OK I am off to Ikea this evening to buy 6 detolf units... I will report on how they are. I might also see if I can snag some extra shelves as I am sure I can rig up sommit for extra display space (specifically I'm sure you can buy perspex 'risers' Which can be arranged to hold an extra shelf).

What I want for these smaller shelves ain't exactly heavy (Mechwarrior dark age units for example) so This should be fine and will mean I don't need to weld shelf holders on.

Whats so shocking about that? Yeah I know it won't really hold that much but I'm hoping it will be good enough for a start.

Also I don't want to display my collection by packing everything into 1-2 units as frankly it looks awful. I would rather have 1-3 (depending on size) per shelf.

And also I have several art pieces which deserve a shelf to themselves.

Tis about 210 quids worth. 240 including delivery. (which I need to ensure I can arrange for Sat or Sunday)

As an aside, someone asked about UV film.

I havn't found any for display cabinets, but then I realised that it would be easier/better to coat the windows in the room rather than the cabinets so I looked for that instead:

geez those detolf units are _heavy_

Managed to lift 4 of them up to my flat so-far and gonna need a rest for half an hour before I sttempt the other two.

Nice delivery bloke, dropped them on the first floor for me so I only had one flight of stairs to manage.

And the boxes are quite long so they are hard to balance. -- Edit just noticed on the side of the box it says they weigh 40kg each

I have 3 so four is a lot!! Billy really is the best choice as they are deep and tall and very customizable.. One question NS did you get the doors with the glass windows..I did at first but they were very shady..couldn't really see through them so I returned them.. But the best touch you can add are glass shelves!

Am going to put some perspex over the front when I get round to it though.

It barely fits (way way way overfilled) what was in the old unit.
