I want to rack mount regular desktops?

Hey guys.

 

I have been toying with the idea of building a desk with a computer built in. I have had an idea for a while, but I also have another Lenovo ThinkServer in the house that I would love to also put in the desk if possible (It is also in a normal desktop case).

   

My first thought was to just build everything in a rack server and use the rack server as one of the legs on the desk. However, it seems like they really aren't large enough to house everything you'd want in a desktop PC, nor would it have the correct IO ports and such. I'm not against making my own front panel if I have something to start with (an empty, plain drawer).

If I could find large enough blank drawers that I could fit a PC case into?

I essentially want big ass metal drawers that can support weight and I could fit a standard PC case into it (I'll make my own cuts and minor welds or what ever is needed).

What is the question? You should be able to achieve what you want with a little work.
