Seems like a cool project, but he's right, there's not enough tech that supports this form factor.
Maybe I'll integrate some rack space into my next remodel project.

Do you mean in the sense that there's not enough competition/variety in the existing types of available tech or that there are types of tech that you can't find at all?
both ?

That's kinda my issue as well. I have a core 24 port L3 switch that's multigig POE and a 3 disk NAS.
The NAS I could technically downsize with a little bit of tinkering and money.
The switch will be hard to miniaturize.
Thankfully my router is already 1/2U and 1/2 width so that's easy to migrate.

fuck, more and more reasons to buy a 3D printer :(

I'm not really up to date on homelabbing hardware, but I'm surprised to see how much the whole thing is centered around raspis given how expensive they are for their relatively low capacities. Possibility of offgriding your homelab is an interesting project but not what I'd center this "revolution" around given most homelabs stay, well, home.
DIY 10" racks for second hand mini PCs would interest me way more but looking at the YouTuber's big lab racks affordability doesn't seem to be much of a factor.

For more of a focus on affordable used mini PC homelabs, I'd recommend Hardware Haven's content instead.

Additionally, Wolfgang's blog and channel. He's also toots @notthebee@tilde.zone

Sounds interesting, thanks!

I have a full fat rack, but I'd like to adapt the 10" onto it, is there some sort of adapter thingie to maybe go two-wide?
-
I was looking into DIN rails yesterday. Might be a good option to mount several smaller devices.
