Your recycler or a scrap yard is a great  place to  look. 
you can try surplus electronic  store also, but unless they  get  burdened  
 with a lot of them  your scrappers at the  end of  the food chain  will be 
the most reasonable as a general rule.

Hey  all,

Does anyone know of a source around NYC (or within a few hours  driving
distance) for a vintage or otherwise interesting, affordable  equipment
rack? I have a space in my living room where I'd like to place an  old
Systron Donner frequency counter, a Remex paper tape reader and  a
reproduction PDP-8/e switch panel (thanks Rod). Aside from those items,  the
rest of the rack would serve as a bookshelf.

I've seen some  racks on eBay (including a Norelco computing stack) but most
are too far  away or expensive (>$200). I have't yet checked scrap yards or
e-waste  recyclers.

Any ideas would be appreciated!
