- Here I will show you how to build a custom High Capacity DVD and Game Shelf with less than 60.00 in wood. It will hold approximately 1440 DVD Cases when assembled to the specs in this video. RETRO GP UNITE!!
You will need a space close to 8' tall and 8' wide. Adjust the materials below accordingly for smaller areas.
2 - 1" x 6" 8' Pine Boards - About 7.00 each
10 - 1" x 4" 8' Pine Boards - About 4.00 each
Total 54.00
Here is where I found the original instructions and changed them for games.

This was super helpful and shows off your craftsman side! You do make a good point in the beginning A LOT of channels have been recently showing off how they build shelfs or show what they installed in building their game rooms! Good Stuff =^)
Dude thanks! Yeah these are still holding up and haven't fallen over yet LOL!
1:16 "heighth" isn't a word.
Cool shelf, though! Simple and very functional.
11:06 as well 😅
I'm actually in the process of building a HUGE rack, that will be VERY similar. But, I will be building two to three of them in total. One thing that I did differently that sped up assembly time, is build TWO shelf spacers that are precut with the correct tilt, rather than trying to manually guess with each shelf. Using them on every shelf addition ensures all the shelves have the same tilt throughout the build. It also eliminates the need to measure between each shelf because this ensures the spacing stays the same as well.
Nice! Looks good, simple and efficient. I should try to do something like this because my 3 Wal-Mart bookshelves are getting saggy.
Definitely an interesting take on storage for games. It's got the creative juices flowin' here. Thanks for the info!
Nintendology 64 right on and you bet!
Looks great Marcus. I can't imagine having to build one by myself. With my brother building my was a huge pain.
Rebel Gaming Club Thanks. Yeah those clamps are the key.
that's a really great idea for storing your games, I usually buy a book shelf from a store and make it work but in future I might look into making my own as then I'll have more flexability.
Retro Zone yep the ones from stores never quite fit right for me. It's always a bit off.
I will be rewatching this one that's a sweet deal for shelfs very nice thanks for sharing
Savagebeast B.M.F awesome!
Looks awesome man, the amount of space you'd save would be heaps. May have to do this myself!
Awesome shelves, thanks for the tips!
You bet!
Awesome man! Looks great. It's the wall of games! :)
The Game Hunters it's crazy how much room this saved. Thanks!
Hey thanks man. We just repainted downstairs a dark brown. So the light brown shelves look ugly so I think I'm gonna build a nice big wall hugging shelf like the one you have here and paint it black. Thanks for the great video!
Awesome good luck and I hope it turned out the way you wanted!!
Very cool. This is something Im looking to do but a bit different. Ive built myself 1 makeshift shelf so far, it's OK but I used plywood because I had that available and it does the job but doesnt look as nice. Im going to look to replace it at somepoint but right now I need more space. My goal is to have different shelves for each console with the space to have every game. I also have a label at the top of the shelf with the Console name.
Awesome! Wish I was that handy! :D I gotta watch some more Home Improvement!
I finally have a reason to use those dumbbell weights I bought!
Twincade Exactly LMAO!!
That is one awesome game shelf!
FLUFFY GAMER Thanks Fluff!
Beautiful!
Looks great
good job man, I need to build a better shelf for all my consoles.
Nice! A couple questions.
1) Do you anchor this to the wall at any point? Asking because it would probably not be a bad idea if you don't haha.
2) Do you treat the wood at all? I've used shellac on mine but would like to line it with some sort of paper or fabric. Something a bit softer/easier on the cases. The raw sanded wood tends to scuff things up over a while.
Tarks Gauntlet Yes I use 2 anchors at the top, they need to either hit studs or use wall anchors. This wood is super smooth, no sanding or staining required. There is no rough spots or anything to mess up covers. The only I've had to look out for is the occasional sap which I'll clean with goo gone.
Yeah, Shellac I used to prevent the sap from seeping out. It's kind of just a sealer. But you clearly bought much higher grade wood than I did so I may need to do extra to fix my collection shelves haha. Thanks for the response!
Nice build. I'm curious to see if these bow over time due to the weight of games.
DatGameCollector I built a book shelf the same way last year but added 2 supports in the middle instead of one and used larger sized 1" boards but it holds lots of weight without any bowing at all. When choosing boards, select ones as straight as possible. One of the ones I used for my game shelf to the right of the new one had a bent board so it looks like it bowed but it's been like that since day one. But yeah, no bowing with that support beam in the middle.
Retro Game Players oh nice as soon as I buy my first house I'm gonna make some nice shelves.
Looks great bud. I always wonder why people who takes the time to build shelves like these doesnt paint them in the process?
I wouldn't paint them but stain them with a mahogany or something so you can see all the wood grains,I think would look better.
"On this episode of This Old Game Collection..."
Man you gots lots of games.
Thanks, yeah I have to stay organized for sure
First Law of DVD/BluRay Collecting:
_The number of discs you own will always grow to exceed your shelf capacity_
Nice hat
“Retro Game Players!”
LOL
Hi Reggie!!!
FLUFFY GAMER did you say hi to marcus?
No! :-)
This is a little extreme, for most... You should have used Nicer wood, but good work.
Oak shelves would have been great.
I am considering making something similar myself, with oak maybe, for my Blue Ray collection. They want too much for the professionally made stuff.
ok that looks great man! i'm gonna keep this in mind for when i redo my gameroom (again :p). i'm always trying to improve and use the most of my space. love the channel! Giving you a sub! Feel free to check out my channel as well! I do pickups, unboxings, reviews, gameplays... Cheers & game on!
woodprix has very useful instructions with all details I need
I did it with Woodglut.
I know you can find solutions to this problem in the Stodoys plans.
