Expedit question (I know, I know)

Alright...just put together a 4x4 expedit and shit is a little shakey and not as sturdy as I was expecting. Is this normal or should it be really rock solid? There are a couple of contacts that are not super tight (I'm gonna get them with a rubber mallet), but it is only 2 or three. Any advise to make it a little more stable? Also, how critical is it to mount it to the wall?thanks in advance.-M

    sounds like you fucked up, we've got two over here(4x4 & 5x5), neither is attached to the wall. Shit on the 4x4 I didn't even install those braces for the back. Does yours sway back and forth or side to side? You tighten down those allen bolts all the way?

    Side to side. but only a little. Hopefully when I got back with the mallet, shit will tighten up.

    try loading up some records on it, the weight helps hold them down too. You should be ok

    Did you put the anchor screws in on the tops and bottom? It will always sway a bit but will become more sturdy when you add in your records.

    Add records starting from the bottom up.
