Rather than having these pics buried in the other thread, I thought it might be better if I started a new one.

Here is the HRS-SXR Rack getting put together..

This Rack is built like a Tank

The precision of threads and machining, is a thing of beauty

All Sixteen feet are fully adjustable for attaining perfect level, which BTW is also included

Beautifully engineered. Lovely. :yes: I have to show my engineer wife now...

Ivan, nice rack! :scratch2: :D

I can't wait to see the gear that gets loaded onto it. :thumbsup:

This is gonna be a fun thread :lurk:

The machining detail and design detail of this 'structure' is awesome, now I understand the price tag..

Greg... What you don't see is that every point at which a steel rod contacts/meets another piece; there are 2 special polymer flat washers. This further isolates each and every point in construction. Quite remarkable when you think about it.

Wish there was a way to have pictures of your several Cape systems by themselves w/o posts, etc. I hate clutter.

Maybe, after this one is all done; I will do a photo spread like a Model. :D

So in pic #6, second to last, the "washers" around the metal bars just past the threaded section are a polymer material? So does each level of the rack "float" on these washers? And then the shelves themselves have special isolation discs as well right?

Yes, you are correct, however you can't see the polymer isolators in any of the pics.
