Reply to "Help Please - Glenn Snyder Shelves Install"

I just bought a bunch more GS shelves at York last week. Just like GRJ above, buying at the show saves a lot on shipping costs. All I needed to do was carry them out to my truck.

I took the lazy man's approach.  I asked them to leave my shelves on their truck and just drove around to where the shelves were and loaded them up into my car.

John, what advanced algorithm did you run to achieve the exact length and selection of rolling stock and motive power to fill each shelf like that?  Did you rent space on MIT's supercomputer?

Yep, the one that was running the website until recently, that's why their site was so slow!

In truth, I just shuffled a few around until I had minimal gaps.  Since I have stuff of almost any length, sometimes one that wouldn't fit went back in the box temporarily.

I used beer cans for spacers - just the right height and seemed to make the job go easier.

Interesting approach.  I wanted closer spacing, so I cut myself some spacers out of 2x3 lumber.  Mine are 5-5/8" spacing.
