Please share photos of your Vinyl cabinet/shelving


Just picked up this cool record cabinet. Mid Century. Looks custom built. Red glass front and back.
Top pops up on right side. Probably started life as a Hi-Fi console.

I bought some hairpin legs and strip LED lights for the interior.

My large collection of LPs and 78s are shelved in custom made wall units.  My records moved about 1/8" during the 1994 Northridge earthquake, a few miles from my then home.   The cost is higher then EKET and KALLAX but superior.  3/4" thick melamine surfaced MDF (or is it high density fiberboard-I forgot)  with 20" wide shelves, stacked 7 rows high, screwed into 2X6 studs in the walls.  I use a step stool for the top shelf (I'm 5'11").  To house 17,000 LPs and 4,000 78s (half my collection) the cost in June, 2019 was $5,000 on 3 walls.   I used my 1993 identical shelving from my former house in a shed and garage to store an additional 7,500 LPs.  

@noromance With 28,500 LPs and 7,000 78s, I need bookshelf type storage (in category and alphabetical order).  As to 7,000 CD storage, I use stacked drawers from Can-Am.  They are located in the middle of the storage room.   Very convenient.

I've sold 18,000 records in the past 30 years.  I have a rule, if I don't potentially want to hear a record 3 times a year, out it goes.   I only have so much storage space (or desire to accumulate/hear more 78s and LPs.  I still buy many CDs, big box sets (classical) cheap per CD and lots of great jazz (especially where the original LP is very expensive).
