Re: LACK...Of bloody intrest.
Whatever you do... dont't cut into the top of a lack table. Not 100% hollow but honeycomb cardboard a bit like 1970's ibterior doors
No nails, thats my kind of DIY

Worked a treat with feedback-prone or bass-issue turntables back in the 80's though
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way...The time has gone, The song is over, Thought I'd something more to say...

Re: LACK...Of bloody intrest.
This honeycomb structure as given the lacks a bit of a reputation as a tt support and it is of course the same structure as a pt sub chassis. But that is aluminium.
Re: LACK...Of bloody intrest.
Making Lack TT supports and racks is fine as long as you insert wood, chipboard or MDF "plugs" in the bottom of the legs after cutting them down. You can then simply stack them, use foculpods etc or fit spikes and spike shoes. Getting the legs cut to exactly the same length is more important if not using spikes or something adjustable. Cutting them all together using a chop saw will do it.
It's still a cheap and good way of housing your kit but not for everyone.
