In this Studio Tour - 2026, I’m walking you through the whole “where the magic happens” setup—starting with the rack that’s tucked into a closet I cut into the wall on purpose. The goal was simple: keep the heat and noise in the equipment room, but still have the rack look presentable in the studio. From the bottom up you’ll see my donated APC UPS, “Big Bertha” (a big old Xeon box full of spinning rust), a Dell R730 running Windows Server with Hyper-V and dual Tesla P40s for AI work, a production Dell R630 running Proxmox for client hosting, and a few more lab boxes including a Lenovo SR650 V2 on Windows Server 2025 and a Lenovo SE450 on Proxmox 9. Then we head into the equipment room where all the solar and power stuff lives—organized chaos, but safe. I show how I’m feeding panels, how the automatic transfer switch flips me back to grid if I shut down the Victron MultiPlus 2, and how the EG4 is basically there to run mini-splits and act as backup power for the rack. I also show my UniFi network gear (UDM Pro, switches, a new PoE switch I’m testing cameras with), my Synology NAS stack, and the reality of a studio that’s always in progress: bins, benches, projects, and yes… fishes. The big takeaway is this place isn’t “perfect,” but it’s functional, comfortable, and I’m already planning the 2026 cleanup and re-layout to make it cleaner and easier to service.
