2×4 Chalk/DryErase board $8
1×6×12' common board $12
Hinges $4

Not much room in the 60 cube stand so I decided to build a cabinet for the electrics.

Cut 1/4" slot in 1×6 , 2 1/2" in back for cords and power bricks, and 2 3/4 in front.for controllers and power strips. Once paint dries on outer edges of door I can cut some holes and start mounting components.

I ruined the door so had to buy a 2×2 sheet of 1/4" plywood, $9. Due to the thin-ness and not wanting screws to go through I super-glued the hinges, which would have worked fine except I knocked it off of the work table so the laminate it was glued to ripped away. New door installed, paint is drying now. Should start mounting components tomorrow.
