  • I really like these kind of square wooden boxes - is there another brand that does those aprart from "Musicbox Designs" (who charge €89,- for such a box)?

  • Interested in this as well. Too cold to be cutting up my own one outside.

    Also, anyone selling their portishead - dummy LP, please give me a shout. Christmas present.

  • It's a pretty reasonable price if the actual item is the same as the pictured one. The quality of the wood is pretty decent and it has mitred corners which are harder to do properly.

    I have at least 1 flight case, I prefer that style with a lid so the records are protected if you want them to be. The other popular type is the 'really useful storage company' box. They have 2 lid heights so you can have dividers in the box if you want. I think they have colour options too.

    I'm a joiner with 30 years experience making furniture and I wouldn't want to try to make those boxes in pine cheaper than that price.

    I can understand the attraction of these but they're not as practical as the other options. In the long run record collection accessories add up to a ton of money but they usually last much much longer than you imagine. I've got 30 year old flight cases that still work fine.
