Half way through the construction I had to stop myself. I was building the rack using the old way of thinking&#8230;.hardware store, nuts &#038; bolts. It was time to employ my new method of thinking about solutions to problems since I&#8217;m now a &#8220;maker&#8221;, I suppose.The rackThe wood was already cut and the frame already bolted together when I decided to employ my new capabilities. The brackets were designed around that fact. I don&#8217;t have precision wood working tools so my cuts are a little sloppy and so is my hole drilling. Ironically, the 3D printed brackets gave the rack a cleaner look than I could ever make it. A few 1\/2&#8243; wood screws later and the frame is sturdy.I still need to fasten some boards to mount my cable modem and wifi router. I think I&#8217;ll design brackets for that. I&#8217;m definitely going to design a wall mount bracket that will be adjustable so that you can wall mount this to studs. And when I get the cable ran I&#8217;ll print some items to mount to the frame to make sure the cables are neat. The design needs some tweaking (hindsight), but once I&#8217;m done I&#8217;ll make the collection available on thingiverse. http:\/\/ift.tt\/2a7yekb<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I was building a network rack since I am going to wire my home with Gigabit Ether (tired of wireless).
