A Little Fun With Wood & Steel
Had some leftover butcher block from another project so I thought I'd make something to hold my garage/shop Yamaha system.

Michael.......Way to go. Looks super. Maybe trim the threaded rods at the top and replace the hex nuts with cap nuts for a cleaner top shelf look. All in all, I like what you have built.

Dan...thanks for the input. I have to make up my mind whether to use those or some black rubber caps I have in the tool box.

Looks great! Looks just as good if not better than some of the Salamandrer racks I've seen. Nice!

Michael... That's a great looking rack. How long did it take you? That will be one classy looking garage audio system when you get all your gear in place.

Thanks, Terry.
I have about 4 - 6 hours in it total. I layed out my design, did a quick take-off to determine what I needed, cut down the butcher block into 24" x 18" pieces, drilled 4 holes in each piece, took my router to each piece to round over the edges, sanded the pieces, then stained them. A little satin poly and it was done. I think I spent more time waiting for the stain and poly to dry than I did with actual tools in my hands.

Your creation looks great. Wish I had the talent to pull something like that off using leftovers. Very nice indeed.

May I ask where you got the butcher's block? Looks really cool and I'm thinking of copying you.

Sears sells butchblock countertop and workbench tops in several lengths as do most home stores. Even local lumber yards will have it from time to time.
