Tape Displays

Mountainlife · Dec 18, 2011

How are you guys displaying your Tape collections?

I was thinking of getting some of those large 48 or 50 tape wooden holders and putting a piece of plexi over the front

If you have a display setup, can you post pics, thanks

Some of my ideas :-P

wow incredible collection!

I'm thinking of sealing the tapes behind plexi to avoid them from degrading, fading for many years to come... just a thought...

I have 8 of the napa valley 100ct. cassette racks that you can hang on the wall. I wanted to make a plywood table that would let me lay 6 racks down flat and then put a piece of plexi over the top. That way you could see all the names of the cassettes and still use it like a coffee table :thumbsup:

Wife said "hell no" :thumbsdown:

Here is my cassette collection and the story of how I got most of them :yes:

There are MA-R's on Ebay every day......but they usually go for high $$

I'm still trying to find some without paying top dollar, but aren't we all :-)

Just picked this up ... sealed inside the box with foam inserts. I don't dare open it.

Isn't there someone here who made a card table like that? Gluecifer I think?

This made me think back to the woodgrain covered plastic storage units with 3 drawers on the front just like this:

My buddy around the corner had a few of those back in the day, but I never got around to getting any...

They looked SUPER cheap then... and STILL do!! Ha!
