War Machine Maquette

[Barbarian]

I would not feel safe with WM on the glass Detolf shelf. I put him on the bottom of my Detolf. I am thinking on putting the IM mark IV on the glass above WM, but the weight worries me.

Anyone have their Mark IV Marquette on the glass Detolf shelf?

I think the classic IM comi weighs more (maybe I'm wrong), and mine has been on a Detolf shelf for a long time now. No problems. No worries.

Well, after a bit of Googling I have come across a few forums that claim that the weight limit of a Detolf glass shelf is approx 13lbs. Since War Machine weighs 15 lbs I'm going to move him to a safer location

Wussy!
Whomever says the limit is 13 lbs. is a damn liar! I have tested it with much greater weight. In fact I am about to sacrifice a shelf and put some iron weights on it to see how much it can handle.

Ugh, I really don't want to move him

If it is true the weight limit of 1 glass Detolf shelf is approx 13 lbs, then wouldn't having 2 glass shelves be sufficient for a 15lb piece?

Anyone good at math here?

Worst case scenario I'll just order double thickness shelves from the local glass shop. They are very inexpensive

Well I think it's not the glass but the thing that hold the glass that may break since it's too damn thin. How about buying some bestas?

You're right. Damn, putting him on the bottom almost feels sinful

And putting him atop....ugh

Okay, 25 pounds on a Detolf shelf so far!

I can't wait for tomorrow but sadly I most likely will miss the delivery since nobody will be at home until 3:30 pm

How much does it weigh?

Great point. The joints holding the shelves I didn't think of that As for Besta's...I personally don't like them

NOOOOOooooo! Too bad, brother. Any chance you can get off work early, or take a long break? Of course, you could always wait another day I guess.

25 and going for 30! True story!

Hell, I'll take pics if'n ya don't believe me.

As for the welds on a Detolf, I wouldn't believe a group of four support welds would break before any piece of glass. I haven't ever personally heard of that happening... yet.

Almost $600 worth. I'd move him to the bottom of the Detolf. Not worth the chance.

WTF??? Did you change anything or just the original setting ?

It's all standard, brother. One standard glass Detolf shelf and all original parts.

Well color me purple. I can't believe my eyes.

BeLIEVE! I am thinking about adding more weight to find the breaking point.
