My ramblings on the stuff that holds it all together
Using Magic Whiteboard paper to document your home lab
Posted by on February 28, 2013
yes, I have a rack in my home lab… they are usually free and easy to come-by if you have the means to transport them and I’ve had this one for a number of years – it has basic shelves inside and all my kit sits inside it reasonably tidily.
Here is a quick tip, get some magic whiteboard paper – like this – this stuff is great and it sticks to pretty much everything using static, no messy adhesive etc.
If you have a spare wall, or in my case a spare side of a rack – it works very well if you stick it to the side of the rack as shown below (the magnets shown in the pic aren’t actually required – it stays on all by itself).
Leave some whiteboard pens nearby and you’ll find yourself actually updating even a basic form of documentation for your home lab regularly.
