Re: [motm] New cabinets

2008-11-23 by Scott Juskiw

I use a layer of black felt to separate my synth cabinets. I don't  
connect the cabinets together horizontally. But I use 4 metal pins   
(leftovers from some IKEA furniture) between the cabinets, vertically,  
so that the top cabinets stay aligned with their bottom.

A lot of my studio furniture is DIY and I've used black felt as a  
separator between speakers, monitor bridges, and various synth stands.  
Felt doesn't seem to decay or leave any residue at all. I also tried  
using rubber feet but those always seem to get either gooey, or  
brittle, or leave a visible mark behind.
