How many cables you need to wire up a desk PC with fans, RGB lighting and, power and all the other cables? The answer is: A lot!

After some first test wiring I realized quickly that I will need a proper concept in order to figure out a proper and clean cable management. So I went back to the drawing board and started to put all the wires and lines into a drawing:

In addition I had to figure out a way to keep cables routed within the desk. After various design iterations I had the following item designed. The cool thing about it: It doesn’t require any tools to install. You simply shift it into the t-profile and that’s it. Thanks to 3d printing I can set it to any size so that I am flexible where and how to route cables
