# Building the cluster on BPI

**Building the cluster**

**Building the rack**

I built a rack for the Banana Pi boards using blanking plates for mains sockets, and four large bolts. I made a wooden template from a piece of MDF, and used the template to drill holes in each of the banking plates. I drilled small holes for plastic PCB supports which I use to hold each board in place. The bolts are inserted through the holes at the corners of the blanking plates, and held in place with glue.
