And if you print a ModTen rack, tag me—I’d love to see it! This fully modular, 3D-printable server rack is built to fit standard 10-inch networking gear and is perfect for small offices, home labs, or anyone who wants a custom, budget-friendly setup. But was it worth it in terms of cost, 3d print time, and usability? Let’s find out!
