..copper tubing is much easier to cut than glass. I didn't do the bends nor the chroming, I'm not THAT good.

Leak testing as I write this.

>>36904 I saw some videos, that looks so much easier. I'll have to search for it now. Thank y'all.

>>36892 That type is fine, but the pen type is just so satisfying to use :D

>>36882 Most of the tubing cutters have a little flip-out deburring tool built in.

>>36882>>36883 I couldn't find the pic of my cutter tool but it has a deburring reamer inside the (black) knob. It worked fine as my pc isn't leaking.

I prefer off or static to blinking rainbow barf techno fest.

>>36882 You need a reamer to clean up the inner edges of the cuts. They work on metal and hard plastics >>>

Cutting Acrylic with a fine handsaw is a PITA but I use my small band saw with a fine blade and it does a great job.

RGB is fine in small doses or when it's doing something useful, but way too many people seem to have RGB overload in their PC's now :D

The cutter works on PETG tubes too, although it does bend the ending a bit inwards. Still a lot easier and less messy than using a saw.

Artsy fartsy pic for the 'gram

The previous was clear PETG. Before that I had Acrylic, now that was a pita as it tended to crack when cutting (saw). PETG was by far better but it's plastic and could bend when reaching high temps.

My current pc is rgb free, okay except the fan controller but I use static red.

Was the old pipe glass or acrylic? Either way metal pipe is easy to work with and reliable.

I guess people just like the clear pipe for their RGB shit :D
