RSSフィードを読んでいる方にはまだ新しいサイトバナーをご覧になっていないかもしれません。以前のフラッシュバナーは300K以上だったし、ナビゲーションに向いていないじゃないかなと思ったので変えてみた。が、以前のバナーがやっぱり好きと言って来ている人がかなりいるようなので、時間ありましたら、今のバナーと以前のフラッシュバナーが選べるようにしておきます。では本題に戻ります。。。

フィギュアがあちこちから溢れ出している。かわいいフィギュアがいっぱいけど、たまには邪魔になる。そこでなんとか置く場所を増やすために東急ハンズに行って、自作棚の材料を買いに行った。。。
フィギュア ディスプレイ (click to enlarge)
ステンワイヤだ。これを使ってストライクガンダムを天上からぶら下げる。

ガラスカラーアクリルシート。これを320X550何枚か買って、東急ハンズのおじちゃんに切ってもらった。

このBlack & Dekker レーザーガイドを使って棚が歪まないようにする。このレーザーは楽天で入手できる。

このブラケットを使えアクリルシートを固定。どこかのうっざい大家に言われることがなく、自分の壁に穴をあけていく。壁が薄いのでドリルが必要ない。このことにはちょっとびっくりした。イギリスでは壁がレンガで出来ているのでドリルは必要。殆どの家には一家一個のドリルを持っている。

完了!これで今年分のフィギュアの置く場所は確保できた。来年はどうするのか考え中。。。

The new banner is good, and if we can choose between the old one and the new one with a cookie, it'll be perfect ! ;)

Great stuff! It's kinda sad to see that the only market for DIY shelves in US are for closets only. Looks like an interesting idea though, since all my figures and gunpla are sitting on my work desk, and doing their job filling up my desk real good.

There's a closet management system kit sold in Home Depot, but it requires drilling some holes into the wall just for mounting the base "rack" (it's for clothes, mainly. There are holes in them, so, gashapons won't do unless they have big bases). You could cut up Plexiglass for this job, if you prefer.

Looks like it's time for a trip to Pearl this upcoming day-off.

All my figures are in the open on my shelves, they get quite dusty quickly, i think dust gathers because i have a wooden floor, not a carpet, but i dont mind cleaning them from time to time.

Although, a couple of my cheaper gashpon figures have began falling over in this heat in the UK, and i have noticed that the heat seems to be making them lean to one side, hence toppling over >.<

But i geuss thats what you get for cheap figures, my better ones are still standing XD

I like the shelf.Thats the sort of shelf i was looking for in Ikea the other day but they were just too expensive.I need a new shelf because my current one is cluttered with games,figures,manga and loads other anime/manga merchandise and its actually kind of annoying me.Im considering a glass cabenit.
Only problem i have with leaving my figures on shelves is them getting dusty.But Cleaning them isnt such a chore i guess.Nice shelf Danny,its cool.

That Hanging thing looks cool ive some how jerry-rigged my FAZZ (MG) to the ceiling (after nicking a drill from the guys who were doing my house up) sadly that FAZZ has 1 too may falls & Ive given up having to resort to super glue so I put it back in its dark box......but on a more positive not. it was replaced by a perfect grade wing zero  endless waltz custom. so better eye candy ;) Im currently working on Freedom Gundam lightning edition & a MG version of Freedom. the ceiling hangers look good :) you could model the gudams afterwards to look like their in a full out dog fight!
