Honeycomb as a sidewall for the KWS Rack

https://makerworld.com/de/models/2139130-kws-rack-v-2-heavy-duty-10-inch-homelab-rack#profileId-2317125

This sidewall is an add-on for the KWS Rack v2 and covers the area from U1 to U6. The honeycomb structure ensures high rigidity with minimal material usage and gives the rack a modern, technical look. The large openings maintain ventilation for internal hardware, while cables and components neatly disappear behind the sidewall.

The wall is directly attached to the frame structure of the KWS Rack v2 and is precisely fitted for the 10-inch format. It is suitable for both open homelab setups and partially enclosed builds with additional panels.

Recommended Print Settings

  • Material: PLA, PETG, or ABS, depending on the application environment.
  • Layer height: 0.2 mm for a good compromise between detail and print time.
  • Infill: 15–25%, depending on desired stability (the honeycomb structure already contributes significantly).
  • Perimeters: 3–4 outer lines for additional rigidity.

Optionally, you can differentiate the color of the sidewall to highlight the honeycomb pattern and visually adapt your KWS Rack v2 to the rest of your setup.

So I used these as a basis to create OpenGrid sidewalls. I wanted to give you credit by posting it as a remix, but the license does not allow me to do so. Are you ok with me posting them or can you change your license terms to allow remixes?

totally stole your color profile and I definitely need that Proxmox 1U badge. Any chance you could share the STL or 3MF for it? Also, if possible, I’d love the STL for the honeycomb sidewalls. When I try exporting to STL, it only gives me a 3MF, and I’m just getting started with 3D modeling. I want to clean up some non-manifold edges Bambu Studio flagged, make it a bit easier to work with, and maybe add LED holes to each honeycomb. so it can have a levl indicator and change color for high heat or load. not sure yet but that side of things is my comfort zone. Thinking could display heat or load along the side wall. add some wire conduit. If you have the CAD file, that would be amazing. A clean STL would still help a lot too — I’m pretty sure I can convert it, but having the original would make learning easier. Thanks again for the awesome ideas and for such a great addition to a project a lot of us are excited about.

i was able to do it! and add new material. first test is this but it will eventually be transparent. I would like your Stauber1 i would like to make it available. my version is printed in but would like to release a version that snaps together where the top larger cutout meets the bevel. then people could run their own wires. i could make this from scratch now but its your idea and would not have spent days learning if it was not for you! be happy to send you what i have.

Right, that's why I was asking if you had a link to it. Nevermind, I found it.
