Mike's Content - Page 578

Read somewhere other day, someone saying something like, "have given up trying to have a aim/policy for site as in the end its the members and how they use it that make it what it is " which to me sort of says it all

Think site has reached seven year point this or next month - which is a bit scary but end of day as its always been a "user based" site, its the people who have "used " it who imo deserve the shout ... and ultimately are responsible for it still knocking around

Was planning some article/thing about 7 year point , time allowing will throw up something

thanks

July 1, 200421 yr

for the stylists out there noticed other day that mentioned below

b an q have upgraded their £8.99 plastic tool boxes - which hold about 200 45s - they have replaced the plastic hinges/lock bits with metal fittings but still at same price!

on more trad lines, have pasted a past discussion below, since then been told mr blue max also does highly recommended custom ones

Just some recordcase info

was posted up in old forums but as thought may be usefull cause they are going

I've got a great case for my LP's but I'm having a bugger of a time trying to find something to store 100+ 7"s. Does anyone have any suggestions on name brands or web sites with good cases?

Thank you

Marty the Mod

Posted by mike-h: Apr 20 2003, 09:14 AM

Can't help with a url, or brand names. As most 45s cases seem to be done by friend of friends in garden sheds

Maybe following option not for the stylists , but def one for those who think "hang on instead of paying 40 quid, could get some more vinyl for that".

Check out b and q, have toolboxes that can hold about 200 45s with no modifications, available in various shades of plastic, complete with handle, place for locks and handy compartmenta

All somewhere around 8 quid!!

Ok not as streetsmart as these records bags or flight cases and do open up the possibilities of getting mistaken as the washing machine repair man, but do the job and a cheap option for at home storage.

If after bit more style, halfords do metal style ones, similar size for a few quid more

Other option is Mattlan have cosmetic cases which hold 50+ 45s , flight case, leopard skin and more design, complete with combination lock and also a mirror!

These do the job fairly well and give hours of entertainment to some when notice its true origns!

As the "washing machine mechanic" look may not be everyones fav, anyone post up any contacts??

I think most DJ shops would be able to get you a 7" flight case. I've got two - one holds about 600 and the other about 150.

The 150 case came from a shop in Brighton, name escapes me, they seem to make them to order. It's a great case, handy size and very strong.

Wow, thank you all so much for your replies. I guess you're mostly from the UK. I'm going to look into these places you've suggested but I live in British Columbia, Canada so the exchange with the pound is horrible. If anyone knows of any North American locations, that'd be great.

Thank you again,

Luton Spin - In Reply To James.

Yes it was The Dynamics - I Need Your Love B/W Love Me on RCA Victor - fantastic double header as first played via Butch aka Mark Dobson a few years ago i think, infact i bought mine from him several years ago for £75.00, hard to value such a quality record but i've seen it for around £200.00 plus recently could be a little more, white demo's seem to be eaiser to find over the black stock issue copies which i've only seen in Tim Brown's play box, but i'm sure they are out there but very rare.

Hope this helps, and well done to Sean and Pete Luton was fantastic, superb infact.

I don't know about Oscar Weathers but a copy of Continental 4 on Ebay the other week didn't even get one bid with a start price of 99 cents, that is cheap )

should have posted it up in the ebay madness thread Nick, if compare this to some of the over priced 45 examples posted recently, defintely madness is the word:)

That Sounded good

Cheers all for passing on thoughts,

idea of it being a sort of catch your eye in passing thing,

usually use it as a"mmmm wonder whats that going for" meself

always a hard call balancing the content with speed on the front page,

way look at it is news/articles, forum posts , event guide are essential parts, rest of stuff flexiable and up for changes,

anyway as said ta for comments, as always feel free to add

if interested, current stuff going on is

next week or so should hopefully resort in the final sort out on content side, spare time allowing, engine seems to work ok now, just stuff like comments etc to tie in
