Part 2: Reading Fan / Water Pump RPM
In part one I covered how to connect two temperature sensors and the LCD to our Aruino. In this installment I am going to show you how to read the RPM of the water pump. The Arduino Controlled PC Watercooling Information Display will display the water pumps RPM on one screen so I had to figure out how to read the RPM from the data output by a Hall effect sensor...more after the jump...

Google Sketchup Model of Thermaltake Armor+.
A good plan is key to the success of any work of art. In the old days we had to draw these plans by hand using good old pen and paper. Today we have a wealth of tools available to us that offer an unlimited amount of options for us to plan our project down to the last screw. Google Sketchup, Alibre Design, and Blender are usually my tools of choice for 3d design work, and tonight I chose Google Sketchup for the 3d work on the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 case mod. I spent some time in sketchup tonight modeling the Armor+ from scratch. I am no where near finished but it is to scale and will provide me a virtual place to test out ideas before I commit to them. Check out the full update here.
