 Subject:  Re: What do you to do with your old/finished kits?List thread.  
  
 Date:  May 25, 2008
 From:  Al Glover 
I like to keep my built kits and put them in one of two glass display cabinets in the living room. That said, I have a lot more finished kits than I have display room, so I store the overage in those large flat plastic (Rubbermaid) type containers and stack them in the "Man Building" where I build them. I occasionally rotate them when I get bored of seeing the ones on display. As much money as they cost these days, I hate to just discard them after they are built. Besides, if I didn't want to look at them, I wouldn't build them.

In my case though, that's only part of the story. I am also the storage repository for about 1/4 of the built Glenn Bartolotti kits, so there are my crappy kits in one area and the Bartolotti Wing.
