Home Made Test Bench

[Hero7750]

I recently watched @Slicks video on the LTT YouTube channel about building your own test bench and I had an old case I don't need so I decided to strip the case down and build my own test bench! It's not the prettiest and yes I used hot glue to attach the legs, but it does what I need and I'm excited to start using it

 

If anyone else has built their own test bench/ anything else PC related, I would also love to see what you have built (post in the comments)

The first pic makes it look lop sided but it isn't that lop sided irl

Not enough cardboard.

I wonder if the PSU would sag/droop since it doesn't appear to be supported by anything.

Oh okay, I wasn't sure if you were planning on putting the PSU where the original PSU slot was.

Also I noticed that HP logo on the side panel. Would the case that you salvaged possibly had been an HP case in its former life?

The HP side panel and the the other sheets of metal came from the same case

So basically, yes. The case you salvaged was from an HP case.

This is kind of a test bench. It is a Gateway 2000 computer case that was beat up in a trash dump. I rescued it and did this with it. It is about fifteen pounds empty. I have a pretty crummy pc in it right now, but I may upgrade it later.
