Hello,
I would need some help. I'm not really good in mechanics. The way I make enclosures, I draw them in solidworks to the last screw, get them lasercutted, bent, powder painted.
Now I need to set up a secondary system. I have a good amp. Single ended class A tube amp with input selector and volume control. No MM input, but I will use it with DAC only. Also have a pair of JPW Sonata I will use it with. I'm working on the DAC, but what I have no ide of, I need a small stand, for only 2 eqpmnt. The amp and a DAC. It was 20 years ago I've built a stand last time. This will be a low budget and temporary system, an expensive stand would not fit.
I thought I buy two of these to start with : IKEA.com – International homepage – IKEA , but I have no much idea for the rest of the structure.
Do you have an idea? I can not weld 🙁 , but I can make copper pipe structures and not bad with woodwork in general.
Thanks a lot!

This may be more work than you had wanted, but how about a design using extruded aluminum struts to create a frame, to which you would then add two shelves? Bosch Rexroth offers extruded aluminum struts in a variety of profiles, and there are plenty of copy-cat manufacturers in the world. Here are a couple of examples:
80/20 T-slot Aluminum Building System

An old photo of my first extruded aluminum rack is attached as an example.
