    They don't move around. The albums seem to absorb vibrations too. I can jump up and down on the floor in front of it.

    The pegs could probably be adapted to keep all of your accessories and different headshells on too. I'm always misplacing my protractor.

    Intend to both have it off floor and screwed to wall at same time. Daughter is doing some courses in Glasgow next month and she thinks an Ikea is near the place so might get it soon.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Very happy with mine. It's very secure. Not fixed it to the wall mind. I should do that really.

    I use Kallax for re ord storage.
    The records slipping back is quite annoying.

    Mine is pretty sturdy as I used a resin glue to bond everything together as I built it.
    I just need to add something on the back and I will be happy.

    If you want something with doors the Ikea Besta range are also a perfect size for LPs

    To stop records slipping too far back it's really quick to install stick-on plastic electrical conduit on the shelf. I hope what I'm saying is clear enough without a photo.
