Saw this on one of the blogs I frequent:

For convention purposes (i.e. Forge booth), it has some style to it, it might draw some attention just from its looks, and perhaps most importantly, it is made of small pieces that pack flat, so anyone can haul it. A big advantage over some of the other shelving ideas we might want.

While it is merely someone's design at the moment (I don't see any manufacturer or sales links), it would be easy enough to replicate by anyone with a little woodworking experience. I could make up a CAD file and drop it off at my local cabinetmakers and have them run off any quantity desired, probably in a good quality plywood.

Any thoughts on the design, the practicality of it, and if it is something that should be explored for a future Forge booth?

I think it's an excellent option for later years. Thanks Greg!
