(My house was built in 1909 so I have an aversion to cutting things up). On my blog I have a shelf I built to hold ammunition and that's what I had to do to fit it into the closet.<br /><br />http://heresolong-voices.blogspot.com/2019/09/neverending-project-list-ammunition.htmlArmerdinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713305430858941212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-54281430586382687002019-12-03T11:19:35.332-06:002019-12-03T11:19:35.332-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Armerdinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713305430858941212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-19955718968281077822017-03-24T15:10:43.399-05:002017-03-24T15:10:43.399-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14896137757723624681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-68708880228985210922017-03-24T15:06:52.879-05:002017-03-24T15:06:52.879-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14896137757723624681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-11176274140357030102017-03-24T15:01:17.004-05:002017-03-24T15:01:17.004-05:00Nope.

Didn't add supports on the long shelves since they stayed under the 4' rule. Hopefully they don't bow.

Cut the molding at a 45 so it can marry with molding that surrounds the shelf. If it's not possible to remove the molding you can put the same molding around the base of the shelf and angle it in so it looks married with the wall molding. Then you can use a small piece of vertical trim that compliments it to cover the gap. That's what I did and it really looks nice.<br /><br />2. I didn't put them in the plans because they can go wherever you need them. They are the same boards as the shelf only cut to 13 inch height. You can stagger them as I did on one of my shelves for a cool effect as well. The 2x12 will start to bow in time if you test their strength with long stretches of records without that extra support. I haven't tested it in time but I can tell you that my very full 10 year old shelves haven't bowed even a tiny bit when I have supports every 4 feet. It also seems to help the records from flopping all over those long lengths which you don't want. <br /><br />Hope that answers your questions.

I have molding at the baseboard, so I can't put shelves flush to the wall. Do you think I need to anchor them to the wall because of that, and if so, how do I bridge the gap? I've got three bookcases doing the job right now, and they've never wobbled or anything, but I'd like to be safe. If it matters, I plan to make the shelves eight feet tall instead of six (large collection and a nice high ceiling).<br /><br />2. You recommend supports for shelves wider than four feet, but there are none in the plans, where the shelves are 57". Do they tend to not bow even at that length?<br /><br />Many thanks,<br />JeremyJeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15273275302619650132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-80615236051779437102017-02-22T21:32:00.763-06:002017-02-22T21:32:00.763-06:00Did you actually read the article?Did you actually read the article?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03473919702868047134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-27131078500694143562017-02-22T21:03:10.075-06:002017-02-22T21:03:10.075-06:00How many record does each in hold ?

It will be so tight and heavy that it would be overkill. I screwed the highest horizontal piece to the ceiling though and that added just a bit more stability and that wouldn't cause an issue.<br /><br />I would also run both pieces of the base the full width (no more, no less) of the shelf. I did with mine and then I used a piece of regular trim around the base to cover up the green treat leaving just a dime thickness of space between the trim and the floor so the trim hides the green treat but doesn't touch the floor. That'll look really nice if you do that as well, find trim that suits you.<br /><br />Good luck and please show me pics once it's done!rcheckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14342903208069090236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-89841643149346821532015-08-15T11:50:07.593-05:002015-08-15T11:50:07.593-05:00Thank you so much, so the treated lumber on the fl...Thank you so much, so the treated lumber on the floor should it be screwed or nailed to concrete or just float so to speak.

The base you can do 2 w...Thanks for your feedback. The base you can do 2 ways, and I would use treated lumber for your base with either way since it will be sitting directly on porous concrete and regular wood would rot in no time. But with a nice green treated base the moisture will not effect it at all. <br /><br />I've build a few of these shelves in my basement. The quick and easy way is to just use 1 2x12" green treated piece of lumber cut to the width of the shelf. Make sure it's very flat and heavy. Then start building from there by putting the non treated 2x12" pieces directly on top of that. So your base will be basically (2) 2x12" pieces, a treated on the bottom and non treated directly on top of that as shown in the plans. Screw them together for a very heavy very solid base. From there you build up.<br /><br />OR the cheaper way, uses less wood but requires more cuts...<br /><br />Still use treated wood on the floor, but cut 2X4"s as shown in the pic above entitled "Budget base". It doesn't really save you much money, only a few bucks so I don't know if it's much of a budget. But it works just as good, as long as the 2x4 pieces are nice and flat and cut perfectly to the size of your shelf. <br /><br />Since you know the floor to ceiling is 82 inches, I would make that your set height of the shelf so the ceiling is one contact point and the floor another contact point making it tip proof. Plug those numbers into the blank shelf plans above and you'll have a very solid shelf. To take full advantage of the space I would also use the full width as the width of the shelf. But measure carefully when doing this because when it is that tight, it won't move but if it's too long or too tall it won't fit. Obviously it's better to cut long and cut twice than to cut too short but I'm sure you already knew that.<br /><br />I hope that helps, please feel free to ask any other questions at any time if I missed something,<br /><br />Thanks, <br /><br />Joe (rchecka)rcheckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14342903208069090236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-91880837374328572532015-08-15T11:19:18.068-05:002015-08-15T11:19:18.068-05:00Love these plans thanks so much, I want to build t...Love these plans thanks so much, I want to build this in my basement before I put flooring in on a concrete floor, what or how do I do the base?

You are right, a 2x12" is not a true 2 inch by 12 inch board, but a 2x4 isn't two inches by four inches either, nor a 4x4" etc. Many years ago 2x4s were actually 2 inches by 4 inches. I know only because I have some as wall studs in my house which was constructed back in the 1950s. At some point everything changed (probably for the benefit of the lumber companies) and now wood sizes are slightly less then advertised. Either way, trust me, your records overhanging that much will not damage them in the least. I have had my entire collection stored that way for many years now and they have plenty of surface area to keep them flat and true. Plus, the overhang makes them easier to flip through and handle.<br /><br />In fact, I just finished putting up another set of shelves (same wood dimensions) so I'll be doing a part 2 of this blog to elaborate more for the cats like yourself who pay attention to the details. That's much appreciated by the way.<br /><br />Once again, thanks for the feedback. Feel free to share some pics if you got them. I'm sure everyone reading this would enjoy seeing them!rcheckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14342903208069090236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-11613961513095707372013-01-04T19:50:15.740-06:002013-01-04T19:50:15.740-06:00Finished my shelves and very proud of my workbifci...Finished my shelves and very proud of my workbifci do say so myself.

However if you drill straight up thru S1 thru the ceiling with some thick screws as I did that should make it even less likely to fall over. <br /><br />If it is exceptionally large and heavy you could secure it even more by using small metal L-Brackets and secure them to the under side on the far back right up against the wall of one of the high shelves. After it's secured to the shelf itself then secure it to the wall using some drywall anchors or securing it to the wall studs. <br /><br />Hope that helps!rcheckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14342903208069090236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428138932984789689.post-1937722094743310202012-04-01T15:18:19.992-05:002012-04-01T15:18:19.992-05:00Rchecka, you mention that this shelf could fall ov...Rchecka, you mention that this shelf could fall over.
