like what about second 15 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:03,920 projector about second projector screen and so I made the custom wall with you 16 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:08,400 know projectors I don't know what my expectations were but this is them any 17 00:01:06,799 --> 00:01:13,080 who there's not actually that much in the way of awful Cable Management in 18 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:17,320 here I

got to love it and then 31 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:20,360 can you explain this to me because I um 32 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:25,360 don't music so this is a Digi design control 24 and it only worked with a few 33 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:30,000 versions of Protools because avid's an evil evil company I was taught that 34 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:35,319 these are basically just a big mouse the nice thing about this one in particular 35 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:37,519 is it's motorized so when changes happen 36 00:02:35,319 --> 00:02:41,519 in the Box here they're reflected in the unit somebody wrote a 37 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:46,400 piece of software where you can connect it to anything including Ableton and it 38 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:50,800 also has a midi mode which is pretty cool too okay cool and this is your 39 00:02:48,879 --> 00:02:55,560 mouse pad yeah cuz I don't have enough room for you know a normal mouse pad 40 00:02:53,360 --> 00:03:00,239 when I'm using this thanks I hate it yeah and then when I am not using it I 41 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:04,519 use this I hate it slightly less yeah it's kind of a bit better moving over 42 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:08,560 here I like your rack Dan thank thank you uh you got a 280 TI the GPU actually 43 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:12,680 came from one of the other things that I won at the Christmas party which was 44 00:03:10,239 --> 00:03:15,480 that giant Digital Storm PC with the LT on it thought you'd never use it you 45 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:19,959 thought you'd leave it for so long that the die separates from the water yeah 46 00:03:17,920 --> 00:03:24,280 well I haven't really had time to like finish out my living room computer right 47 00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:29,879 now it has a 390 in it and then there's two more 390s there and then this 2080 48 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:31,879 TI and this 2080 TI cuz I mostly just 49 00:03:29,879 --> 00:03:38,040 like I don't know do DS game emulation it also has two CPUs for about 112 50 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:39,439 threads and 128 gigs of ECC memory cuz 51 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:44,000 you know I got to watch YouTube videos in the living room right so this is an 52 00:03:41,439 --> 00:03:47,640 in progress project it's amazing that you talked for that long and yet I have 53 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:52,000 more questions than when you started what's in here is that the C that that 54 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:56,000 thing is made of no the C box is in the living 55 00:03:53,680 --> 00:04:00,599 room that's the name of the living room PC whoa that joke's not safe for YouTube 56 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:05,599 but you can check out the uncensored version on LMG g/f flat plane but don't 57 00:04:03,799 --> 00:04:10,159 worry the rest of the jokes are good old familyfriendly fun that's what this 58 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:16,160 house is all about do you have a cat no that is for nail polish oh why is that 59 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:22,160 for a cat oh it's good for finding where they peed there's a not yet I mean I can 60 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:27,160 see how it all happens yeah exactly with all this lewd material lying around mhm 61 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:33,160 okay so what's the plan we get to work Absol a lot of cable 62 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:37,120 management there's a lot of cables Step One is we've got to get access to the 63 00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:40,639 back of this desk and I assume the best way to do that is kind of slide out this 64 00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:45,240 side a little we're actually going to be taking the whole desk out oh my God yeah 65 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:48,919 Dan has made a custom new desk that's going to go in this space so we got a 66 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:55,020 lot of moving to do like everything's just coming out of here everything 67 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:56,960 everything to where garbage I can't 68 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,520 wait it's so heavy 69 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:09,000 damage per second is not something that I really want in a gaming chair yeah I 70 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:13,560 left the to wear the or the back both of them ah great good 71 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:23,240 stuff good work guys here we go SP it down for a 72 00:05:18,319 --> 00:05:27,479 second no no God Dan stop 73 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:29,160 stop little F what is falling Dan's got 74 00:05:27,479 --> 00:05:34,199 this ingenious way to mount his monitor so that they're directed at him it's a 75 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:37,199 screwdriver do you know how much prime Acoustics are I'm not going to buy 76 00:05:35,479 --> 00:05:40,680 entire new ones most of this EUR racks by 77 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:45,800 intelligel who I believe are local boys shout out intelligel this rack's cool 78 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:48,240 cuz it's 19in and it's also uh desk 79 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:53,160 stand as well I like this one it's wow is this the same company 80 00:05:50,919 --> 00:05:57,440 that makes the computers I highly doubt it cuz that thing's actually good 81 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:13,919 thumbnail a spaghetti day I'm having an Italian food day too much a noa's 82 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:19,919 cooking you're so skinny you should eat something no mama let me o do something 83 00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:23,880 about this mess with our sponsor Odo you see you probably have all kinds 84 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:28,680 of different software for different things like accounting project 85 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:34,680 management stop zooming in my house HR and lead generation and of course 86 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:37,000 marketing wait what is that doing there 87 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:41,199 stop wasting time on app hunting ODU is an allinone platform for everything you 88 00:06:39,039 --> 00:06:45,240 need kind of like a magic toolbox I just finished sending an invoice I got paid 89 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:49,840 and I even reported Dan for stealing things from the office all here on Odo 90 00:06:47,639 --> 00:06:53,560 with no sweat involved try for yourself with their 15-day free trial of all 91 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:57,680 their apps check out the link in the video description now let's put things 92 00:06:55,360 --> 00:07:01,720 back so we can continue our video oh come on so do you see why cable managing 93 00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:06,599 is hard now are you going to know where all of this goes back into yeah I made a 94 00:07:03,879 --> 00:07:10,800 plan that's part of what those are for so this is basically where everything 95 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:14,160 plugs in I've labeled all of these in a little map of where everything's going 96 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:17,199 to go I'll take them from you this is uh this is what Flo plane looks like Luke's 97 00:07:15,879 --> 00:07:23,240 in charge of Floatplane I know for a fact this make sure that it doesn't like 98 00:07:20,479 --> 00:07:23,240 constantina 99 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:30,919 sideways ow one of the reasons I'm so excited for this desk and for the doctor 100 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:35,680 to come in here because I'm an advocate for my own care I've designed this desk 101 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:39,680 to work specifically with MCM so we've got two steel tubes along the back here 102 00:07:37,479 --> 00:07:43,759 which should perfectly fit one of these XL 103 00:07:40,919 --> 00:07:48,159 arches that'll create an integrated cable channel right in the back of the 104 00:07:45,199 --> 00:07:51,720 desk all of them kind of connect to each other so this cable channel will run 105 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:55,360 perfectly along the entire back side of the desk and if we want to get cables 106 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:59,919 out of the back side of the desk we can just put them like there and bring them 107 00:07:57,879 --> 00:08:03,479 out easy now the last thing we have to do is just get this thing assembled we 108 00:08:01,919 --> 00:08:08,840 got the leggies and they're going to bolt in like n this is one of the first 109 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:15,000 welding projects that I've ever done so some of them are nice and his tinan says 110 00:08:12,039 --> 00:08:18,879 uh Grinders and paint make me the welder I ain't who designed the desk me is 111 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:24,319 there anywhere that people could learn about how you designed it there is I did 112 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:28,520 a Floatplane exclusive part of Dan 113 00:08:24,319 --> 00:08:28,520 week get out 114 00:08:30,879 --> 00:08:40,279 n Dan why are your pants so wet you also got a server rack yeah why cuz you took 115 00:08:36,959 --> 00:08:42,479 mying rack oh yeah all of those are like 116 00:08:40,279 --> 00:08:46,240 all of the stuff has the stuff has to go back in the stuff so I got a what's it 117 00:08:44,680 --> 00:08:49,800 called like a relay Rack or something like that which is more like a 118 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:52,920 skeletonized rack I got a whole bunch of cables from infinite cables we'll show 119 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:56,240 them off later I'm really excited I figured it was easier to like get all 120 00:08:54,640 --> 00:09:00,040 new cables than sorting out that Rat's Nest and this is also something they 121 00:08:57,959 --> 00:09:04,720 sell too which is pretty sick not super expensive and probably a little Overkill 122 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:10,959 but it was the best kind of thing that I thought to do you can see it's like a 123 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:13,200 209 28 U Rack or something like that not 124 00:09:10,959 --> 00:09:17,640 too bad I should have got rack studs as well that was a mistake hey look at the 125 00:09:14,959 --> 00:09:20,760 rack stun yeah so the rest of the plan is going to be we're going to move the 126 00:09:19,279 --> 00:09:24,880 desk into its final position we're going to get all of the stuff back in here on 127 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:28,560 it and then we're going to Route all of those cables into this rack and it's 128 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:32,120 going to be really smooth and there's not going to be any problem problem s 129 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:39,440 everything's going to go great no one's going to cry Dan Dan not on camera Dan 130 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:42,920 do not cry so loud you're on mic uh 131 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,580 computer time um sure monitors let's get 132 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:52,360 everything up there thank you yeah that goes right 133 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:57,079 there let's goes the other way 134 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:04,120 now the cable management is great but it's always a good idea to start with 135 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:08,320 properly length cables you don't want a whole bunch of excess kind of baled up 136 00:10:06,079 --> 00:10:12,040 under your desk so I went and got a whole bunch of these perfectly length 137 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:18,200 cables from Phantom cable which will help us redo everything 138 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:21,519 to be super neat movie movie 139 00:10:19,839 --> 00:10:27,720 Switch normal whole Patch 140 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:32,399 Adams I was going to say Frey 141 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:32,399 Friday Christ and this is why I need 142 00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:40,440 MCM uh Dan you said you had a good use for the cable ties oh yeah cuz I'm 143 00:10:37,839 --> 00:10:44,760 trying to mount this uh HDMI cable to like a vertical surface but the these 144 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:49,200 ones don't work on vertical surfaces cuz they have to do that way so the cable 145 00:10:46,839 --> 00:10:52,760 ties go vertical so you can mount them vertically one cool trick that we found 146 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,760 out about these cable tie holders that we didn't even think about when we were 147 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,320 developing them is that if you have say like short cable ties and you can't hold 148 00:10:57,279 --> 00:11:04,079 the whole bundle of what you're trying to hold you can actually route two of 149 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:08,320 them through this so you can have two runs of cables going parallel by just 150 00:11:06,839 --> 00:11:13,959 putting instead of wrapping them all the way around the bottom you just wrap them through there look at that you can have 151 00:11:11,279 --> 00:11:16,920 two runs going we've taken our magnetic power bar keys and we've hooked them up 152 00:11:15,560 --> 00:11:21,680 so you just kind of put them through the little hole and you slide them in to lock them and then you tighten them down 153 00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:26,200 bada bing bada boom that's not in the way 154 00:11:31,839 --> 00:11:37,800 Dan stop not at the Dan not at work wow 155 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:44,399 this is great progress you guys much better thanks okay I'm kidding oh wow 156 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:49,560 that sarcastic thing I said before but again do you guys need some help we 157 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:53,240 would love some help oh I love your desk though Dan Isn't it nice this looks 158 00:11:51,639 --> 00:11:57,040 great yeah it looks like the last thing we got to kind of do is the rack and 159 00:11:54,639 --> 00:12:02,560 kind of get everything terminated here um but I think most of most of the stuff 160 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:05,680 I'm back right now you came back thank you most of the stuff is going to end up 161 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:10,600 here and then I think that's about it can I mount some stuff in a rack or what can I do yeah let's get some stuff in 162 00:12:08,639 --> 00:12:16,560 the rack did we not bring him rack studs do we not love Dan nope okay right there 163 00:12:13,519 --> 00:12:19,079 and right there yeah okay I got you Dan 164 00:12:16,560 --> 00:12:24,920 the space looks amazing well looks like it has the bones of amazing all right 165 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:29,440 what else can I write I yes okay yes good yes 166 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:35,279 under dude this thing is heavy for not being on Rails of any sort oh yeah 167 00:12:32,839 --> 00:12:39,399 also it's called a liquid Channel but did you really have to get liquid on it 168 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:44,560 I don't know I wouldn't touch it the previous owner I'm going to not finish Ence where 169 00:12:42,839 --> 00:12:48,279 do you want this power play pro oh under the liquid would work sure and could you 170 00:12:46,519 --> 00:12:53,160 pull the like in the in the sink or the bathtub uh 171 00:12:50,680 --> 00:12:56,100 bathtub sinkless stainless sorry you want the rack out yeah if you could just 172
