Default new amp rack

lol, it was my first try. i know its not much but its something. i still have to cover it, but im waiting to see if i even like it. my whold goal was to cover the wires, but i didnt end up doing that. i tried to go to fancy, but ran out of wood for the day.

thanks, not to bad for 10 bucks worth of wood, 12 bucks worth of beer, and an afternoon with the old man.

nobody got hurt in the making of this rack, there were a few close calls.

i did the sides with a jig saw, he did the rest of the table saw, my hands were used instead of clamps, and we both had a drill/beer in our hands.

all was done on a ice/gravel driveway on a beatifull day. good times

Hello there,have you ever had on ur mind about a second battery it's the best way to keep enough juice to feed ur amps and electronic gadgets.and protect ur alternator from frying. It's my opinion,also will help with dimming of heatlights when bass notes hits.And for me Im more satisfied with a 40 bucks batt before a 120$$ capacitor,good luck
