Thanks for the info Kevin and Larry! They look just about perfect for my needs. Any opinions on the narrow vs. wide shelves? I'm thinking narrow shelves would be good for most things, while the wide shelves would be good for large sets (bases, etc). (...) (25 years ago, 16-Sep-99, to lugnet.storage)

Well, ABS can´t rust, but I´ve heard about mildew, so a dry place would be good. I just keep my pieces in the boxes, but.... I have no experience from "century-storage". I think that removing all the batteries and such is good, as well as keeping (...) (25 years ago, 16-Sep-99, to lugnet.storage)

Does anyone know of good, lightweight shelving that works well for displaying assembled sets (and possibly boxes and directions)? I'm rebuilding old sets from my childhood and from someone's collection I bought, and I'd like to set them out for view (...) (25 years ago, 15-Sep-99, to lugnet.storage)

(...) Hi Fredrick! As a novice AFOL, I would have to agree with you about the counter productive part. It seems like all I do is sort these days.
