LP storage? What do you use?


I am looking at how I store my lps. I currently store then in several ways.

(1). Shelfs bult into closet, on edge, with book ends to keep straight.

(2).6 milk crates with lps on edge.

Any input? What are others doing out there?

I notice Ikea now has something called the Markor. I haven't yet inspected in person, but it looks like it should be perfect: cheap, more than 12" deep, five evenly spaced shelves high, the bottom shelf several inches off the floor, and doesn't look like it belongs in a student basement apartment.

The EXPEDIT looks like a great solution, but is rated for only 29 lbs per 13 inch shelf. Records would weigh far more. I'm afraid to risk it.

Check out the offering at www.GothicCabinetCraft.com. Seems to be the best shelf-type solution I've found.
Cheap, but doesn't sound perfect. The shelves are too shallow. Yeah, you can use it, but it'll look sloppier and provide less dust protection.
