  I'm new to "home labbing" and all this talk about "10 inches" and "racks" is locking me in.

  Did you see they have a half height mini rack now!? What&apos;s next, a 1U mini 10&quot; rack? lol<br><br>My wheels are turning, thinking of building like &apos;Homelab, 3 ways&apos; with three of these things.

  Hi I&apos;m heron. I&apos;m glad someone is finding useful one of my designs.<br><br>To solve the power supply nightmare I simply converted all barrel jacks to Power Delivery over Type C. Now I can plug everything to the same DIY PD power supply (a 24V PSU + a SW3518 board from china), which is capable of supplying 5V, 9V, 12V and 20V (which is fine for my 19V n100 itx board).<br>Speaking about the KVM, I DIYd one installing PiKVM on a spare Pi2. I have a design on printables that moves the HDMI, USB and Ethernet ports on the front using standard keystones.<br><br>I confirm It&apos;s a lot of fun. To this date I&apos;ve already built 3 mini racks.

  10 inch rack is definitely not a gimmick! I have a small apartment and there would be no way I could store a full size 19&quot; rack. It lets me keep my gear organized. I have some basic network equipment (patch panel, switch, cable modem, router) and a few Rasberry Pi&apos;s all packed into a single 10&quot; cabinet. I love it.

  I have a fully 3D printed 10&quot; rack that I designed to fit perfectly in an IKEA usit, have two rpis, a switch and my router in there and it works a dream.<br>Edit: Since so many asked there is now a community post on my channel with a couple of pictures and info about my rack.

  Wow! That&apos;s a fantastic combination! The explanation in this video is also very, very nice. Thank you so much for your recognition of our product. I didn&apos;t expect that 3D printed parts would enrich the configuration of the shelves on both sides, which really surprised our team, haha! Looking forward to more DIY videos, I really enjoy them!
