Gibbo88 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Hi all Brought some shelving and just starting to layout my fossils and minerals this has barely touched them and still have about 8 boxes to sort, think I'm going to need more shelves.

oldtimer Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 From the distance shot you have some very nice fossils to display. I see a few I wish I had. But. BTW you will never have enough space, shelves, cabinets, drawers, and places to display. Your collection will continue to grow as the obsession continues. Good luck. Thanks for sharing.

ynot Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Looks like some nice pieces. Can We see some closer pictures? Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Bobby Rico Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Great collection ,very interesting. Looks like you can add a couple more shelves into your unit. Just a thought I never stop to think when I am collecting or purchasing fossil do I have room for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruitbat Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 It looks like you have a very nice collection. I agree with the others...you NEVER have enough display space! I have more fossils in boxes than I do on display! -Joe Illigitimati non carborundum Fruitbat's PDF Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not overload a plastic shelf unit! We don't want to hear that horrible crash as hundreds of fossils get ruined. You Just have to dedicate a wing of the house strictly for displays. You can always move your sleeping quarters into the garage. Seriously what's more important, you being able to live comfortably or having an awesome display thats the envy of your peers?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbo88 Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 Thanks for all the replies the shelves have a maximum of 50kg per shelf. As I work in a cheese factory I weigh everything in blocks of cheese lol sp per shelf equals 2 blocks of cheddar and 1 block of mozzarella lol. I will post some closer pics soon. Thanks for looking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Andy- Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 You do have some incredible fossils! Unpacking boxes of your babies onto new shelves is the best feeling in the world, isn't it? Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday!

Gibbo88 Posted January 20, 2018 Author Share Posted January 20, 2018 It is indeed but you always find the ones you forgot you had and all the memories come flooding back.
