An update. Real job has been brutal last two weeks leaving me less time to work on my project.
I did assemble the rack though (got it off craigslist for $100 like 9 months ago). The front inside rail is bent in a roughly 4" section which is why the PDU and switch is put mid rack.

Pretty empty so far but hopefully more by next week.
I got the manifold mounted on plywood (which is going to mount to the side of the rack).
