The wood is beautiful. It just doesn’t work as well by itself without propping it up against something. Good ideas could be…
• Something that goes in the screw holes that act as a stand
• Upgraded metal “Now Playing” that can replace the plastic
My favorite would be a basic 13”x13” slab of wood. Add a 1/2” wooden strip at the bottom for the record to rest on. Add a wooden peg in the back to lean it back like a picture or painting easel. It would be a statement when no record is there and would support the record without falling over
