Buying shelves for your home can be annoying because you’re always reliant on what’s available to purchase. If you can’t find shelves that fit the dimensions of your available space, you end up having to move your entire room around just to accommodate them. Instead of that, use one or more old PC towers to create your own set of modular shelves.
After removing the internal components, remove the fastening screws from the outer panels, and turn them around. Use them to secure the tower to the wall, preferably into a wall stud. If you’re worried that the screws aren’t strong enough, you can also swap them out for something stronger like sheetrock screws. If you have multiple old towers, you can stack them on top of each other and secure all of them to the wall to create an entire shelving unit, ready to hold books, knickknacks, or whatever else you want to brighten up your room.
