Now in low light I can try out the LED strips. - ( There was a bit of 'light leakage' at the rear due to the length of the LED strip. but i've rectified that now. )

I'm making 20 of these for my new record store. I have wood floors. I'd like to have something on the bottom that protects the floor, but also allows me to move them fairly easily if I need to. What, if anything, has anyone here used on the bottom of theirs?
@cabbages I may take you up on that, as I want the 3 shelf option. WELCOME TO AUDIOKARMA!!!
Here are metric versions.
Disclaimer: I have not assembled mine yet, so no guarantees they're error free. The conversion came from the shop doing my cutting.
Are you talking about the original plans? If yes, I do not see how would you be able to make two rows of 12" LPs with the bottom shelf, middle shelf (each about 3/4") and have it no higher than 24". Unless I am missing something.Now that I've printed out the plan and thought about this a bit I guess all I really need to do is cut everything as normal but just reduce the back and sides down to 24"...just seems there may be a better way to avoid too much waste?
In this case, you may want to raise the bottom shelf a bit for an easier access to the records. Leave room to reach and browse the LPs but keep them higher than on the floor level. I guess your best bet is to modify the plans according to your needs. Don't just go and chop the sides and back to the desired height.Forgot to mention, each rack will have only 1 shelf. I'll need to make 4 of these, so I'm wondering if certain sheets of ply would be for sides and backs only? Just trying to have as little waste as possible.
Thanks. I love coming back and seeing so many builds. This may be my best contribution to the internet ever.To whoever posted the original drawings for these - thank you for a job well done!
I've just arranged to have baltic birch ply cut to these drawings, to make 2 of the 3 shelf versions...and waiting patiently for the parts to arrive.
Any tips on LED lighting solutions or casters that some of you may have used are greatly appreciated.
If anyone wants metric measurements for the 3 shelf, I can get them across to you in scribbled notes if helpful.
Stay pretty.
