Project MINI RACK is a project dedicated to designing, documenting, and showcasing compact, portable rack-mount or small-form factor “mini” labs, suitable for home labs, edge deployments, or mobile network stacks. The repository contains build guides, hardware lists, layout ideas (10” wide racks, 1U/2U modules, custom shelves), 3D printable components, and real-world examples of mini homelab rigs. Its goal is to help hobbyists, devops engineers, or tinkerers understand how to build efficient, space-conscious infrastructure rather than large server racks. It also covers the ecosystem around small racks: power distribution units (PDUs), patch panels, cable management, 3D-printed rack shelves, and integration of SBCs, mini-PCs, switches, and storage. The project is community-oriented, inviting users to share build-showcases, discuss parts availability, adapt designs, and refine standards.
Features
- Detailed build guides, hardware lists, and real-world examples for 10”-wide mini racks
- 3D-printable shelf designs and rack components for DIY builds
- Sections for PDUs, patch panels, mini-PC/Server shelves, network gear, and other accessories
- Modular specification to accommodate SBCs, mini-PCs, storage, and edge computing gear
- Community build-showcase support and issue tracking for shared designs
- License and open documentation so you can adapt or remix for your own lab
