Cable Management for PC Repair Station

I was cleaning up around the office yesterday and had a brain storm for the cables I use for PC’s that I repair.

It was usually a rats nest of cables, which I was really tired of, so I came up with this solution

I first cut the 2" x 12" piece, then cut it in half length wise.

I then drilled and counter sunk 1/8" holes in the side piece 1a.

Then using 1 1/2 all purpose screws I put 1a & 1b back together.

I then cut 6 1/4" holes for the cables and cut dado that matched my side board (2) and top board (3)

Once that was done I glued and nailed 2 & 3 to 1b, be sure to take off part 1a. I didn't and had to cut it off.

I added corner blocks 4a and 4b to help support the joint between parts 2 and 3.

Once the glue has set you can paint it what ever color you want. I had some blue laying around so....

Once your paint is dry and set just lay in the cables and screw 1a to 1b.

Be sure not tie off or hinder the cables,

I was going to add some Velcro to the side but it says in place all by itself.
