Since my room is small (12x17), there is little in the way of room to store the estimate of 750 cds and dvds combined in a storage cabinet along a wall and storing in a closet or some place else is not possible, I want to make shelves that would fit into a pocket in the wall. Since CDs are ~5.5 inches wide the shelves will be 6in wide. That means a beefy 2in moulding around the unit. I have searched for member HT rooms to see if anyone has done this, but to no avail.
So a question: Has anyone seen this done or have done it and if so, can you send me any lessons learned that might make this easier. I have access to a table saw and router to do the finishing work and I want to give it a shot.
I would like to use an unfinished wood i.e. maple or oak instead of MDF, but that means I also have to plane the wood down thinner than the 1 in that comes standard.
Here is a link to a unit that is hung on the wall but can in IMHO can be placed in the wall however I don't want to pay the money:

Thanks in advance for any info
