Cheap, home-made component stand....

Here is my proposal.
Buy (home depot)2x2 or 1x2 maple and laminate it,that is glue all the pieces together,like a buther block.Glue,clamp and let dry.After you sand the whole board or run it on a surface planer.Ease off the corners with a router.Buy from www.crlaurence.com the item (4 stand offs,either 4 or 6 or 8 inch height)They come in satin or polished stainless steel.Drill your board on eack corner and install the stand offs for legs.There you have a stand that looks like million dollars in my opinion.
Best of luck

Thanks George. That`s certainly a more refined example and one that I`ll build.

basically that's what I made... sometimes called a flexy design (DIY).

I built shelves out of 1X2's glued up like butcher block, drilled holes in the corners & used threated rods & nuts to hold it together.

You can see it in my virtual system.

good luck,
