Here is the project log for my current refrigeration project. A 3 stage cascade for benching CPU's to their very max at the flick of a switch, no liquid nitrogen around here. Better. Adjustable STABLE temperatures without pouring or filling.

Maybe more to come? Who knows who might want to see their product get frozen over.



I joined (followed Buckeye actually) to share with you guys some current phase projects.
Hope you don't mind! :wave:

So here's some autocad!

Estimated Temperature: <-- Ha like I'd tell you that









UPDATE JUNE12th.

Little update.
Got home today, gotta start unpacking a huge amount of stuff from school. But, ran down stairs, and threw some crap on the table.
Hope you enjoy.



Some fairly sloppy grinding and heavy red krylon paint later,



A milling machine! Richard got it into the workshop on this dolley of his. I was scared watching this thing jump up and down with each step. (Had to underinflate the tires on the dolley to take 300lbs safely)

Welding up a new work table, mainly for the project, but also for the milling machine.
Then we can start plotting the cage





Table 1 done. Milling machine going on up tomorrow.



Winch + ceiling beam = Mill on Table!
I'm happy it made it, table seems more then okay, but conducts vibration a bit much.
Going to get some more MDF under it, get it all bolted down. And then figure out why the spindle ain't spinnin!



Everything moved over, so time to start laying out parts.
Might have a lead on the condenser I'd like for this, so the front is a little empty.
Compressors that seem "used" are working pulls from my own personal cascade that well, I built and never got around to finishing. So they're brand new still.

Layout time.

Brazed the first suction stem on compressor numero uno. It's nice to do them like this, since they'll shoot straight up to the heat exchanger coils. Nice and easy to insulate.





Heat exchanger time.
You can never have enough copper.

Making some fitting attachments.
Cleaned and shined;
