Re: 2 Sliding Rack Shelves for $50 PPD! Too Good To Be True?

I had a 14-U rack once. It was a pain just getting it out of the house and into the SUV, let alone up and down stairs. Even though your rack will have wheels you should invest in a decent hand truck; it'll make life a lot easier, especially when it comes to stairs. Good advice. I'm actually getting...

Re: 2 Sliding Rack Shelves for $50 PPD! Too Good To Be True?

That's an excellent price for a 14-U rack, even with $45 shipping to my location in South Florida. Good thing you got the wheel base, though. When a rack weighs in at 60 pounds empty , you know it'll be well over twice that once you start putting gear in it. ;) Good find on those rack shelves, too....

Re: 2 Sliding Rack Shelves for $50 PPD! Too Good To Be True?

On the subject of good rack gear deals.. I ended up grabbing a well made 14RU rack and wheelbase a decent price. Even with the S&H. So, all said and done.. a 14 space rack, wheel base & (2) sliding rack shelves ended up costing $300 to my door. The shipping is a killer on the rack and wheelbase, of ...

Re: 2 Sliding Rack Shelves for $50 PPD! Too Good To Be True?

I just bought that shelf, but not from Parts Express (even though I live 20 minutes from them). I found it here: http://www.proaudiostash.com/product/19-inch-racking/rack-shelves/1u-19-sliding-rack-tray/148.shtml I wish I would have bought it from Parts Express though. Although the price was lower,...

Re: 2 Sliding Rack Shelves for $50 PPD! Too Good To Be True?

I'm thinking these drawers were more or less designed to be mounted in large computer racks, which have a rack assembly inside the case itself, similar to how a shock rack is constructed (a frame within a frame), and the drawer slide mechanism would get bolted directly to sides of the inside frame....

Re: 2 Sliding Rack Shelves for $50 PPD! Too Good To Be True?

I hope you didn't buy these yet. No mounting tabs is definitely a red flag, but the real cause for concern is that 600mm depth, which equates to about 23-11/16". Try searching for a 23" deep rack case on eBay and you'll see why this isn't all that great a deal. I did not buy. I did however write th...

Only thing I can't really figure out is how it would mount in a ...
