This old chestnut has been around for ages. However, it’s suck a good one, I’d put it in for the sake of reference in case folk haven’t seen it.

You know Ikea’s standard cheap coffee occasional table, Lack? It just happens to be just the right width for a home hacked server rack! Perfect for re-purposing old rackmounted kit that might come your way that would otherwise go to waste.

Massive props to eth0.nl for a genius bit of practical hackery.

This is very cool. I have a bunch of outboard audio gear. I might see if I can get it mounted in one of these. :slight_smile:

As long as it’s got standard 19" mounting centers, there should be no problem. I love that they’ve re-purposed standard PCI blanking plates as rear support brackets,
