[@jeffturner5541]

Thanks for the awesome video. I made one long rack divided into 2 sections and put it all on wheels following your basic outlines. Thanks again!

[@jenshennus3587]

Came out looking awesome! Great build.

[@wrapacademytraining]

This is exactly what I was looking for for my stack! Nice work!

[@blueshirttail]

Wow. I've never made anything before (in terms of woodworking, etc.). I really want to try and make this. I absolutely love it! Cheers!

[@dgassie]

Good idea, nice work, great looking record stand!

[@djlowland]

Awesome, I would recommend a removable cover top in the same colour stain and make it a functional table too. Great Job

[@rc52]

Brad, great job, you are the man! Wish you lived close by, I'd hire you to make me a few of those or a longer one! 👊🏼

[@luvmtrks4366]

Sweet and Simple. Which makes it perfect. I have alot of albums to where I need to build something like this. Thnx.

[@carixoxo1]

randomly came across this video while looking at vinyl storage ideas, very cool and dig what your craft is all about, learned some stuff :•)

[@RichardsonForge]

Thanks for watching Carina! Appreciate the comment!

[@stevengormley855]

Just made one for my wood project at school. Works phenomenal!!!

[@tweetybirdfirefly]

Nice! This will be my next project to work on with my dad ❤️

[@mulekickhandmadeguitars8465]

I built two of these for a client. He loves them.

[@RichardsonForge]

Great to hear!!

[@joeclements6744]

Hey Brad, First let me say that I could not do what you do but I have some hints because I have been doing furniture repair for over 40 years and have some info you might like. They make plugs so you don't have to use dowels. Just drill a hole and hammer a plug into the hole. Sand a little (if you need it). They even have different type plugs including one that looks like a button. (no sanding needed) The other tool accessory that is available is a drill stop. You put it on the bit and tighten it with an allen wrench and it is faster and more accurate than tape. Hope this helps. Don't think i am an AH. Never to late to find new stuff.

[@garrettmcnabb8471]

Great video, and great piece, man! Thumbs up!

[@evanthienes661]

Beautiful work.

[@FLAREntertainment]

Awesome Video. super creative, will have to do this build for my record collection

[@paulhuhtala4541]

I thought the cutouts that were used as a compromise were a more elegant solution than your original plan. Looks good.

[@jcstevegigs]

Great job! Simple effective and looks great

[@RichardsonForge]

Thank you!

[@slow96ss]

Nice build, simple yet effective. I noticed you didn't put screws in until the glue dried though. Usually mechanical fasteners are used to keep the parts from moving until the glue dries, as the glue will be doing the bulk of the holding. I fear the glue might crack or move once you cinch the screws in. I would've just sunk the screws with the glue wet, that way it dries in its final location. Great solution for the support pieces, way cooler than screws! Will be watching more :)

[@RichardsonForge]

I agree! If I were to do this again I would put in the screws before the glue was dry, or avoid using screws all together. Thanks a lot for watching!

[@jerrykennedy9619]

looks good. nice job on the use of the dowels and cutouts. two design change recommendations. (1) place a 5/4" x 4" board between each of the legs at the top on the front and back. This will give your records a flat surface to lean against. (2) for a similar reason, place a piece of luan/plywood/other on top of the rails to give your records a flat surface to sit on. Make sure this is 12" wide so the whole record sits on it. Both of these will save some wear and tear on your covers.

[@kierenmoore3236]

YES!!!! Exactly ... :)

[@mulekickhandmadeguitars8465]

Very simple and low cost. I like this idea.

[@matthewmendoza7417]

thanks for the idea im gonna use what i can and improve what i want thanks so much been wanting to build one for a month or so now

[@lindamcd1217]

Beautiful!

[@otakuholly8885]

Leaving the center (where weight of vinyl would be on the sleeve) supported by two slats with a ga in the center will result in longtime use spine splitting on bottom as the weight wouldnt be supported in anywayto transfer it other then the thin cardboard, a thin piece of masonite over the two bottom slats would rememdy this. I use outwe sleeves and inner sleeves i store outside the cover loose behind them so this would result in the outer sleeve stretching and leaving lines on the outer sleeve which would be even worse. I am no expert but thought I'd throw in my 2 cents.

[@boolezabah]

Thanks a lot for sharing with us. beautiful work. fred from France

[@RichardsonForge]

Thanks Fred, appreciate it!

[@kyleddo]

great video. thanks for sharing. Also call me crazy but were you and your bro not just on the most recent season of Alone?

[@philv738]

Very nice piece

[@LadyAshez]

I really love this! Finally someone builds something displaying the records face-out! I wonder how large I can go with this. I have a lot of records to display. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

[@djjoeykmusic]

Awesome! Thank you * Great Job

[@kopparsulfat]

love it.

[@masterwise7]

Very nice!

[@undefinedname1398]

Wonder if a slight angle on the bottom rails would give the albums a bit more visibility.

[@denisebernidino2561]

Great tutorial , very Good instructions Thank you and be safe

[@alexparson4472]

Excellent tutorial

[@davidhigginbotham5451]

Did you make another one for your STYRENE Records?

[@biggdoggxxxx]

Nice vid ..Looks really nice....Any chance on measurement's... Would love to try

[@callmezachy7043]

What are the measurements?

[@rodrigohidalgo6307]

Hey man! thank you for your video! Could you or anyone else here tell me what were the final measurements of the timber before he started building. I unfortunately don't have enough room for a table or a mitre saw in my flat hahaha

[@markrussell4218]

thanks for the ideas

[@TroubadourJuggernaut]

Well done !!!

[@RichardsonForge]

TroubadourJuggernaut thanks for watching!

[@murat-akar]

Perfect

[@michaeldilger7559]

looks awesome yet simple man...any chance you can convert your measurements to metric for me...cheers

[@jadedoldguy5233]

Nice work.

[@RichardsonForge]

Thanks a lot!

[@myaddidas3000]

Hey, you were on Alone! You need to try out for a third season! Great record crate, btw.

[@stevengormley855]

What’s alone?

[@2005Rica]

Very nice job. Just need a base cause the lp weight will cut the sleeve that way.

[@andrewsteele348]

I did the same but screwed and dowelled the supports through the legs ... :)

[@davidguerre6896]

Looks really nice for a small collection 👌

[@DanceStudio-iv3pc]

Any way to get the wood specs that you used?

[@robertpurvis6106]

i bet you could totally build out a beautiful dj booth and shelves underneath. i would love one of these to place the records i was playing for the weekend set. sadly i use a ikea furniture frankenstein shelf table for my booth. nice job!

[@shadlewis7473]

What length did you cut the boards?

[@Ryan-bc2wh]

Nice build but I would have put a flat bottom so the weight of the sleeves are not dented by the runners, but very nice job. Simple but effective

[@alessandrotrav]

good job

[@csabasztanoczki4281]

really good video ,thank you for it. big thumbs up :D

[@RichardsonForge]

Csaba Sztánoczki thanks for watching!

[@ferdinandschaal3765]

Slick bruh!

[@RichardsonForge]

Thank you!

[@BrettsForest]

It might damage your covers. Putting pressure on the outer corners over time. But I love your build ! You gave me good ideas !

[@lefreakyfreak]

Covers will always wear out center first (for instance from frequently 'dropping' them back into a dj case thereby casing the outer, often sharp, edge of the vinyl to damage the inner and outer sleeve sides, eventually even poking through the entire cover sleeve side). I agree with Brett T and would also recommend having at least some form of support in the center (thus supporting the vinyl itself rather than the cover. My 2 cents.

[@jakskejajajajaa4283]

Hi! I’am about to make one of those and could you tell me te sizes in centimeters because they are hard to hear in the video cause i’am not very good at english.

[@paquetefernandez]

Nice job. Thanks for sharing. Could you please write the dimensions in centimeters of each part? Thanks again.

[@joshs2986]

Can you send through your dimensions?

[@analoguesoul]

At 3:00, what is the name of the tool that you're using to measure the wooden frame (the orange coloured tool). How do I search it on Amazon. Thanks.

[@NPrescott]

That's just a wood clamp to hold them in place.

[@tweetybirdfirefly]

Cool tattoo by the way!! What kind of music do you listen to?! ☺️☺️

[@RedfishInc]

You never heard of a stubby screwdriver or a right angle drill? Don't get me wrong, the inset rails look much nicer and are more sturdy than what you originally had in mind.

[@theelectricfalcon1740]

Do you sell these?

[@ckom0007]

What kind of storage unit would you make for 5000+ LPs?

[@gringoloco47]

normalmente los tornillos sujetan la pieza mientras el pegamento hace su trabajo.. no al reves... salud!

[@nightmime]

I’m jealous

[@IoRobot_98]

It wouldn't be a bad design if the way the records are supported crates indentations in the cardboard cover, ruining it, there's also the risk of the record making a hole in it since the whole weight of it is held just by the cardboard... record albums need a whole surface underneath.

[@adamvmiller]

Love the video. Love the 80s porn music looping in the bg.

[@RichardsonForge]

Adam Miller I always shoot for the porn vibes. Thanks! Haha

Forget Kreg and rabbits, the Stinger/Dowel trick always wins the day.

[@1SMACKK1]

Can I just pay you to make 2 of these

[@curtbradley549]

five fourths ??? HUH pls explain

[@anniekay8617]

You need to be selling these on your website..... :)

[@chlynn13b92]

Yes. He does because I'd like to have a few.

Dust extraction …needed….big time☺

[@beeman10power]

SELL ME 20-30 of 'em my dude! Youz still out yonder?? ...Payce!

[@halifax_googan2227]

800 liked

[@taylorwhitney8006]

can anyone give me the measurements? that would help a lot!

[@Felipedominguez1]

Taylor Whitney it looks like he used 3/4 to 1 inch boards, so the width including the boards is probably 14-15 inches, seeing how a record is roughly 12"x12" so the inside has to be 13" to add for a good non snug fit. The height looks to be around 16-18" and Length is around 16" seeing how he has like 30 records (yes, I tried to count them) in the box. So I guess to make it more clear the measurements (COUNTING THE 3/4-1" BOARDS), are ROUGHLY W14-15"xH16-18"xL16" but it's probably best if you measure your total records length and try to make your own measurements to accommodate the space you have where you wanted to put them and have a better fit. Hope I helped, good luck with your build! :)

[@stigharding3534]

@@Felipedominguez1 Watching the video and pausing it when he has his tape measure out it appears the dimension of the smaller boards (width) is 13.5" and the length 22"
