Took me about 3 hours to assemble and the end product was disappointing. I wouldn't build this again and will probably return for a half price standard pi rack. Positives: - It looks nice - I can remove individual Pis without taking the rack apart which is required with other rack designs. - The fans are quiet and work well. Cons: - Assembly requires inhuman assembly skills. There is a point where you will need to balance the 8 screws while attaching the part to the rest of the assembly. Great if you have 8 hands. Incredibly uncomfortable for two-handers. - Plastic tabs broke off during assembly. - Instructions are incredibly lacking. The need to properly disassemble and reassemble them was one of the causes of plastic parts breaking - the plastic fasteners do not come loose, they break. - Not enough space between the boards for proper cooling. A redundant rack does not meet some basic requirements. The GPIO pins have no free space. The connected fan wires are immediately bent at a 90 degree angle to the next circuit board. Basically it looks like the engineer thought it was a brilliant design but didn't take into account that it had to be built by human hands or that it had to sit on top of a working raspberry pis.
