Been working on a little something of my own here since yesterday evening.
That's what I like about my benchshack - I could bench and do mods/build stuff at the same time if I wanted to.

Splave put those LHE subs in the corner with that new shine!

Bones hope your going with copper base dude..

Had a little session tonight scores to mild to post with weak CPU and card meh. But new Tek-9 is great :D

Don't have any copper to use here. :Dizzy:
It's a 3/4 inch thick piece of solid aluminum, the same thing that's on my old pot. The old pot seems to work OK but the base simply doesn't have enough mass to hold temps down as I'd want it to while booting or under load. The base on this one is much bigger so I think I'll see a difference between the two pots.

Believe me if I had some copper I'd be using it but gotta go with what I have - That's how it's always been here. Maybe one day I'll get a nice block of it and build something really good.
Not hard to do, just takes time to do it right.

I appreciate the offer but I coudn't ask that of you. :Hi:

Don't worry guys, I believe the new one will be good.
Overall results I've been getting from the old one were actually enough to let me be competitive with DICE and this one should let me go higher with better control of temps due to the larger base.
I'll get around to testing it soon and see what it does. It's already completed related to the assembly process and leak testing showed it as OK - Last thing I need to do is insulate it and do a cold test of the pot.

If anything it should be a good slow pot for my 939's.

That's about a 3 hr drive from here.
I lived in Huntsville for a short time so I'm kinda familiar with those parts.

Biggest item I need to find right now would be a dewar - Have a guy checking around for me ATM.

Bones, I have a dewar. It's big. Around $300 new....

LN2 is cheap though. probably like 25$ to fill it.....

I could ship it to you, not sure how much it would cost, but that's on you.

So if you don't have any luck finding one, I got this dewar that holds more than plenty ;). All you gotta do is ask, I'll size the box and weight and come up with a quote for shipping. heck I may even pay half for ya, like one way or something if it's really expensive.

You know how to get hold of me :D
