    What about LAK from Ikea

    Before all the serious Rack afficionados here scoff and try and redirect me to the urdy gurdy chat rooms, a stylish decent performing rack can be made from LAK tables. They are available in different sizes and finishes and if used in conjunction with dedicated support accessories you can make a pretty nifty equipment rack. I'm in the prcoess of building one that'll house my system with my TV on top. Additional support for my cd player is provided by a Townsend Sink and my amp will probably feature some additional support aswell, but the LAK's alone only cost £64. That plus the cost of 2 pieces of glass, which will act as the shelves, means probably £75 tops.

    Cheap as chips and just as tasty!

    dunno mate!

    knowing copulare though, its gotta been in the thousands.

    I like the marquetry on the one on the left. Wouldnt look out of place in a stately home I think, nevermind my humble home!

    The bronze one is cool too, wish I could weld, Id have a go!

    Hi Garyi

    You don't need a rack for your gear mate. Just pile it up on the floor and see if you can tell the difference. :D

    Why don't you just use an up-turned dustbin and stand it all on that. That's what I'd use.

    Except for me, it would be the other way up of course...... ;)

    Only joking :)

    Cheers
