I need an excuse to get a table saw and some plywood. I've got something specific in mind and I haven't been able to do woodworking in ages! I want to have at least one wall, preferably two, all shelving for vinyl and books.
I don't have a method. When I have time, I guess? I'll definitely play a record more than once. I don't seek out rare mints to never spin. I've got a few in poor shape, but they play. Been collecting since I was a little kid. I just finished living on the road for like 15 years. I'd bounce around the country, collect, listen, fill a couple boxes, then drop them off at a trusted friend's house for storage, then repeat. I didn't realize I had this many til I got them all in one place finally.
As my player has USB, I'd like to start doing digital backups while I listen. There is some oddball stuff in here that is worth the trouble. There's also some dreck in here that isn't. I have a small collection of those old gospel records with the creepy, cultish-looking families on the cover, just because I think they're hilarious.

Only one cat? That's not much of a collection.

Hopefully the cat deficit will be resolved soon. I suspect he's going to be extremely jealous however.

Nothing too crazy. I think I just went looking for it at the right time. Always wanted a copy. Saw it for sale online and bought it.

That Voyager Golden Record is so cool.

I just looked it up. Geez, that's selling much higher now. I bought it new for like $99. Wish I'd put it in a sleeve immediately.

Are all of your walls temporary?
