 Risers I know we all talked about this before but I used to get my risers from Staples but they don't sell them anymore  They came in a 3 pack with differant sizes. Besides ebay is there any other stores that carry them? I'd like to just go and get them instead of ordering them.

Re: Risers I think someone once mentioned Storables as carrying them, Or maybe is was The Container Store? I haven't been to either.

Re: Risers http://smalljoes.com/apex-action-figure ... case.shtmlthis place carries a 3-tiered riser- I don't know how the quality is, but I've bought from this site before that they are trust-worthy, but a little slow. phil

Re: Risers greg wrote: I do like that 3 tier one. How slow is slow? like 2-3 weeks from when you place your order, closer to 2 weeks if I remember correctly. It's just one guy who runs the place and he might have a day-job, so somtimes processing of orders takes some time. phil

Re: Risers damaged Bryan wrote: laser creations on e-bay I've said it once I've said it a million times. Pretty quick turnaround with nice and simple acrylic risers. These are what I have right now. ...But those SmallJoes 3 tier risers look sweet! And probably come out a little cheaper when ordering enough to fill a few detolf shelves. Kevlo, can you update to share how the turnaround goes?

Re: Risers greg wrote: These look pretty cool, definetly let us know how they are. I ordered them (2 sets) last Friday and I received them today!  They fit in a detolf nicely (a bit tight getting them in) and are well made and seem pretty sturdy. I'll post some pics soon.

Re: Risers Nate wrote: Thanks Kirkland! Mebbe I can cajole Nate into this project. =D Once Nate gets the hang of it, it's fun to make specific custom risers. I was able to cram all this into one Detolf shelf from 4 risers.

Kevlo, can you update to share how the turnaround goes? I love the Laser Creations risers. I've used them for years. Good quality and always really fast shipping. They'll do custom sizes for you as well, for folks that don't live in Tap Plastics areas.

Re: Risers Hobby Lobby has cheap squares and rectangle boxes you can use but not the two tiered perfect fit for the Deltof. It might help for unusual size toys.
