I have both styles. But have only the one like you ordered now because it currently works ok. The biggest issue becomes you need big one you need small ones then some mediums. trust me I learned the hard way. You get tall things that won't fit in the bins because the ones above are too close. Shelves all the way and then cardboard bins in various sizes for super cheap. I have actually a surplus of shelves in storage for the future. Got them at auction from business that closed. Heavy duty Equipto ones with 8 shelves and 3 x 3 x 8 size. 8 of them for $56.
THough my first shelves came from estate auctions. But they are junky ones from Menards or Home Depot.
Storage is this last place to get fancy expensive stuff when starting out I have learned. Second hand will save you a bundle. Those bins are stupid expensive when you start to add them up.

I hear what your saying but being so cramped on room I don't have space to build a rack nearly big enough to support the amount of boxes I would need. I got these because they will fit in an island area and take up very little footprint. If I had a shop with walls I could come up with some much better ideas

Congrats, Jeff! I wish you the best of luck with this venture. I'm sure I'll be just one of many customers who'll throw some orders your way.

This is awesome news. I already run your towers on nearly every car I own, now, I will just need to expand. Great companies to keep floating and alive, I am confident you can keep them going well.

Hi guys!
I am acquiring both Vintage Team A&L and Factory Works from Daryl. He is spending this week training me on the workings of the company and the machinery. I will still be making the pieces I currently have on file, but will be adding them to the current menu that Daryl offered. It won't be an immediate deal, so please be patient while I get this working. I still have a 50 hour a week job at the same time.
Eventually there will be several rereleases of vintage parts and sets. Just have to bear with me and be patient. I can't start taking orders until I figure out what I have, what i need, and how to make it! Plus this will be an actual business, all legal and legit and stuff, so I need to break some bad habits and get my pricing structure figured out as well as my inventory some part numbers. This needs to happen before anything gets sold. I cannot take preorders or reserve parts.
I can't thank Daryl enough for all the work he is putting into transferring the companies and doing what he can to make sure it will be successful for me.
Really awesome news Jeff, congratulations and looking forward to what's to come!
