Mounting a 5.25" optical drive on a 120/130mm fan mount

I'm looking to mount a 5.25 optical drive on a caseless wall mount frame in the AIO cooler mount position, which accepts 120 and 130mm fan mounts. I've got lots of lateral room I just need to cajole the screw holes into lining up. I do not have a 3dp to make my own bracket.

Please ignore the duct taped HDD. The proper mounting location for that has been found and it will be moved forthwith.

PS 2026 Inflatable Chair - Honest Feedback

Alright so I got my chair today! Been wanting this ever since it was announced and now that emotional high has came and went

Here’s the problems I’ve had with it:

•It is much smaller in person than expected. I’ve come to realize that most of these influencers are probably small people. I have a corgi and he takes up the footprint of the chair

• Chrome came with blemishes. One large enough that I called and requested a replacement piece. It wasn’t a scratch but more so a dent with a scuff. Now I’ve noticed even more blemishes on the cushion loops. Ugh

•The zipper on the back cushion broke. I suppose it can’t handle a bit of inflation. I went to Hobby Lobby to buy the replacement and noticed these are the cheapest 99 cent zippers they offer. We didn’t even get a heavy duty metal one. I replaced it but it still won’t stay closed even taking air out. I opted to call and get this part of the seat replaced as well.

•The fabric is more wrinkly and seams are wavy in person no matter how well you tuck the inflatable insert into the corners etc. I’m hoping this smooths out with time

•My back inflatable insert tries to pop open as well. Scared with regular use it’ll just pop open and deflate. The bottom inflatable insert that has two (valves?) is fine

-
Here’s the pros:

•It looks cool

•Good forearm workout when pumping it up. This really takes a while

Also, I forgot to add: When I called today to get the replacement parts, they told me they just open one up and send me the parts from it. I was concerned at first since it’s a new drop but my IKEA is getting another 9 tomorrow. We had 13 today which was about the average at all the stores from what I saw… so this should be easy to find if you want it. UPDATE: Nope. So hoping on the 28th I’ll get my parts lol
