Samoyed Sabaka Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Have you ever tried stacking these? Just wondering how much weight they might safely support. As far as pricing goes, are these really only $1.50 each? That's pretty good - how much is shipping? Just wondering what the average price per box would work out to. I'm paying around $4.00 each for my ugly long boxes now. On 3/7/2017 at 6:46 AM, Andahaion said: I use these.

I've run across a few websites with comic furniture that look really nice too. I bet most here wouldn't pay for said furniture, but it looks worlds better than most alternative (ie, cheap) ideas. Oakman, your setup is righteous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm paying around $4.00 each for my ugly long boxes now. They are not $1.50. They are made of real wood and I paid about $20/box. They can be stacked. I have them in stacks of three boxes.

STORMSHADOW_80 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Nice setup Oak. Don Rosa had a cool archival type storage for his books that I thought was pretty neat https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search;_ylt=AwrTcYE7jsFY3eUA9HounIlQ?p=Don Rosa Collection basement&fr=yhs-mozilla-001&fr2=p%3As%2Cv%3Ai%2Cm%3Apivot&hsimp=yhs-001&hspart=mozilla#id=1&vid=e176f43d536dbc331c7d0e31a0c33f82&action=view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I use magazine holders on shelves. Keeps them from stress,and makes em very easy to organize each title. Very cool for display, but what do you do in the event of a fire?

Oakman, your setup is righteous. Thanks for the link. Reached out to the seller and they're willing to customize for a nominal fee. I love how mine turned out. I requested inner dimensions of 8" x 11.75" instead of the normal 7.5" x 11" so should fit E. Gerber Silver/Gold Archives 775R just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lego Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Which boardie was it from the Age of Antiquity (10+ years ago) who had that incredible white shelf setup? Chromium? Is he still around? Does anyone have pics of his setup saved? (Ian Levine's was also pretty righteous...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good work. Can you take some more pics of the boxes from different angles? I'd like to see how the SA books fit from the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
