"Bunsen's Folly" was a play on words (my SOP for good & ill) which has proven particularly apt in this case. "Ericsson's Folly" was the USS Monitor, which turned out to be quite a success, and "Bunsen's Folly has now morphed into two hacks, one of which may prove something useful . . .
. . . as a "Monitor" no less! :
I've had a TelCo Rack for over ten years now, and I've always wanted to do a RackMountMacHack! I went so far as to bend up a Galvanized Steel RackMount KBD Drawer Carcass, but I've never bothered to finish it. Well, it seems the time to do so has finally arrived!
Front view of confiuguration using a redundant IIfx PSU Case, showing my $12 semi-borked "Duping VCR" with editing input and 4 Channel sound outputs. I'm not so sure what the "DJ" portion of the frontplate means, but I figure it's worth a little work to get this sucker up and running! [

Here's a slightly oblique view of the config with a Q630 class PSU . . .
Here's an aerial shot of the setup, the only mistake I made was to "mount" the HDDs "backwards"
. . . but it wasn't worth the effort to do another set of shots . . . }
Anyways, I've got about 1.300 VHS Tapes to transfer to DVD . . . don't laugh . . . I haven't watched TV for almost 10 years now and they cost $0.99 ea. at Goodwill, which ius cheaper than NetFlix and I get to keep 'em . . . [] ]'>
. . . or, then again, I could just download "backup copies" that'd be wide screen formatted & pre-chaptered. }
Whatever . . . now I've got two Clear Plexi Hacks to add to the rest of my list! :
