Been a while since the last Prometeia mod update so i took a few pix of the pressure test this morning.
The Phase cooling unit is nearing completion, I'm waiting on a 25micron vacuum test at the moment, I will begin recharging the refrigerant on Thursday. once we get the phase unit ready for use we will make a lot more progress on our project

here are some pix.
enjoy

I am noticing you guys have better tools than me, Can I come and work there...

[Exterminator]

Lol you are too funny, I actually have some family down your way close to Reno, actually in Yearington. If Im ever down that way maybe we could do a quick mod...

[markkleb]

how cool would that be a Lan/Mod Party...

[Exterminator]

Hell yea, we could be poppin off headshots and IHS's like nothin else, at the same time! v2_v3, blue_fire, and I are actually in a Solid Works seminar right now so we can get the latest design tech for our new line of blocks! LN2 anyone?
