the joke is on me... counting out 156 screws per Tube from 15,000-17,000 thousand bulk screws I was sent.... here comes the scale method and sandwich bags...

Better hope they used heavier bags then used with my shipment. .225 mil plastic, probably lasted 10 minutes in shipping.

So you do have 1 hashing now?  What sort of stats are you getting?

Please tell me this is a joke. This has got to be a joke.

Nope, in fact it is 156 2M x 5mm to properly hold 4 hash boards to cooling rig. I tried less and had erratic heat issues. All 156 in and she is warming up nice 96.37% and climbing..  onto finish #2.

So has anyone actually built one of these and had it work?  I was reading the other thread and no one has them working after multiple days?

Once I got all the parts and assembled took 10 minutes to setup, although I am a Network engineer with 10+ years exp.  but if you have worked with ants you know that you will need to create a sub-net to create 192.168.0.X network.

yes indeed 144 screws holes to hold all 4 boards to the heat sinks. tiny little shits too  Shocked

Also that is not counting a handful of holes which are off to the side, as I said still no hashing boards so I am not entirely sure if they are needed. Still counting what I received to then divide by 10.



Looks like 1440 to me, still counting.

Seems the .5mil bags they put the hardware in fell apart found remnants in box.

Did you order like 100 of these. That would be 15600 screws!

One of the boxes has a noise coming from it...

Not sure if that is enough, guess I have to separate them out...  FUN!

I am pretty sure that is not enough..  4 x 10 units = 40 - 15 = 25 Short by my count..  Friedcat any help?

Will continue after I actually get full delivery.........

WOW!!! speechless...

Can you tell me how many screws are needed for 1 tube in total?

Looks like 4 - 4M x 55mm(allen head, 4 nylon washers), 4 - 4M x 8mm(phillips head), and 144 - 2M x 6mm(phillips head); each machine.
Hmmm... I got 39*4=156 for smallest screws that hold PCB to the heatsink. sidehack confirmed with me.

Looking at Dogie's guide for the Tusnami, there are 36 screws for each board.

https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3868/14632156588_262621eeb5_o.jpg

There are a couple of extra holes as well, so 144 + 4-6 extra screws. That is a shit load of screws.

I am plugging in my screw driver batteries now.

Depends on how well you want the thermal transfer between the board and the heat sinks to work.  Order up a decent screwdriver (dual-action or electric) and you'll be done in no time Smiley

That can't possibly be true?!!   Huh

That many screws to put together an ASICMiner Tube?  That can't be right...

Talk about having a loose screw!   Tongue

Well they Finally made it...  ALMOST!  DHL lost the 2 boxes with the hash cards in them, really??  Anyway they were located and "should" arrive this evening. Check that I get the pleasure of going and picking them up. Hey Dogie is that part of the Bulk discount experience?

That being said, I begin preparing for the build out,
