KVM Switch Box Mount

[cowboyup3371]

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.

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?

Looks good. Can you post a pic of it in use?

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.

I mounted it to the wall tonight; please ignore the power cables to the left as my Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) sits right there and I haven't bothered to clean that up
