DIY Record Shelves?

I build some out of 3/4 stock aluminum and hardwood. They are very contemporary and very sturdy. I've posted the plans so that you can download them. They are in PDF format, so if you don't have adobe acrobat, there's a link here for that as well (acrobat reader is a free program)

I've never liked the shelf approach. Instead, I like to have the cover facing me (like at a record store). If you'll click on my virtual system below, you'll see my solution--a record cabinet with sliding drawers. My father and I built it. We just kind of made it up as we went along.

Thanks to everyone for the responses.

Shersta:
I have one similar to yours. It's a record rack from a library that got rid of it's LP collection. It's full!

Rives:
Thank you! This is just what I was looking for! I downloaded and printed the plans and am going to make one. I'll let you know how it turns out. Thanks again!

Rives - those look pretty darn nice! Nice job on the DIY!! I will try one myself. Do you have a sense of about how much the materials cost you?

The stock aluminum was clear anodized and I had a machinist drill it out. I bought enough pieces to make 3 units or expand my unit (no the extras aren't for sale). I think I paid about $125 for all the aluminum drilled, brushed, and anodized (yes I had friends and didn't pay full price). I don't remember what the wood cost. I'm sure it would vary quite a bit depending on the wood. I'm considering rebuilding them with more exotic wood, which is pretty easy since they are completely modular.
