The Store...Uh, Closet...Phase II
Did I mention James had a lot of unbuilt plastic models? :-)

As he's sorting the old boxed ones on the new shelves in the closet, he's cataloging them in a file. He's up to 480 models now and still has about six boxes to finish emptying. The closet is almost full. He may be able, with judicious fiddling, to get the rest of the boxed contents into the closet. However, there were still more models in boxes in one corner of the room.

Today he bought a set of heavy-duty (well, he didn't really need heavy duty, but that's what they had in the proper size) wire shelves on wheels from Sam's Club. These are meant to be used in storerooms in restaurants, laundries, hospitals, etc. They are 72 inches high, 18 inches deep, and 48 inches long, six shelves. Since they're on wheels, once James finishes filling the closet, he can store the shelves in front of them, and move them if he needs to get in the closet.

We emptied out the models and about three-quarters filled the shelves. I keep joking with him that he needs to open a store. Did I mention there are also about six to eight big Rubbermaid containers full of models in the shed? That's a lot of plastic.
