Coolant is running through the tubes. Doors are on. Lights are on.

Build station (AKA kitchen table)
This is the last one we built - approx 10 years ago, without any help from the kids. Time for an upgrade.

PETG Tube bends. Not bad for first try.
All tubing installed!
Taking measurements
Put the coolant in to test for leaks - two minor ones easily fixed by tightening connections. Bigger issue is that the drain port on the reservoir is blocking the power ports for video card. Any suggestions? The reservoir can turn on the support so I moved the drain port away but not sure how to correct my mistake quickly.
After adjusting runs so that the video card can be plugged in, we are ready to install the operating system.
Up & running. Temp is 25 C without the doors.
We are live. Would love to find a way to get door engraved/etched.
Not as hard to complete as we originally thought. Feels good to be finished (almost - need to get UV light working).

Final tubing installed
Ran into an issue with a shipment of PETG tubing. Every cut we made shattered the tubing. Made final bends/cuts and installed into case.
