On the bottom there should be no washers used so the feet stick past a hair further

on the end up rights there should be nuts and washers locking it down.
I know they were not on in the pics but that was because I was just tryiong tio give you and idea

Every deck should be locked in place on both sides and the underneath tof the bottom does not get washers

the rods shopuld be flush with the nuts on the under carrage and the space for the first deck should be measured to fit a power supply upright and tighteened down til it is snug ....

I personally use the little 3/8" round clear rubber dots at Home Depot in the feet section on the PS so it does not scratch the paint

if the 1 1/4" screws did not get tight grad 6 1 5/8" screws to replace

then all you should need is the rad mounting screws & the top deck is on upside down ............. LOL

Looks great BTW.................

The top deck is where I messed up with the paint, so I had to put it upside down. The feet are just long enough that the washers fit on the bottom too, Ill just pick up another sometime for the top one that doesnt have it.

Thanks again

You should have nuts in washers on the top of the second deck bro .....

it is just laying there and those nuts will not tighten ....

It will give the entire rack more stability ..........

The second deck has them on the 4 rods, just not the two tall ones. I was looking at the pics you put up at EOCF when I put it together, and thats how it was.
Ill fix it though.

inshort bro all decks where rods penetrate should have an nut and washer on both sides of the wood except the the underneath of the bottom deck just gets a nut on it but the top side does get the washer as well

just helps the feet out a bit and gives you a bit more clearance lowering the chances of scratinging the table underneath

Can't wait to see it .... hardware on it yet .... and loop

praying the rad acomidations work ???

Good way to dress it up ios 3/8" cap nuts on the six riser tops. I didn't get them to save you a few bucks ...

Dont have the loop yet, but added in some hardware that I had to test out.

The rad holes mostly match up, but I cant get it flush against the wood. Also, there isnt enough room for the tubing (the notch was about 1/4 short) so I had to mount it facing away from the board. Not a big deal though.
