Making a Huge Waterblock from Scrap Copper -Trash to Treasure

Video Description

I Design, Cast, and Machine a huge water block from scrap Copper to cool a very large and intense surface mount COB LED chip for an insanely bright LED light engine I'm building. First I get the scrap copper, Design my part in CAD, then I melt and cast the metal into a mould, Machine it and finish it in the CNC mill and finally cut out a see-through back cover with the waterjet to see inside of the water block as its working Originally I was going to buy solid pieces of metal and machine my parts, but unfortunately all of the material that I need, the size I need it is not available for probably at least a few months. That's why I decided to take scrap copper, melt it down in a furnace and shape it into what I need to make my parts and I now have my light engine fully operational at full power. Fun Fact: Any static in this video was caused by 12μm Carbon dust that made its way into my camera and equipment...fun times. ↓↓Social media Links↓↓ 🐦 ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/WarpPerception 👍 ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WarpPerception/ ◙ ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/warped.perception ☢ ► IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5548028/?
