Bredrins.

I'm looking for ways to store my records. Being a student, I don't have much money or space. Does anyone have any great ideas?

edit: the right hand edge of the rug (pimpin, right?) is the end of my floorspace, so you can see every little helps

ooooh not seen the tall version, good call

does anyone want to lend me 70 quid?

considering you'll get 9 new records for 70quid and a tall expedit can hold about 800, I think you'll agree this is money well spent.

Second hand record box? Charity shop?

Expedit does seem like the way to go, I'm just not 100% on how I'm going to make it fit in this little boxy room. I might spend a little bit more, get the 2x4 one, turn it on its side and put decks on that instead of the table I have now, or see if I can squeeze it under the table I already have.

I did that and added three of this: http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/50205198/

Works (and looks) great.

fun fact: the recommended load per shelf is 13 kg. i just learnt that the other day.
