My Wife's...Umm I mean my DVD/CD rack. (1 Viewer)

[Brian Steeves]

Here's a couple shots of the DVD/CD rack I just finished last weekend. It's pretty darn big at 57"x48"! The only way I could get it in the house was to paint it in the colors you see. Oh well, at least I got the DVDs and CDs out of the drawers! I figure it holds about 300 DVDs and probably 500 CDs give or take.

Brian, shoot me an email or PM me, I'll be glad to host those pictures.

Thanks Brian, but Jerry Pease put them up for me on his server already. I just forgot to post the links here. They are now linked in my first post.

Nicely done! Looks like 8" MDF with rounded ends or did you go with pine?

No hassle - rack looks good!

Actually I used solid Poplar. I was afraid that MDF would sag because of the long length. At the time I planned it I wasn't thinking of putting a back on it. Had I planned on a back MDF probably would have worked fine. Pine was out due to the many knots inherent in it.

Poplar is a much better choice than MDF for this application because of weight alone...can you imagine the size of the sheetrock anchors you'd have to use to keep that thing up on the wall even without CD's/DVD's loaded up on it.

Excellent choice.
