    made some more racks, check 'em out!

    I ran out of room in my old rack setup, so i decided to build more. All they are is 2 by 4's, melamine, flexwat, and a few hours. I wire the flexwat together so I don't have tons of cords coming out the back.

    Here is the front.

    and the back.

    and here it is installed with my other one.

    I would love to see more custom made racks, so if you have made some or you own some, please add your pics. Thanks for looking!

    The sides are 2 by 4s?
    What did you paint them with to make them look so nice?

    First I primed them with Kilz, and then painted one coat of satin black latex before construction.

    those are some nice racks, they don't look as heavy as the all melamine DIY.
