 Thats my server you see there. Stupid thing is waaaayyy to hot, so I have a fan on it 24/7. But that's nothing compared to this:  That is all the phone jacks in our house. There! I fixed it!

Lets see it.
I am not sure what mine is, but this is probably up there:
I was testing a waterblock, so I got water from the sink straight in to the block, and poured right back into the sink.
...and yes, the monitor is hanging by a rope.
all of the empty kirkland brand detergent bottles on the chipped up warped desk in the background really add to this piece

I have a new one for you guys.  Today I was taking the engine and gearbox out of a VN commodore. Well I got really really greasy and dusty. So I had a shower latter on and took with me a can of degreaser. I knew very well soap was not good enough to get this stuff off.

I "borrow" the neighbors bandwidth sometimes...can't say why.   Monitor is tied back by 50lb. fishing line.  Wireless adapter hot glued to the roof with my custom weather protection...yes a soda bottle hot glued to the base...this thing has survived ~17 inches of snow total and many days of rain, only thing that effects it is extremely low temperatures.

You think that's bad? Here's mine.  The orange and blue wires are from the jack I installed back in the summer.

Too bad I didnt take a picture of it but as I was coming out of the movie theater tonight, I saw a couple trying to place a full sized couch into the back of a Hyundai Tuscon. Hilarious as the woman screams at the man while he just stands there scratching his head. It was so rude of me but I couldn't help but stare and laugh!

Nateman, very nice. This thread is a mini- this. bk - that is disturbing on so many levels. mongoose - very nice! I never had pics and this was a long time ago, but I didnt have enough molexs on a PSU in an old dell P2 and I had a dead PSU, so I cut off a few molex connectors from the dead one and spliced them onto the good one. Not bad, right? Well, I didnt have electrical tape, so I used masking tape instead to prevent shorts - it was like that until I retired the machine a few years later. ~Fus

Come on guys... THIS is top ghetto. FISHING line... at least I used ROPE! :P
and the 3 liter cover... EPIC GHETTO.

Haha..awesome! I knew my little setup would be worth posting. Gotta make use of the open wifi spots around here one way or another.  I only use it when the neighbors are away so they don't get mad.

I like the soda bottle.
Maybe you should switch to a seltzer bottle though, it's clear instead of bright green.

Got a little bit more ghetto.. Remember this..? Took it down to put a different hard rive in it.  Clip that holds the CPU fan down broke off so I had to rig it up a little..  Only idea I had was something to hold it down when I shut the case...a piece of wood...  Works pretty good. Job well done...or something like that.
