I finally got around to finishing up the additional shelf that I needed to display all of my Skelly globes in the Skelly corner. I still have one to get mounted and in the lineup and at least a couple more I am on the hunt for to finish out the second shelf on the right with just Skelly. But for now I have some others mixed in. Eventually I think I can fill the top right shelf in Skelly too if I can locate a few more balcrank duplicates of the standard ones I already have and a couple more really scarce ones. The ones left that I want are the really scarcer ones that take a little more resources to get so it may be a while on those. I now have to figure out the next expansion location to display my others if and when more Skellys turn up. I can go ahead and add the third shelf on the right if I have to and move the signs and cans somewhere else. The whole display is made with my pvc rings and led bulb design. All 34 globes are lit with one 12volt dc converter and draws a total of about 150 watts and put off almost no heat. If I ever take the time to do it, I am going to post a picture process of how I do the shelf.

Top notch display Gary. If I ever get a permanent home for my globes I'll be looking for your help building the shelves. In my opinion you can't beat the red, white and blue of Skelly.
Always buying Skelly items.
