love the rollers

Rollers? Not rollers . 2" X 2" extrusion.. I picked up stainless steel swivel leveling pads from Mcmaster-carr that will be fastened to the 2020 extrusion at 6 points eventually.
There will also be a center shelve with center horizontal supports.

That's going to be a very nice music rack..... Did you cut the pieces on a chop saw or did you order them pre-cut?

Ordered extrusion in 48" ad 56" lengths.Cut the pieces with a metal bandsaw giving myself 1/8 " or so on each cut.Fixed up a jig on the mill and Finish cut- 90 degree squared and true ends.So all pieces of the same length are exactly the same +/- .0005".

We have a couple vertical Maevel MK. 8's. they'll cut 18 X20, and we have cut some counterweights almost that big. Precision T-slot table like the mills.

A one of a kind stereo rack and matching stand for your Yamaha turntable will look stunning. Can't wait to see the finished product once you pile on the components.

And AK friend, Dennydog , up in Minnesota fabricated some new speaker stands for my Yamaha's. He copied some old Yamaha stands that I have.He did the laser cutting and welding.I then had the pieces powdercoated.
Denny made up two sets for me.So now both sets of 1000's and my set of 690's will look alike,as far as the stands go.
