cowboyup3371 Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 I built a new computer this past weekend to let me process photos and videos better. However, my desk space is very limited because I also have my work laptop, docking station, and dual monitors taking up the real estate. So I also bought a Keyboard, Video, and Mouse (KVM) switch box to swap between the two systems and not have to use multiple peripherals. I didn’t like the idea of it sitting on the floor so I made this to mount it to the wall.

Birchbark Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 I like it, nice. But i like my switch close, so i can quickly switch back and forth. Having it mounted to the wall, do you need to get up each time you want to switch computers? Russell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hoped to have done that this evening but worked called at the last second and said we had to put in 3-1/2 hours OT so it's too late to set the anchors in the wall tonight for it. I'll post up something this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
