OK, so my spare room has started to look like a bit of a bomb site lately as I just haven't got enough space for my collection:
Luckily, retirement means that now I can combine my love of metal with a practical hobby, in this case woodworking and I am coming up with a solution to my space problem!
Here is the new set of shelves I have been working on that just needs some finishing work now and then I can install them:
Anybody else got a collection they would like to share with us? For that matter, are there any hobbyists with creations to share too?

Just put in a pre-order for the "Watching From A Distance" 4x LP boxset 20th Anniversary edition. It's a bit pricey, but some things are worth it!

I have just ordered the latest Panopticon album on 2-LP coloured vinyl from the swedish distributor and paid £38 including postage to the UK. Out of interest I went onto Discogs and there is somebody on there (from France as it happens) selling them for £237 plus 20% VAT. for the same version (1x orange, 1x purple). That is a 750% mark-up!! These price-gougers are getting ridiculous. They buy up limited editions and sell them at insanely inflated prices, depriving real fans and pricing them out. I got lucky this time because they were still in stock with the distributor, but I have missed out in the past as I refused to pay the over-inflated prices from resellers.
