Very Impressive....Those Lack tables are a great solution and easy to customise, Nice joband here i thought i was the only Lack-hacker around. I went with the black-brown, and used a couple of the large tv-stands for the base. i have a lot of gear on this rack, and more is coming. unlike the other's i've seen, i made a jig to attach a cleat to the surface of each shelf to secure the leg of the shelf above. it took a bit of work, but make the assembly really easy. really though, i need a full wood shop to do a serious job.

^^^ I'll have to look there again when I'm back at my pc, but it doesn't look like they have the cap nuts for 1" thread in the black finish. And even so, the regular 1" black oxide nuts are over $12 each, and I'd want six of them plus the cap nuts.
I'm just being cheap and would rather use the stuff I already have. I didn't plan on the rack turning out the way it did, otherwise I would've done like you suggested and bought black nuts to begin with. I guess I could just paint them but I didn't think it'd hold up well.
Oh, and the PVC wood thing wasn't my idea, I just found it on Google. But it still turned out nice, and it's really simple to do.
I bought a Sansui GX-5 RIAA standard width rack back in the 70s and I am still using it today.
Simple, open, functional.
I helped him my cousin's husband pick out a new Yamaha S-600 receiver. He then added a Marantz CD5005 player and he already had a Thorens TD-160. Necessity being the mother of invention and him being a retired mechanical engineer he built a nice rack to put it in.
... And please tell me that industrial knife switch is your mains power!
Yikes! I was hoping just the opposite. Imagine leaning up against that exposed live bugger during a party. That'd put a little fizz in yer Nehi!

Yes, you are fortunate. That's beautiful work....on page 12 are the first 2 "racks" my buddy Gary built for me.
Here is the third - for my dedicated listening room.

I am fortunate to have such a great friend with gobs of talent....and self taught none-the-less

I'm fortunate to have a brother-in-law who is a talented cabinet maker, who made time in his busy schedule to build this walnut sideboard for me:
The table looks nice in red.
