Description

This is just a head's up for anyone else shopping through the mini-rack product resource page thinking about what cases they'd like to use.

I ordered the Flyht Pro rack mentioned on the mini rack page and the internal dimensions are 9.5", but that's between the rails, so if you ordered DeskPi Rackmate shelves in particular (as I did and started planning around, having ordered other hardware assuming it would fit to a standard) you'll find they're too narrow to fit.

I had to superglue one of the support brackets from the back of the DeskPi Mini-ITX shelf to extend the ear. I need to bore out some of the hole as well because the bolts in the Flyht Pro case are too thick to be screwed through as-is.

It's gonna require a bunch of McGuyvering to do this build now, it'd be good to have the page mentioning this case also mention the fact that DeskPi's Rackmate accessories won't work with it.
