kiki's first "pot"
 

hello guys i know i have been out for a long long time, last time when i was here i was talking about making a pot with a good friend of my and here i am with it mostly done

now we are just waiting to seal the bottom cap (he can get it done 10 min ea lol)
and then i have to make the holders
that' can be done really fast

tell me what do you guys think?

here is some pix of it
it is 18in long and opening is 3in wide in diameter 100% Cu
is this too long? and/or the ass is too big?
this is the only one that's 3in in diameter and i think the others are 2in not really sure how long are they yet

Looks sick,

I have worked with 3" copper tubing. I am not sure if a 3" cap hsa enough mass with in it to hold temps .... I am guessing this pot will really have temp swings that may prove problematic ....

never the less I am in for the results

Yup i agree with Witchy on this. The base needs more solid mass.

how should i going by adding more mass to it?

Witchy is right! I have made like 5 or 6 pots on my own and I can tell you from personal experience that this thing will swing temps like nuts especially on quad-cores. What size is the pipe? 2"? If 2" you will have issues with installation on mobos where the Vregs are close to the socket.

toss a bunch of bb's in it

I was going to mention something similar.... if you could smelt down a block of Cu or even Pb (lead), and pour it down in to add mass, that may help. You would def. have the plenty of mass after that. If you could manage to get enough smelted, you can pour it in solid and drill out a bunch of holes for surface area.

Homebrew ftw.

nice home made pot :D

length id say 10inches..more or less...

hahahaha i actually have a pack of 3000 bb's in my house lol (bb guns killing shit in back yard)


wouldn't just dock it on to the chip?

i am not sure if i'll beable to find and cu or pb at all..
i'll see what i can do
but can't i just put some bb's in it?:laughing:
