Grant,

For my CD player and CDs, I made a simple rectangular box with a nailer
strip on back and mounted it on the concrete wall above my lathe. Same
kind of cabinet construction as an upper kitchen cabinet, except I
wasn't in a cabinet making mood and used scrap plywood. I did drill
some holes for shelf pins so now I have all my CDs in my garage since
I'm not allowed to listen to them in the house anyway.

Dust hasn't hurt the player and I've been seeing MP3 walkmen-type
players for $20s (a far cry from the $300 I spent when they first came
out).

But lately, I've been thinking of switching to a set of "Peltor Race
Tunes" and using those with some kind of ipod device.

Anyone have any experience with the Race Tunes headset?
