I recently made a post for using a 3D printer to mount 2.5" disks into 3.5" hot-swap caddys where, at the very bottom, I linked to "more" goodies one could print for their home lab:
This is a tiny fraction of components people could print for their homelab. For example, one my next projects is to print one of the many RPi cluster mounts for a 19" rack.
And then, there's the cable organizer for racks:
Also, I have a couple of those Hyve Zeus servers with zero room for 3.5" drives. So I'm printing these shortly for a school:
Among many other components.
@Patrick do you think there would be enough interest for a dedicated forum?
If not, what would you suggest to "group" these kinds of prints and downloads? (while I could use the Tags, who browses with those anyways? hehe)
Thingiverse - Digital Designs for Physical Objects
Download files and build them with your 3D printer, laser cutter, or CNC. Thingiverse is a universe of things.

PCIe slot 3.5" HDD Bracket with PCIe x1 riser cutout by zcomputerwiz
The case for the D1800 BTC Mining board doesn't include a spot to mount a HDD or SSD, so I modified this for a mostly open PCI slot. I printed this with high temperature PLA, but in my rig it still gets warm enough to make it sag. You may have to adjust the width of the cutout, it fits very snug...
