a couple of 2X4s resting on the inner side frames notched out for some xtra display glass
align paines as you see fit
the bottom tanks can face outward for more space
of course I would'nt have done any of this without 6 small glass shelves laying around the basement and some time to waste. The windows facing the old cemetery next door need a little sprucing up

Neat idea! You have the best displays. Just make sure you rotate them once in a while to balance the fading.

Don't worry about it; free weathering.

Looks awesome! I've got most of my 1:18 armor on shelves in glass cupboards from Ikea, but your method allows one to really see the pieces unobstructed.

Mike, thats a great idea for armor, especially when we start running out of space.
I have my planes hanging on the walls and from the ceiling, Your plane racks are
another fantastic idea!! Wonderful collection you got there!
