Now that 'U-SPIN revolving Record Storage System' looks a winner:

Haven't noticed that before from his site. 👍
Sounds very handy but hate to think how much it costs. They're the sole importers of my Sugden phono.

A Little Bird tells me: Constructed in Hawkes Bay from 20mm Bamboo Panels, hand-sanded and oiled to a smooth finish. The heavy duty mechanism allows it turns smoothly and easily. A five - layer high unit will hold over 1300 records......Free up your wall space!

Quite heavy, I would say - bamboo wood + 1500+ records equals 350+kgs, is my guess.

They do include a warning
"The units are purchased per layer and can be assembled up to 5 layers high. This size will have a weight of about 400kg (880 pounds) so make sure it is placed in a suitable spot."

Looks like a good idea ..... and then .. wouldn't want that stack anywhere a decent earthquake could hit. Oh, wait, that's most of NZ.
Also you'd need to be lying on your stomach to check the LPs on the lower level. This could be rectified by putting it on a plinth. Oh, wait, what about the earthquakes? O.K. Two layers on a plinth and that's it!
