We visited a young guy who worked for a record producer in Chicago. He lived in an efficiency apt. about 20 floors up overlooking lake Michigan. The whole end of the apartment was glass, very cool view.  The left wall, a good 15 ft long was filled with LPs, floor to ceiling. I am surprised the building didn collapse. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have had those things collapse.  I see how that might happen. The key is to assemble the whole thing very carefully and use your best judgement in tightening the surrounding screws that hold the shelve together. Use wood glue if you wanna be extra precocious. I had them for years now and the shelves are packed with records. Not even a tiny amount of sagging or anything peculiar going on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The view across Lake Michigan from that height is really nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
