¿ E X T A N T ? Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 I want to put some records on to the wall but prevent them from getting dusty. But I still want to be able to play them without having to actually open a frame every time I do so. Is there anyone who has seen a product that provides that or knows a DIY method of achieving that?

xfactor675 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Why would you struggle to play those hardly framed records at all?? THE_James_Champ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have four so I can queue up a few records for listening. If I'm digging a cover or gatefold art (you can put them side by side to display a gatefold) I might leave it up for a bit before rotating it out. There is no point in permanent display, just print out a copy of the art and frame it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even I have a few on the wall, but they're albums I have doubles of and are the more expensive variants. I wouldn't hang any more than what I have hanging (the frames were actually gifts) and certainly nothing I had to take down to listen to.

Bladewillisisdead Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 This isn't what OP is looking for but I have one that I use for "new arrival" and "in rotation" records and it's dope. I can't see framed records being anything but a pain in the ass if you want to listen to them. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079THJNLY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_.1rOBbCT0Q6J3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unknown pleasures Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 I find liquid-filled ones are best for hanging. If you pry them apart there’s just enough moisture on one side to get them to stick to the wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Banned User] Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 All my signed album covers are hung up. If removing them from a frame is too much, it's probably not the right thing for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have have a whole wall of three rows of them connected and it looks like a mini record store Edited September 18, 2018 by museummouth daegor, whoa and underwaterzoo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluescreenlife Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 What I do is keep the record in its inner sleeve, behind the jacket, all in a poly bag. If taking that out and putting it on the TT is too much work, maybe consider putting up a poster or art print and listening to Bruno Mars on your iPod instead.
