A desk diorama for a three-node homelab. Set on the desk beside the router or NAS, the scene turns a three-node homelab into a tiny engine room: one colored block per machine and a lone standing operator watching over the deck. Homelab owners and self-hosters get a status piece that reads at a glance, not a chart to check.
Four nodes, one deck. You set each piece onto the tan deck by hand: the ribbed teal block, the three-pipe orange block, the looping blue block, and the small standing green figure. No two pieces share a shape or a color, so the layout reads back as one engine room the moment the last piece lands.
Five pieces, five roles. The set comes as five separate pieces: the tan engine-deck base, a teal block with a stacked ridge of fins, an orange block with three ridged cylindrical pipes, a blue block wrapped by a looping arc, and a small green standing figure. Each stands in its own footprint on the deck, no glue, no fasteners.
Fit and finish. Each block carries its own surface language: the teal fin stack, the orange ribbed pipes, and the blue halo loop, all finished in fine, even print layer lines. The tan deck stays flat and plain but for two shallow recessed channels running its length, keeping the blocks and the operator the only detail.
