Thinbot -- Work in Progress 2-8-2012

Today I disassembled the chiller/nozzle to clean up and polish all the stainless tubing, so I can assemble and leak-test it tomorrow after I've run the polished tubing through the ultrasonic cleaning system at work.

I also did a test assembly of the frame with the lucite base and shelves and the polycarbonate tanks.




Test assembly of base, shelves and tanks (with bottle for scale)

I know it isn't for CC30, but will you bring it to that? Would be fun to see this up close. :)

probably not. We'll be flying, and this won't be lightweight enough.
