I'm looking for ideas for Risers on a Billy (or do you know anyone who makes them to fit Billy?

Thanks!

^ nice. i just got myself one... gonna rip off your display ideas if you don't mind

EDIT: Photo removed.

I was thinking of using jewel cubes as risers. Otherwise, there is always Tap Plastics (there is a location in Mountain View on Castro St.).

Nice display t0fu! I dig the lighting style.

I don't see the risers in either of those pictures.

I think they are just showing you their billies.

I actually like these but do you add on the glass doors seperately?

wasn't she asking for ideas on risers?

yikes...

maybe you put two risers side by side for a detolf?

We can read- I just figured a photo might be helpful if you are looking for a new one or ideas on shelf placement. The original post wasn't real specific.

My recommendations (as noted above) are either 1. jewel cubes, which are cheap and mobile; or 2. Tap Plastics, which can probably custom build risers for your case, provided with specifications.

Bryce- yes, you need to add on the doors yourself. They're just repurposed bookshelves. The doors pop into the holes that are normally used for the shelf pegs.

yes, i was just tryin to show the billy itself, if you want risers, the easiest are the ones they sell at the container store. clear various sizes, your only concern should be how many shelves you actually want to have. other then getting them custom made, i don't know anyone that sells risers long enough to fit in a billy

In the kitchen section of IKEA, they sell a clear (acrylic?) container that is about 18" wide, 3.5" tall and 2.5" deep & it is designed to be hung on the wall (holes for screws on one side). You can flip these upside down & they make a great riser for about $6 to $7.

Is it this one? http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20120577

Wow, that's almost perfect for what I'd like.

BUT I want to display 5"-7" figures in it! I'd really like a wall-mounted acrylic cube display for a group of fight figs is all. I hate Deltofs, I hate most display cab's I see, I'd rather save room and mount them all on the wall (standard 9" Kaiju aside.)

It'd be nice for a large mini collection though.

sorry dude...i don't believe in using purple for sarcasm

Muji (if there's one near you and they do the same stock worldwide?) have been mentioned on here before -

They do some nice 'collection boxes' with cells big enough for small toys.
I use a mixture of pen pots, minidisk boxes, cassette boxes and risers to get different levels on my shelves.

All these would fit in a Billy no problem...

None in the States good sir, or I think maybe 1 in NY, it has been mentioned.

who is it here that has 3 or 4 detolfs sitting on a one shelf bookshelf thing that is painted white?

I believe you're talking about this pic via loudwizard's flickr:

yeah that's it - i need a single box riser to go underneath mine like that

maybe i'll get my dad-in-law to build me one

they sell that box under the detolf at ikea as well
