Got a lot of old computer hardware laying around?
I have a lot of old computer hardware laying around sitting in boxes, and I thought it would be a cool idea to display them on my wall. I first thought of nailing them through the holes usually in most PC hardware to an extremely large cork board, but then I thought of shadow boxes!
Shadow boxes come in many sizes and can be bought at pretty much any arts and crafts store. I bought a 9×11″ shadow box at Garden Ridge Pottery for $12(USD) and you can place pretty much any single slot PCI or AGP card in it with ease. (other than those long PCI/AT cards)
I’m going to eventually get more and cover my entire wall with old PC hardware, but for right now this will have to do.

I have decided to do this in my new place. If you see any interesting hardware around the office lit me know.
