I'm contemplating building my own shelving system. I want to source some nice big old Oak panels, perhaps an old door Jamb, beaten up like, and make something that looks rustic, but beautiful.
I did a similar thing with some shelves in my front room, they are about 1.5 inches thick, and look quite beaten up, but they're all nicely sanded smooth.
For the uprights (of which there would be 3), I'd use cast Iron rods, painted black. The turntable shelf would be spiked, as would the bottom of each support.
Now all I need to do is find some Oak thats the right size and thickness. It shouldn't cost too much, maybe a fiver per foot.
If I have some left, I might replace the knobs on my amps, to reduce vibrations
