Turntable stand

This is one of my favourite creations. I have a sizeable vinyl record collection and wanted somewhere to store them, as well as something other than the old wooden crate to put my turntable on. As like most of my projects, the idea kicked around in my brain for a couple of years before I got around to working on it.
The stand is walnut with spalted maple doors and finished with shellac.

Wow that is awesome. Excellent design. Very reminiscent of old stereo cabinets, yet timeless with those beautiful doors. I love it. Can you tell I’m into that modernist thing? Great job.

That is a nicely made cabinet very fitting to the turntable era .
The doors appear to be solid wood and that is a beautiful looking and wide piece or is it veneer on a core ?

Very nice design. The spalted maple has a nice flow to it.

Thanks guys! Klaus, it is solid wood, I had the beautiful spalted maple left over from another projects, it was great to put it to use for this.

This is fantastic! It’s kind of retro but the newer styled legs set it off. Great pick in woods that make it a piece that anyone would be proud to display. It’s a bonus that it is functional as well as a great work of art for anyone’s front room. Well done!

Nothing too fancy…just a Technics turntable circa 1978
