00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.480
what is going on here building a computer obviously this does not look like a normal computer though

00:00:07.040 --> 00:00:14.800
no of course not this is the ncix pc the pc built in an ncix sign that we bought at auction for like

00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:18.800
i think i got it for like 30 bucks or something like that which makes sense only 30 bucks well why

00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:23.920
would anybody else want it i guess so as i was telling the former owner of ncix i guess current

00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:29.760
owner but um when i was trying to buy the domain and the trademark and everything i was like look

00:00:30.560 --> 00:00:37.040
there is literally no one else on this green earth who wants it so the whatever it's worth

00:00:37.040 --> 00:00:42.880
is what i am willing to pay for it he did not take kind of that so we didn't get a deal done

00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:46.560
but like we weren't going to get a deal done we were pretty far apart on the price they wanted

00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:52.800
like seven figures for it and i'm sitting here seven figures high so this is like a legitimate

00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:57.760
sign that was like on like the storefront yeah yeah this is from one of the stores do you know

00:00:57.760 --> 00:01:03.040
which one i don't know which one but i think it's possible that we could figure it out because

00:01:03.040 --> 00:01:08.400
tanner was saying that from looking back at old pictures apparently the c's in particular were

00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:13.760
slightly different from store to store there wasn't really a ton of consistency so we may be able to

00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:19.280
figure out exactly which store it came from which would be pretty fun tanner are you on it just take

00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:24.480
a look at this very grainy photograph right here that looks like the same c that we're dealing with

00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:31.280
which store is that no no no no no no that's huge it's not that one that sign is like four times

00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:37.440
the size of this one i suspect this was actually an indoor sign and the reason it smells so bad is

00:01:37.440 --> 00:01:41.120
because it's been stored outdoors for the last five years since they ripped it away

00:01:41.360 --> 00:01:53.280
that's possible oh timing would be pretty close no it's not see the c is wrong

00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:01.600
so i think that's the older style c so it would have been a newer display so it could be

00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:09.680
i think good so hazelbridge way that's uh that that's rich bend right yeah so this appears to be

00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:18.720
a photo of hazelbridge way but the c in that sign is different if we can oh it could very well be that

00:02:18.720 --> 00:02:27.200
one it's hard to tell if this one has like a metal lip on it though it doesn't really look like it

00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:36.080
it looks like it's flush at the front hard to say this one is an indoor one yeah it is

00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:38.240
and the size is probably about right

00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:48.320
where's the exit you know what i don't think so tanner no i think the white border around this

00:02:48.320 --> 00:02:56.000
x is significantly larger no no i think the border is bigger here yeah and that's white not clear

00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:01.360
that is true we'll track it down where now all these signs are like different shapes you think

00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:05.600
that they just order a bunch every store you lease is going to have different spaces that

00:03:05.600 --> 00:03:08.880
you're going to want to put signs in every municipality is going to have its own bylaws

00:03:08.880 --> 00:03:13.840
for like what your signs can look like and how big they can be and blah blah blah blah uh whether

00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:25.200
they can be eliminated oh i have a hole in my pocket wait one yeah i need to stop oh my goodness

00:03:25.200 --> 00:03:31.440
pocket hang it i gotta get these pants these are these are a little bit past their best before

00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:36.240
did you ever work on like opening stores and stuff like that i remember you were at like

00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:43.280
some grand opening events right yep i worked on the markham grand opening i actually my first day

00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:51.040
at ncix happened to be the grand opening of the langley store oh but i i wasn't involved in the

00:03:51.040 --> 00:03:55.680
opening other than just being there and i wasn't even working the tail even though i was technically

00:03:55.680 --> 00:04:00.960
sales i was just like a gopher like i was helping run things back and forth to the backs of the

00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:05.440
sales could just take orders and get through the line as fast as possible because they did a grand

00:04:05.440 --> 00:04:12.640
opening on boxing day was this pre ncix tech tips oh yeah yeah yeah ncix tech tips didn't exist before

00:04:12.640 --> 00:04:18.800
i started it uh and that was only after i moved to head office so i worked for retail sales first

00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:24.240
okay i need a couple more right angles i think the radiator is going to be fine with the right

00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:30.960
angles how about you enjoying that your pet water cooling project is like in a sign it's the best

00:04:30.960 --> 00:04:37.120
not challenging right no here we go i just need this right angle

00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:46.960
mm-hmm with this fitting in it to work would you like to buy a vowel thanks

00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:56.240
really we're gonna have to find a lower profile fitting what about the fans at least

00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:04.160
these slim 120s should be enough to handle this as long as we've got two of these radiators in here

00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:09.840
and then we'll put a second radiator in i think what we should probably do is a cut out here with

00:05:09.840 --> 00:05:14.800
a filtered intake and then we'll have these just blowing air out and then we'll just have like a

00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:21.840
big filtered intake in the middle or something like that okay does that make sense yes okay cool

00:05:21.840 --> 00:05:27.520
well here's some additional fans the placeholders for where that other radiator is going to go

00:05:27.520 --> 00:05:37.360
oh tanner yes no we're good the radiators will just have holes and they'll punch through into the

00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:43.120
box that the sign is going to be mounted on so they'll just go straight into the back yes

00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:49.600
easy i don't even need right angle fittings i just realized are you guys working on a piece

00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:54.960
of cardboard look it's only one step down from ikea at this point aren't ikea tables like legitimately

00:05:54.960 --> 00:06:01.520
made of cardboard i'm not wrong yeah we could put stoppers here and this one could also just like

00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:06.880
punch down so that we don't have to worry about clearance for the fittings themselves

00:06:06.880 --> 00:06:12.880
i guess you get to learn how to water block a GPU yes i do prove someone to double check your work

00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:18.720
before you close it okay because there'll be a whole whack of instructions for like where to put

00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:25.920
the thermal pads and stuff so what i would like done is um yeah we get the water loop running

00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:32.480
and then we could just like kind of put the letters on top as best as they'll go and then we should

00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:40.480
have just like a couple strings of leds to kind of stuff into the letters and be like yeah just so

00:06:40.480 --> 00:06:44.800
we have kind of a natural stopping point for the video what happens to the water cooling stuff like

00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:48.800
you know what it doesn't matter it's fine okay anyway we'll need like a custom-shaped filter

00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:52.880
really good way to do that is just with like pantyhose as long as we have some kind of nice

00:06:52.880 --> 00:06:57.680
like finishing for it so that doesn't look stupid we're putting it together all right um i have

00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:03.360
done before and then for these pumps like i would just have them both here just like mounted with

00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:10.720
vhb or something that'll be fine i think this GPU might just barely fit we won't know until the block

00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:15.120
is actually on because we won't know exactly where it sits on the card so how high up this goes

00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:19.920
here motherboard almost certainly will fit does anything else need to go in here no we're just

00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:25.920
going to have the i o running down wow there's a lot of stuff going on yep andy where does this

00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:33.280
frank in the the projects that you've captured before oh my god
