It was definitely a proud moment once the loops were done. Using the Koolance quick-disconnects makes everything quickly interchangeable. Thats what I needed to switchout mobos/gpus/etc. Its easier to bench this way than on a cardboard box with a DICE/LN2 pot on it.

It looks nice. But if it was me, i would not cut the bottom shelfs and leave the "benchtable" as a standalone piece of furniture... You could use the shelf space for storing HW and equipment that you need to have close.

Yah I am pondering that myself. My desk is always getting cluttered with OS install disks, flash drives full of drivers, usb drives full of software, screwdrivers, needle nose, sticks of ram, video cards, coffee cups/ber cans.

And thats now that I replaced the 6' bench table to a 3' wide "shelf" was really crazy before with all kinds of modding stuff, empty PC carcasses etc etc


Dunno if I should convert my TV stand to a top level bench or mid level. top gives me the bottom for storage but not room for IO devices. Mid gives me room for IO but no storage *sigh

I have a feeling it is just going to become a computer desk for the kids
