[@ZackD710]

wish this were soldered together and used as a custom loop rathe then super glued, coming up with ideas to create my own brought me here, great looking computer

[@samsowden]

was hoping for the same, a structural cooling loop.

[@hyw6202]

This is actually the coolest pc build ive seen so far

That's sum artistic craftsmanship awesome custom PC build thumbs up 👍

[@garylee8132]

I've been thinking about a steampunk build but I wouldn't polish everything, leave the copper/brass distressed for aging effect then clear coat it if you wish.

[@xbuildscustoms]

this is SICK! love the creativity in this awesome job

[@DesignSomething]

Thanks!

[@eskilgta1811]

That looks so clean.

[@alechiavassa]

Amazing, I love this!

[@DesignSomething]

Thank you so much!

[@sedatmehmed4371]

It is very beautiful but so much pipes and the CPU is air cooled. I think a custom loop would have integrated very well

[@GabrieLight]

But custom loop isn't 100% safe! Right?!

[@sedatmehmed4371]

@@GabrieLight Well yes, but if you have the skills to pull of this case probably you can execute a custom loop well. And of course you will do dry test before putting all your precious hardware inside

[@GabrieLight]

@@sedatmehmed4371 Aha i see, thanks! 👍

[@cjsawinski]

Awesome! I want to do something similar. But mix in some Walnut for panels, also have it a custom loop and the copper tubing be both a “frame” and the tubing for the loop!

[@DesignSomething]

Cool idea!

[@120poundsound2]

I had a similar idea a while back. Nice to see something very close to. Looks great. 👍

[@DesignSomething]

Thanks!

[@onuryildiz8299]

Great job! You can add some numitron tubes on the case.

[@DesignSomething]

Great idea!

[@GabrieLight]

But how much heat this lamp will produce?! And also with such fixed pipes it will be hard to maintain the mobo! Right?!

[@nicolassukhu526]

I love this idea and I actually started my own recently with a more rustic look and water cooling. Did you use pvc pipes painted for the pipes?

[@DesignSomething]

This is copper pipes. But for water cooling is better to use pvc pipes. Thanks!

[@GabrieLight]

@@DesignSomething Why?

[@lukeskywalker9962]

This looks great!

[@DesignSomething]

Thanks!

[@biuku]

That is incredible. The most creative steampunk PC I've seen. Q: what is the black material used for the levels?

[@DesignSomething]

Thank you! The black material is plastic :)

[@brunocarvalho2233]

Question: where are the SSD's and/or HD's? And where do you power the pc? thanks!

[@DesignSomething]

For my build I used M2 drive. The PSU in on the bottom / lower section

[@BritishBeeMan]

This is amazing. Anyway you could get a digital analogue gauge and drive it from the boards temp sensor?

[@brunocarvalho2233]

Good Morning! I'm Brazilian and I loved this project and I really wanted to replicate it! Do you have the project, or the measurements?

[@DesignSomething]

Hi. I created the modding in 3ds max. I have all the measurements in this file. You need 3ds max 2020 (or later) to open it. You can download the file from here drive.google.com/file/d/1WE8HfVpw5U0fp9AGgdIOmV1qGaMkEmVh/view?usp=sharing

[@brunocarvalho2233]

@@DesignSomething Oh my God! Thank you very, very, very much indeed! you made my day better today! Gratitude always! I wish you a lot of success! you are so great!

[@thepork9940]

Would be cooler if you used the lamp as a hdd light led, and used the gauge to show the cpu usage

[@vhaelen326]

stuff like this is miles better than just random RGB bullshit IMO

[@DesignSomething]

Thanks!

[@fazry88]

why cable ties?

[@DesignSomething]

I didn't had a 3d printer at that time.

[@JezzaPanther]

Could have used the pipes to route the cables if you didn't.

[@TheWatercolourNymph]

I love this so much!! how much did it cost to make? also, do you do commission??

[@DesignSomething]

Thank you! It was relatively cheap to build (around $400) because it's not a powerful computer. The pipes, aluminum sheet and electrical parts are from a local hardware store. Yes I do commissions. What kind of commission you have in mind? Also I love your watercolors!
