Thanks! I appreciate it. It was a labor of love. Someday I'd like to try it again. Still have some ideas. 😊
Not sure if anyone uses builds.gg anymore. But I posted a bunch of pictures there.
I also have my other builds.liated as well.

There are some pretty nice systems there. Put mine to shame.
The ATX specification will have the exact measurements. You'll be able to get the dimensions from that.
You can also find a junk mobo to use as well from eBay.
I am playing with the idea of changing the clear tubes to copper pipes. I still might.
For those curious on my the VRM Temps.
Here is the summary of my VRM temps: CPU VDD (Main Core Power) VRM: Averaged 58.1°C with a peak of 61.3°C. CPU SOC (System on Chip Power) VRM: Averaged 57.7°C with a peak of 60.7°C. CPU MISC (Miscellaneous Power) VRM: Averaged 64.9°C with a peak of 66.0°C. GPU VRM: Averaged 34.6°C with a peak of 35.0°C.
LoL, I get that and an espresso machine.
Yeah, so far everything seems ok, I keep an eye on them and I am looking at ways to actively cool it.
I had an old ATX motherboard and I traced the holes.
It is an oak veneer plywood. I used plywood because natural wood, unless handled correctly can quickly warp and or shrink. This could cause a lot of problems with trying to get thinks properly aligned.
Plywood is very stable in that way.
I would probably do a different stain, dark wood.
I tried a gray satin on the V1. I'll see if I can find a picture.

Thank you!

It's pretty easy to keep clean, just blow it out once a month or so.
