Ceiling Hanging "U" Racks

There is a reason that Architects and Engineers are different jobs. All the floor plans I've put together maximize workflow and usable space while being efficient and cheap to build. They also look like a giant box.
 
Well, I ran all the co-ax runs through the Ortronics patch panel last night. Here's where the rack stands right now.



I also cleaned up about half the wiring along the ceiling in the basement. Once I'm done with the other half I will do a better job with the wiring going into the rack and I will be done with this area.

As a designer, FLW was meticulous and thorough. The problem was that there was not much flexibility in the design in case you did not buy the FLW way wholesale. There was no tinkering in a FTW structure. Compound that with the engineering flaws (leaks!).


ps. The discussion of FLW in SD's thread should not be taken to reflect on the quality of SD's design or craftsmanship. Lookin' good!
