Alright guys so if you haven't seen my other posts I'd suggest you do that before you go any farther.

So I was getting pumped to make my second liquid cooled xbox aquarium and I went on amazon and found this: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Now I doubt if an xbox can fit inside but I had an idea that it would not be so hard to turn this "magic globe" into the guy from Portal 2 or the monitor Guilty Spark from Halo.
And also how would the pumping work? An excelent way to cool it off no doubt! But because oil is more dense would it not work? And a bit over my budget. But it is a cool concept.

I don't think there is much need for a proper tutorial but just pictures with some instructions. I would like to try to see you get that xbox out the metal shell then into that circle tank with a tiny hole for water. Properly going to have to cut it open.

Good Luck

Ok so I did happen to get a tank. It's a 3 gallon so pretty small but I was on a budget remember and would save me money by saving mineral oil. Here is the tank.
