Patrick,

I posted the message below after I'd built my own rack from skip-diving treasures (still haven't taken any better pictures of it though :-( ). The rack now has a base with casters and a couple of fixed shelves. Let me know if you want any further info.

Cheers,

Tim H.


-----------------
A little while ago I promised to firstly finish, then photograph my DIY
rack.

It's more or less complete. It needs a top & bottom, plus the castors
fitting but it's just about there. All I need now are some "bargains" (c) to
populate it with ;-)

I apologise in advance for the photos, they were taken about 9.30 last
night, on a DV camcorder without a flash, so they are bit grainy. You get
the idea though. I'll take some better ones with a view to writing this up
as a tutorial, if there's sufficient interest.

The frame is made from two metal-framed tables one on top of the other, cut
down to size and joined with blocks inside the tubing. Overall approx dims
are: 1225h x 580w x 570d

For my fellow skin-flints, the total cost was about 50p for a couple-dozen
screws, everything else came from a very generous skip (yup, that includes
the 3U case :-) )

The pictures are in the photos section of the group on Yahoo, see:

Cheers,

Tim H.
