My brother, Brian, is coming to visit this summer. That means the computer room must became a guest room. We've been toying with ways to mount the server off the floor and out of the way. I basically took a 4' deep rack mount case and hung it by it's face. Then added some rinky-dink shelves below that to hold the server equipment. Pics...

The before; using beer carton as shelf suppot.

The shelf supports sans server. Offset bolts to hit studd. 2" lag bolts.

Server two angles



Blanket hung from angel hooks to muffle noise

Network & UPS on lower shelves. Don't protrude past closet portal.
