I like some of the ideas for mountings from this video, namely the ones for the mini pcs, will look into them.

I want to implement 3d min pc nodes with the structure from This homelab setup is my favorite one yet.
I am thinking of two Venus UM790 Pro Mini PC’s and a mini nas like the Beelink ME Mini NAS which is perfect for a 10 inch rack.
