I would love a wooden box made properly so I might just build myself one this year.

Rob Thomas gave me his old box , which would probably hold 5-600 records . Only problem was couldn't move the fooker and left an everlasting imprint on our old carpet (much to the EX wifes annoyment , bitch ! )

 

It was made of about 1" thick wood
