mjarnold7 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I repurposed some Ikea bookshelves that were slightly damaged (bottoms) from my wife. I can finally display my games instead of being hid in a cabinet! Not perfect, and in an unfinished basement, but hey, still think it looks nice. The blinding streak in one pane is from my flourescent light. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Excellent! I especially like how you could get the systems to stand upright in the second cabinet. Looks like you have a few shelves ready to be filled with upcoming homebrews. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Music Synthesizer was a challenge, had to put it in diagonal.....The family trinkets to the right can be cleared out if a massive amount of games come out, lol!

Yah I had to laugh at two things, first, the music synth and I commend you for trying, mine are standing beside my shelves, and second, the friendly looking cat pic will definitely be getting booted in favour of new games at some point. Lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ransom Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Very nice! I like that your collection is stored behind glass doors. For years I bought shelf units without doors, but the last few I've bought have had them and I much prefer them. I think if I replace the included glass with UV protective glass, the result will be a reasonable place to keep things on display. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+the1hatman Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Amazing display! Mine are all currently kept in drawers and I hate that they can't be shown in such a way as yours. Hopefully soon I can do something similar to your layout. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure I saw her in the mid to late 90s. She does a decent show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Great collection. One of my New Year's resolutions is to finally get my collection out of crates from my last move -- except that in my case, it would be a gaming station, not a display station, since I would prepare it for use. -dZ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can help me to organize it better, let me know those two Learning Fun look like they don't feel good where they are. They should move somewhere else. To me, for example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
