Plastic tape covering the aluminum.. 20 mil "pipe wrap" is useful stuff. 3M
VHB double stick foam tape to hold it in place.
But, enough of this feeble lash-up idea: I think the real solution is to have
a second cluster doing a complete finite element model of the instantaneous

No way, at least not anywhere near the motherboard. There isn't going
to be a way to fasten it very tightly into position, just tape probably,
possibly a zip tie at the back end. So it would be best if the shroud
cannot short things out or scratch c

Also thin aluminum. You can get aluminum sheeting that you can cut with
scissors and that is easy to bend into shapes if you have a bending jig
(or can make one with two pieces of board stock and a vise). Cheap,
fireproof, meltproof at any temperatures

Paper doesn't catch fire at 451F.. it does start to turn brown. (Sorry Ray..)
(I cook bacon on a rack over paper in a 450 degree oven.. and I doubt the
temperature control is that tight)
Flammability is an issue.. paper is rougher than most plastics, so a spark can
lodge or a small fiber could c

That never crossed my mind.
You sure about the flammability? I believe it for the ignition due
Cardboard? Card stock? Masking tape? White glue? (that's what I usually use for
cooling ducts.. easy to cut, glue, tape..) It's no more flammable than
plastic, and it doesn't melt and get soft. Papier Mache, works too.
On the other hand, if you want to mold a smooth curve, then plastic is the w
David,
I have experimented with some simple ducting for my Limulus
system. I found a Vinyl Flashing from Union Corrugating Company
(purchased at Lowes home center) that has some nice features, it is
bendable, holds its shape, easy to cut, and has a low carbon content
(harder to burn than most plas
Anybody know of a nice cheap, high melting point, easy to work with
sheet material, for making a custom air shroud?
We have one box with stuff in it that looks similar to HDPE, the
material the white flexible cutting boards are made of, but it is a bit
thinner and more rigid that that. Unfortun
