CD rack under a sloping roof of OSB 3, by Ivo

Create this project yourself with sheet material cut to size by OPMAATZAGEN.nl!

Ivo designed this entirely themselves: from cutlist to finish. Get inspired by the materials used below — and then think about how you would tackle it. We make sure the wood is accurate to the millimetre; the rest is up to you.

Please note: this project was made using the mitre finish, among others. Unfortunately we no longer offer this finish. Take a look at our current finishing options for what's available.

Description

Within the wooden beam construction of my cube house, I have made a division for storing CDs or cassettes in two recesses. The wooden OSB planks coincide exactly with the top of the beams, so that the rack fits exactly within the recess.

DIY: CD rack

I live in a wooden cube house (architect Piet Blom, 1978) where no normal furniture actually fits because almost no wall is straight. Still, I need storage space. This means that you actually have to make everything yourself, or have it made. I'm not that handy and I'm also quite a perfectionist. Luckily I discovered OPMAATZAGEN.nl. The beam construction of the cube fits a rack of 50.5 cm wide and 112.0 cm high. The triangular field next to it is 124.0 cm wide at the base and 104.0 cm high.

Within the pattern of the very regular and precise wooden beam construction, I have filled two compartments with shelves for a CD or cassette rack. The planks are loose in the backwards sloping construction; shelves and back walls are glued together two by two.
