Component "Feet and Legs"

Today, Sunday January 29th, 2012, I purchased some black ABS plastic connectors and pipe to make feet and legs to give the components ventilation in the current cabinet. I used 8 connectors and 2 three inch pieces of pipe to make the feet and legs. This gives spacing of about 1 1/2 inches vertical between each component in the current cabinet.

I had some trouble getting stability with this setup but after playing with several arrangements I was able to get something close to prefect given the current setup. I have 3 connecters directly under the Blu-ray player and the Cable Box. I then have a connector attached to 3 inches of pipe under the back side of the Cable Box. I have it in this arranagement because the Cable Box is about 5 inches deeper than the Blu-ray player.

When I get the new component rack these spacers will not be needed.
