Been Selling and trading a lot lately to get my collection rolling. So the wife let me put another shelf up. I told her it was either another shelf or it was going on the dresser in the bedroom. So here is what i have bought in the past few months. Thanks for the help from some of the oldgasers.

If I were you I would just prepare your wife and buy another set of brackets and another shelf and just stand it in the corner for the inevitable expansion yet to come!

If a full can hits the floor or hard object it is ugly, with a Capital U!... Big time damage!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whereas an empty can will bounce with little to no damage....
Just something to think about when stacking items up high....

Dan, If you want piece if mind, put a strip of black oaktag cut slightly narrower than the width of the can. put the full heavy ones along the botton if you can place the strip across the topof the bottom row, then place the empties across the top of the oaktag strip. this way there's more of a firm contact between the layers instead of the cans just resting lip to lip. Bob is right about a full can falling from 7' high....kiss it goodbye!

Display looks great , I to would be worried about location. I'm sure you can take notes and secure every thing. I would be heart-broken to lose any Item.
