Hello all and happy Saturday morning to you!

I love everything about my rig but something that I had never thought to ask about before bugs me. I am in the market for a CD / LP holder. You know, something that displays the CD / LP that's currently being played in an upright position.

Right now, I just set the jewel case or LP on the rack or somewhere else. I'd like to have a dedicated spot for the CD / LP that's currently in rotation. I'll even entertain custom ideas and where you store your album covers or jewel cases when in play.

What say you? Talk to me...

Thanks all,

Tom

    Well you could go this route http://www.wesleyandkemp.com/shop/recordeasel or get a high school shop class kid to whip you one up! But I think people are more inclined to go with plate/picture easels. Here is amazon link. Lots to choose from.

    and this is the one I picked up 5 or 6 years ago and still going strong...

    I asked this on another forum and I found a photo of exactly what I'm looking for.

    Anybody know where to source one of these?

    You did. You definitely did. I was apparently using the wrong keywords and if my life depended on it? Yeah, I would have perished.

    Thanks again bro'!

    I made my own out of maple and walnut.

    I would be happy to throw one together for you the next time I swing by the shop...I have maple, walnut, cherry, oak, ask, hickory and cedar on hand as well as some poplar.

    Sorry about all the posts I guess you cant post multiple pics anymore. I did order the Mofi one but changed my mind and left it in the cart, $47 is at the moment was cutting into the new CD fund,I will spring for it eventually.

    I took Ricks advice and got 1 large and to small Easel's at Walmart for like $8 bucks for all three glad I did, these display my current what is on the play list items real well, great recommendation Rick at that price you cant go wrong.
