rest is bonus stuff but given it's the hot summer months for most of us if for Australia we're there just got to be backwards down there we are going to go ahead and talk about some cooling stuff obviously this is water cooling but there's one item here in here I think a lot of you guys are gonna be really excited about but before we get into today's topic I'm going to talk to you guys about Internet Security and Nord VPN now internet security is something you should definitely take serious especially if you're connecting to public Wi-Fi or you just care about keeping your information private especially with all the ongoing stuff with net neutrality Norden VPN has over 4,000 servers in over 60 countries including Africa Asia the Middle East you name it you can connect safely and securely with Nord VPN now my favorite part about Nord VPN is they don't keep any logs which means that you are truly surfing the internet anonymously and securely so start securing your internet by getting 77 percent off a three year membership by heading to Nord BPM comm / Jayce two cents or just click the link in the description below so this is like Christmas in July oh I almost threw out something important now baseball this is the actual part I was most excited about with this unboxing and we'll take a look at this in a sec we've got some tube this is an upcoming video cross-flow radiator versus a standard flow radiator so we've also got the Alpha cool ice block xpx CPU this is both Intel and AMD ready it is an LED lit water block so it's it's lit that meme died whoo so this is not a nuclear football guys this is actually a toolkit a toolkit has everything you could possibly need or want for rigid tube bending you know I'm gonna look at the manual anglia gerado mid stiffen slug the ice didn't weigh the ice tech Tifa be psyched zine mittens difference lag curve or didn't so at first this is a bit overwhelming as a guy who pretty much just does everything a hundred percent by eyeball I've never measured I've never used these protractors and angled devices and bending guides and cheese plates but I think I'm getting I'm look into the manual here and I think I'm getting it because pretty much you have every possible type of Bend you could need to do on this it's very 3d it's not just how bends flat on the cheese plate will do it demonstration obviously this guy right here this is a stylus stopper with very variable insertion depth alright so the way that these mount down and you've got different radiuses here obviously so you've got 45 a 90 a 60 and a 30 and these are very common and then these are the same measurements here just in a little bit tighter radius this is just an angle wheel right here so you can bend this to get the proper angle you could figure out a 180 or 90 so the way this mount sounds pretty simple you've got your long screws you've got your wing nuts we're not really wing that sore thumb nuts basically I guess numb nuts them that's whatever and then you've got some washers so if you wanted to mount down say this angle wheel you pull the long screw up through the bottom you can put this guy down through there put a washer on here and then a nut okay so now this is mounted down to I don't know if this is technically called a cheese plate but that's what we're calling it because that's what it's called when you mount stuff to a camera it's a big cheese plate and there's that now this is your stylus stopper this is basically you could be used either it's just a straight guide or you can use this to actually mark off like where the tube should stop that would stop it from going any farther so you could use that as your starting point and then your turn or you can just make it a little bit too long on either side and cut it down to length which is typically the way that I do it but then this all mounts down literally the exact same way now you'll notice each one of these tools actually have two different kind of grooves in here ones for the 12 or a 13 mil pipe and then the bigger one is for the 16 millimeter pipe so this is basically one tool kit for all the different sizes but whichever side is facing down is the current size we'll be working with so I'm gonna be doing a 12 or 13 mil tube and I'm gonna make sure that that's facing down and then once we lock it down we're good so that's the bend I'm gonna try and recreate here technically it's a double 90 but that's where you have the 90 going to different directions usually coming out of the top radiator and going into the CPU block or something like that those are usually the hardest bends to do especially by eyeball but in order to do that we have this particular tool right here you can see it's like a ramp so this would actually mount down like this as you can see now as the to me comes along it it will ramp up word but the cool part is the reason why you're seeing these kind of flop all around is because these are also adjustable angle so let's say you didn't want to go straight up but you wanted to go up and to the side you could do that and you can congest or control your angle by this angle meter it's all it's got all the tick marks for all the different angles right there so this is truly a 3d piece of equipment when it comes to being able to do all your measurements what's cool though is the the measurements of the gaps in this cheese plate are perfect like this cannot once it's tightened down this won't be able to rotate there's no place I'd to side so that way you're not screwing up your angles a couple of degrees here and there because you know there was play in the jig got Mohicans here I thought I did might be under the seat okay so the heat guns are not in the car yes we're going to Lowe's again all right I guess we can go finish the video all right now that we got our heat gun it's actually pretty good one I got this from Lowe's for 39 bucks it's got multiple settings and multiple temperatures like it's a temperature dial so so obviously you need to take your mandrel cord the one that's designed for the right size tubing you're using this one is the 13 mil you might have to damp this dampen it it is pretty tight fit I don't normally use oil or anything like that to get it to slide in there but I'm gonna do this Bend right here first now you're not gonna hold the heat gun like you're not gonna try and bend it like this right because they don't be melting all these plastics you're gonna heat it on the table and then you're going to make you know you're gonna you're gonna push it down on there so let me go ahead and see if I can't get this in there a little bit farther the tighter the mandrel fits the less kink you're gonna get in the tubing so that's why it's so the ones that just slide in there really really easily this is going a really weird conversation but the ones that slide in there really really easily tend to you know give you a little bit less than desirable kink in YouTube yeah and maybe worn out so when you're heating it up obviously I've done a tutorial on this before I'll try and link it if not just look up how to bend hard line tubing you'll find lots of tutorials you're just gonna go back and forth because you don't want to heat up one particular spot you want to heat up a range that way it can make a nice smooth radius we're gonna wait till starts become a little bit my malleable mailable mount and my malleable whatever the word is guys and I'm trying to say I hope see it's starting to bend a little bit on me they're nice and hot but not too hot we don't want to stretch we're just going to apply it to our jig like so and we're just gonna hold it for a little bit so it can cool off make sure it's in there firmly you have some time to kind of play with it too before it gets completely frozen in its position you want to remove it too soon if you do then it will relax and start to straighten back out we don't want that so just take your time let it cool off smells like success there's our 90 so now we're gonna need to cut this tubing down because let's say this was our stopper point right here we know we want to go to 11 right so we can kind of guesstimate like okay we can cut it and say right about here you want to leave a little bit more length than you think you need because obviously if you cut it too short well that's not gonna do you any good so I'm going to go ahead and rig up our jig once again or our advice so that we can use the included saw so that just threads down almost like I just like a regular seat clamp almost so you would make your marks and they're rubber lined which is nice so they're not gonna scratch up your tubing take our included saw this is gonna make sure we get a nice straight cut and you're all the way through just like that this is your D Brewer tool so you could take this and turn it on the outside so you can see that got rid of any edges on the outside and this does the same thing for the inside and then it made still a little bit rough but that's the nature of PT G because it's so soft but yeah there's that so this is the mandrel I've been using all the way up to this point but you can see it's a hollow cord so the difference is when you thread this through and then it makes that Bend and yeah you can actually cord it or push it through a bend like people not realize you can do that this can actually squish and because it can squish would give you a little bit of a bulge on the tube but the solid mandrel won't do that the only problem is solved mandrel those like I said getting it actually threaded in there is kind of a pain in the ass we have to get you know down to here so one thing I like to do though if the mandrel won't you know slide in the tube very easily because this one definitely doesn't want to go past that point you can use a little bit of soap just a tiny little bit of soap it's easy to clean off afterward because even if you rinse YouTube what you should do anyway because you know hygiene is very important also it gets rid of any of the possible little burrs in there from you cutting it this should then just slide in there now see a little bit soap and then you can just rinse this in the sink under let some water run through it it'll get rid of all the soap and now as you can see we've got our mandrel all the way down past where we need it so just like before we want to heat up a range of the tubing it's goodness even if it starts to sag and wobble and look a little bit crooked our jig is gonna keep everything nice and straight with how we want it now this is the kind of thing that for a guy like me who's done every build you've ever see me do up to this point completely by eyeball or I'll use the edge of a table on the corner to get my 9 D stuff like that this would probably take me longer until I got used to using it because you have to measure obviously with this one you have to measure it shows you in the manual like kind of like the type of measurements you'd want to take this will give us completely perfect results as long as we measure properly not bad at all I kind of wish this would give me a tighter radius because I can actually get a pretty tight Bend by hand but I mean this is still a pretty good radius angle well well would you look at that not bad at all dope kinking no crimping and theoretically if we've measured properly then this would have lined up perfectly with where our fittings would be so it's just a quick example of how you could use a toolkit like this to get perfect bends the first time as long as you measure twice Bend once let's talk about this kit and kind of who it's for it's not entirely cheap I mean this is this is a kit designed for people who are doing this all the time and I'm still not a hundred percent sure if I'm gonna use it all the time there might be some very specific vens I might try it out on I'm just so used to my particular way of eyeballing things there are people out there that might just want to eyeball it like I do and there are people out there who definitely don't feel comfortable eyeballing at which a kit like this would make sense for but again it's not cheap it definitely has a price tag associated with it but this is a you buy it once and then you can use it obviously over and over and over your build friends builds or if you're running a business where you're doing hard line tubing obviously this makes sense let's say you're doing five builds for like a custom client or so our custom builds for a client and you know you're building five identical pcs well once you get it all jigged up once you can do five bends back to back to back and then they're all and then they're all good to go without having to measure over and I can't even tell you how many times I've done the same Bend five times in a row because I'm just a few millimeters off and I like it to be as straight and square as possible so you guys tell me what you think down below of alpha coolest ice coffer toolkit I think I'm pronouncing it right I'm probably not but whatever guys tell me what you think down below I'm curious if you would buy a kit like this for a one-time build or if you wouldn't why put it down below thanks for watching guys and as always we'll see you in the next one baby wait it's like a banjo okay now you focus fill anyone laughs you're doing laughing get to the choppa now do we know one of the things I used to do around here is I did another thing all the time and then people used to be like yeah I do the honors when he did the live-streaming there with the last print
