Hanging around

Today I remounted the support for the cable tray in TE1. Original position (1) bumped the equipment rack and (2) groaned as weight was applied -- the plywood backboard was not fastened to the wall stud. I added two more screws through the plywood and into the stud and it is now much better. It'll hold a 200 pound load with nary a complaint -- so it should handle the 20-40 pounds of cable it'll be getting without a problem.

As of end of day today, end of week, the carpeting is still on the pallets and the racks are free to wander. They ARE getting the printer cabinets installed.... with the cabinets covering up the electric and LAN outlets. *SIGH* I'm going to assume that they know what they are doing and will make suitable cut-outs in the back and top to allow connecting the printers that will be sitting on top of the printer cabinets to power and LAN. But I'll be checking and will complain if they get bolted to the wall without the cuts.
