very cool! I'd suggest honeycomb drilling the bottom panel and putting casters on the bottom(8 for the big guy, 4 for the small guy), that will allow air to vent up through the rack, these are the casters i use, great deal, very good quality.

We have the casters covered already as well as some 1RU vent panels.

Back is open.

Drawing is not exactly to scale but it will give you the idea...
