First step is to gut your ups. This is not necessarily a haphazard hack and slash step. We need to preserve the leads, switches, breakers and the entire outlet wiring 100% as we will be keeping this as a striped down power strip as well to help with the camouflage process. As you can see there is plenty of room as long as we lay it out right.


Next up is to carefully remove the innards of the switch or router you chose. While doing this use the same careful consideration you would lend a new CPU or motherboard as one bad zap of static can toast the unit entirely.



The nslu2 naked. This is really the heart of our stealth server. The outer shell is really oversized for what's inside of it. But that's marketing's fault I suppose. Now that the shells are off we will have an easier time fitting it all in. there are a few LED's for status on the unit, but we don't care much for those showing in this "stealthy project"



The walwarts have a pretty big shell too. They are actually fairly easy to take apart. I use my dremal tool on high and melted around the seam being super careful to not cut to deep. Once it was melted around the edges I used a flat screwdriver to snap it open and all the innards just fell out. You will want to prepare both power supplies like this. I hope for the sake of your genetic line I don't have to remind you to not have this plugged in when you do this.
