ya that link doesnt work, whatever, you can see the empty space behind the tt's, cdj, and mixer in both dj_booth_side_v pic's and dj_booth_top_mi pic.
I think the table might have looked better if it was in a heptagon shape. |

A real piece of art, Zzyzx. And it's functional to boot :) |

don't have a link, but in the coffee table section of ikea, it's called a 'couch table'...perfect size for 2 decks and a mixer, slightly shorter than i'd hope....but it definately works. |

I've used Visio to draw blueprints/diagrams and it does a pretty decent job. |

Heres my design for a record case. I just realized today its rather versitile because it can either be put up against a flat wall or you could put it in a corner and it would still look good.
I previously mentioned trying to design a rotating record case/rack, it can be done, but I dont think it would look good - it would be too big for something that spins. The diameter would be approximately 28", and the last thing I think you guys want is something that big in your room spinning around. |

| Im currently in the process of making a blueprint for a half-heptagon DJ Booth. Should take me a day or 2 to fully complete it, Im going to make several different versions of the table to the best of my imagination. |

my second cdj-100s and my djm-300s are just in the mail coming over any day now! so i'm quite excited, but i have no space where to put them!
my setup will be:
2x cdj-100s
djm-300s
so i'd need to fit those somewhere, but i haven't got that much space! so i was thinking of buying a shelf for those. just one independent shelf that can fit all the stuff. i know it should be pretty strong, so it can hold them. but how strong? shelves aren't really that strong usually, but it'll hold the players and the mixer for sure and there's not gonna be that much extra pressure from me spinning i'd think. what do you guys think of this idea? worth trying or totally useless?!
but if i get the shelf i will probably run into a problem with the speakers, because those are on the other side of the room and i can't fit any kind of monitors onto that shelf, because there's no space. will this affect my mixing? i should have "monitors" there right in front (on both sides) of me, right? to be able to mix better. for me the only thing that is important with my setup is that it is convenient ie it doesn't have to look that good. and if i get the shelf i'll be able to place it near my cd shelf for easy access to the cds, but i'm worried about the shelf and how will it hold up all the stuff and will i need to have my speakers there too! i hope you guys can help me with this one! :D
thanks! (the post might be a bit unclear, but i'm feeling a bit unclear myself atm too, so try to understand) |

| If you want to try that, thats fine... but my only suggestion is if your going to do that, test it first. Put up the shelve and put weight equivalent or more to want the CDJ and mixer would put on it. |

| Like I told skip, you better test the weight capacity of the table top. Turntables are 25-30lbs each and mixer could be between 5-15/20 lbs, depending on what you have. Also the design of that table, be cautious with it because if you distribute the weight incorrectly it is GUARANTEED to tip over = there is no front support. |

cryo that table should be fine. It says it can hold up to 75kg, or a 21inch monitor. My table said it can only hold a 19, and ai have my 21 and my stereo on it. So the weight's they have are a bit low usually just to be precautious. It will most def not tip forward, it is plenty wide, 35 inches, and TTs are what less than 20in deep?
Here is a few pics of the tables I did for blaustigma.
The final pic of the second desk I did for him, yea I realize i didnt clean it up properly on the bottom-shelf/left leg.
This is the first one I did, its done to the specs he wanted, but I figured it be a waste making it 36 high and only having 2 shelfs when you could just add another 6 inches and make 3 shelfs. He turned out liking the 3 shelf on better also :-). |
