I need a rack..

[annikk.exe]

This has now been built, spraypainted, and had gear screwed into it. It lives on my desk and sits there looking awesome. :>

It is beautifully constructed. My only complaints are minor; the nuts provided were extremely stiff and very challenging to get into the rack rail holes. Also the rail holes themselves are not very evenly spaced - the gaps between each hole are seemingly random sizes.. Which makes it a bit tricky to get all the gears lined up flush with each other. These things I overcame pretty quickly though.

Pics inc to the Studio Pr0n thread soon..

Just wanted to tell you that the Thermionic Culture Vulture doesn't need as much ventilation as you might think.
You can easily get in contact with Thermionic if you doubt me, they are very friendly (I asked them the same thing because these are pricey units).

I have several Valve units so some of them are "blocked" and I have never had a problem, in fact some would argue hot Tubes are preferable.
It might reduce the Tube lifespan slightly but they can be replaced easily.
Also the newer version which I presume you have has much better casing design than my old version allowing for greater airflow.
All my racks have about 5mm space inbetween the units anyway, which imo is plenty.

It's a 12u rack with only 7u of gear in it (the rest is taken up with blanking plates). So there is plenty of space for ventilation anyway :>
