Definitely my fave ilx thread after 11 odd years here. Amazing work James. You could make a fortune selling these. Esp if you charged for different album covers made to order.
I know I'd buy one. Put me first in the queue if you do! I wish I had the skills to make one, was always hopeless at art.

pfunkboy (Algerian Goalkeeper), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:19 (fourteen years ago)

The store should be called TINYL. That is all.

Only just saw this (I dont look at ILM much). this is the coolest most adorbs thing I ever saw!

Lindsay NAGL (Trayce), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 22:43 (fourteen years ago)

I'll put together some instructions tonight and upload the PDFs somewhere after that. I checked and it's a few more than 3 or 4 pages. My memory is falling apart from sniffing all the glue involved in this thing, obviously.

next project: tiny model of a 3-story tower records ca. 1995, complete with escalator, metal detectors, and classical-music room separated from the rabble by thick glass.

Six inch tall version of me thumbing through all the UK magazines in the basement of the Toronto location.

classical-music room separated from the rabble by thick glass.

haha, yeah. actually i think the Jazz room had that, too -- at least, the one at Belden and Clark in Chicago did, I'm pretty sure

Stormy Davis, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 06:20 (fourteen years ago)

yeah, it did.

xp Not only did the jazz room at the Tower in Chicago have rabble-proof glass, but the "Pop/Vocal/Easy Listening" room had it, too. The latter was where I found Ray Charles, after looking through every other possible section for about an hour.
