[Here,](http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/yojimboguy/vwp?.dir=/My+home&.dnm=DVD+shelf.jpg&.src=ph&.view=t) tucked im like a glove between a thermostat that was my width limit, and some light switches which were my depth limit. It is 32"W x 72"H x 10"D. It has exactly enough space for 6 DVD shelves plus 2 CD shelves.

It will hold about 300 DVDs, and 150-200 CDs. Get a few extra shelves (it comes with 6) and you could configure it for 10 CD shelves, probably about 800 CDs.

Man, that’s a beauty. Fits _just_ in there. Where’d you buy it?

It’s from a furniture maker called [Baker Road](http://www.bakerroad.com/index_st.html), though I can’t find this exact piece on their website.

Looks like the page is [http://www.bakerroad.com/st\_3.html](http://www.bakerroad.com/st_3.html)

Congratulations, looks like you found yourself a real quality bookshelf that fits perfectly. I read their specs, and I’m drooling here. I think that I could spend a few kbucks there very easily indeed.

Hmmm…I was looking for a similar thing for my huge CD collection recently. Ended up going with a cool barrister-bookcase design. Delayed getting a second one, since I didn’t have the money at the time, and in the meantime, they discontinued the line.

Goddamn it.
