Home-made flexible heat pipes

   Solder copper heat remover in the same way. If somebody takes risk of replication of the construction, I reveal you a small ruse how to solder such massive component with a handy and small soldering iron of capacity only 65 watt. For that purpose I have a 2000 watt construction fan at hand :) Before soldering the fragment, it’s enough to heat the place for 10 seconds, then you can work with a low-capacity soldering iron. If you solder a 150 gr copper disk, assist yourself with the fan all the time, for such work even 100 watt soldering iron is not enough.

   At the other side solder similar “deflector”, such name was given to the device :) To run a few steps forward, I pay your attention to the quality of soldering of the pipe to deflector… Later we took a lot of troubles over this part when pumping air out.

   As a matter of fact, there is the result of our work in the picture. It looks horribly… But we didn’t plan to send this device to the beauty contest, so let’s proceed to air exhaust and testing the device.
