I have been looking, and looking, and looking and, well you
get the idea.. At audio racks since I have completely out
grown my el cheapo bush job *read: Junk* and I want something
that has an air of elegance to it..
So I found this one rack that is to die for.. $1400.00 yeah
you have a heart attack at the price! And I have of course
considered the Flexy's and then I thought well wait a sec
I can always build a Salamander Synergy knock off since
companies like McMaster Carr sell the bulk etruded leg
materials.
So I went to McMaster's web site and woah the stuff is like
$56.00 per 8' and I need at least 4 8' sections to do the
legs without having any seams.. Well scratch that idea I
guess I will just have to do the typical ol flexy but at
least I can dress it up by using tubing over the rods and
cutting the shelves differently than the "norm".
Now I have to sit back and think about how I want to do the
rack. I need at least 7 or 8 component shelvs and I want to
cover the threaded rod with brushed aluminum pipe (or just
spray paint PVC with Silver paint and clearcoat it..)
Hrmm..
Anyone done anything "different" than the typical flexy? I
am considering doing it as a 3 leg unit with 2 legs up front
and the third leg centered in the rear.
