I liked a few of the VSOs that were posted earlier and wanted to share two of my more recent creations.

This mount screws into an exposed 2x4 and lets me get my Synology DS418, its power brick, and UPS (APC BE600M1) off a table and into a lower dust area of my basement.

I’ll upload the STLs to printables if anyone is interested, but be warned that the parts are fairly large.

In the spirit of showing parts under unflattering lighting, here’s (nearly) the same angle with a different light source.

    Looks fantastic. I recommend also printing a cover for the UPS sockets with removable covers for the plugs you wish to use as it looks like you have quite a bit of dust circulating there

      Thanks! The NAS and UPS are now in a closet that’s fairly dust free. Before they were in my basement and fairly close to the cat box and my woodshop. Getting everything into the lower dust closet was one of my motivators.

      I should probably blow the UPS off with my air compressor though…
