concrete (cinder) block tower with wood chopping block for turntable stand

Interesting... I couldn't see these rocking due to the sheer weight of each block. These are 16 " front to back (DEEP), 8" wide, and 8" tall. Each block must have weighed near 40 Lbs. Not so much out of necessity, but more about not being very impressed with sub $1000 3 shelf single wide racks. It's a second system with a budget, and I don't want to spend over $2K on a rack. But if I was to do that it would be a Box Furniture modular rack. 

Wasn't expecting so many responses. It's a dedicated room, which I have free reign to do as I wish. There are ways to spruce up the look...I think after a trip to the fabric store and a little creativity, it can be made to look acceptable. I moved the table over from  an Ikea Square (LACK?) table to my Lignolab rack. I wanted to keep the Ligno for my main setup, and use the blocks so I could situate my systems on different walls. But I'm going to see how the Luxman table performs on the Ligno rack. I think $2500 will buy a nice audio rack, but I just want to keep this system at a certain budget. I allowed myself a second system but promised myself to keep it sane. Another words, no $3K audio racks. 

The table is a Luxman PD 151. It's doing nicely on my Lignolab suspended rack, but my preference is for this (2nd) system to be in another part of the room. Each system will occupy a different wall.
